According to recent leaks, the upcoming chapter of Fortnite is expected to introduce new swinging and prone mechanics when it is released later this year.
Earlier this year, the supposed Fortnite 2024 roadmap was leaked, revealing potential collaborations and events that players could look forward to. However, it appears that there may be even more in store for the game’s future.
A recent leak has brought to light two new movement mechanics that are expected to be included in Chapter 6, which is scheduled for release on December 1. These additions are anticipated to be accompanied by other gameplay enhancements.
According to a post on X by renowned Fortnite leaker HYPEX, Chapter 6 is set to introduce swinging and prone mechanics.

We have previously encountered similar mobility tools, such as Spider-Man’s Web Shooter and Grapple Gloves, that enable players to swing. It would be intriguing to observe how this feature would be integrated into the game.
On the contrary, prone is a completely novel addition to the Battle Royale that has not been seen before. Those who have experience with games like PUBG or other popular shooters are certainly familiar with this feature.
Prone position involves lying face down on the ground. It is often utilized to conceal oneself from the enemy for various purposes such as healing, reloading, or changing position.
This technique is also employed to conceal oneself and effectively snipe unaware opponents without risking personal safety. Although it may be premature to consider Chapter 6, the potential introduction of these mechanics will ultimately determine the future of the game’s meta.
HYPEX additionally mentioned potential new modes, Creative Pet Support, and a potential Floating Island theme, in addition to two new movement mechanics.
Further information that has been released indicates that a female K-Pop group collaboration will likely be added to the game in the near future. Overall, it seems that there will be plenty to anticipate in Fortnite’s upcoming chapter.
