If Fortnite holds true to form, though, they&#8217;ll likely have some kind of game mechanic associated with them. Fortnite has made a habit of carrying over the mechanics of previous seasons into new seasons, such as the Hop Rocks from Season 4 and Rifts from Season 5. If this tradition holds true, it seems safe to assume that the cube shards left on the map will allow players to take on the Shadow Stone&#8217;s ghost form. This was a central mechanic from last season that allowed players to phase shift into a spectral ghost, teleporting through walls and moving faster around the map.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sc-card-starred-link\">\r\n  <div class=\"sc-card-starred-link__body\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-starred-link__row clearfix\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-starred-link__col-logo\">\r\n        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-starred-link__img\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/spider-man-spiderman-192.jpg\" width=\"100px\" height=\"100px\">\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-starred-link__col-title\">\r\n        <p class=\"sc-card-starred-link__title\">2018 holiday video game gift guide<\/p>\r\n        <a class=\"sc-card-starred-link__button\" href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/2018-holiday-video-game-gift-guide\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer sponsored\">Read Now \u25ba<\/a>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <a class=\"sc-card-starred-link__link\" href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/2018-holiday-video-game-gift-guide\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer sponsored\"><\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n<p>What else can we expect for Season 7? Well, it looks like a storm is coming&#8230; literally. Hop into the Fortnite map and you&#8217;ll see a massive wall of storm clouds heading directly for the map. It seems we&#8217;re in for bad weather, and those close seem to indicate one monster of a blizzard. This and other major clues point to Season 7 being winter themed. The release of the arctic-themed Deep Freeze skin bundle seems to indicate this, as does the fact that Fortnite&#8217;s last few seasons have had seasonal themes. This would mean the return of winter-themed skins from previous seasons, as well as the addition of new ones.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_114915\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-114915\" style=\"width: 840px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-114915 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/FNBR_LastChanceHoliday-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"fortnite season 7 holiday\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/FNBR_LastChanceHoliday-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/FNBR_LastChanceHoliday-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/FNBR_LastChanceHoliday-768x433.jpg 768w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/FNBR_LastChanceHoliday-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/FNBR_LastChanceHoliday-664x374.jpg 664w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/FNBR_LastChanceHoliday-238x134.jpg 238w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/FNBR_LastChanceHoliday-436x246.jpg 436w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/FNBR_LastChanceHoliday-370x208.jpg 370w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/FNBR_LastChanceHoliday-304x170.jpg 304w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/FNBR_LastChanceHoliday-1200x675.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/FNBR_LastChanceHoliday.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 840px) 100vw, 840px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-114915\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image courtesy <a href=\"https:\/\/www.epicgames.com\/site\/en-US\/home\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Epic Games<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>One last major discovery: intrepid Redditors have discovered something massive concealed in the blizzard clouds. Check out this Reddit post to see it:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"reddit-card\" data-card-created=\"1543613741\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/FortNiteBR\/comments\/a1fu98\/the_iceberg_wont_be_accesible_this_season_cause\/\">The iceberg wont be accesible this season cause you cant collide with it. HUGE thanks to u\/aprotis for the method on getting here!<\/a> from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/FortNiteBR\">r\/FortNiteBR<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>That&#8217;s right: there&#8217;s also a colossal iceberg on a collision course with the map, and that includes a tower or fortress of some kind perched atop it. This, as well as the storm itself, means at least part of the map will be blanketed in snow.<\/p>\n<p>So, when will all this winter-themed wonderment kick off? Officially, Season 6 is set to end December 5, but Epic has been flexible with release dates before. Season 5, for example, was extended by several days to allow players one last chance to collect Battle Pass rewards. So, though we don&#8217;t know exactly when, it&#8217;s safe to say players will be able to snag their Season 7 passes and start their snowy frolicking by the beginning of December.<\/p>\n<!--
