Frequent Fortnite leaker, FortTory, managed to glitch the games menu and revealed the giant spherical Doomsday Device. It is unclear whether this menu will feature will appear in the game or whether it is a recycled asset, but as FortTory also pointed out, it looks like players needed to collect three gold bars that seem to be a key part of this menu.
The three gold bars featured on the menu are said to be part of an upcoming agency quest where players have to find and collect them in Midas’ room. It seems that this challenge will be an important step in moving forward in the Fortnite narrative and it will be interesting to see how the challenge and Doomsday Device develop in the future. At the moment, there is a lot of content in Fortnite and many will be happy that there seem to be even more narrative threads and challenges to explore in the future.
With rumors of underwater swimming coming to Fortnite, it will be interesting to see if the game adds mechanics and whether the Doomsday Device has a central role in shaking things up. Players will be eager to see if these leaks come to fruition and see how rumors become tied together, yet for now, there are plenty of avenues to enjoy in Fortnite.
