New Heist-Themed Gameplay and Map Updates

Embracing the heist motif, "Lawless" transforms the Fortnite island with new points of interest (POIs) such as banks and trains ripe for looting. Players can engage in elaborate bank heists, requiring specialized tools like drill guns, explosives, or laser drills to breach vaults brimming with valuable loot and in-game currency. These additions promise to elevate the strategic depth and excitement of matches.

Collaborations and New Skins

This season features a notable collaboration with the iconic fighting game franchise, Mortal Kombat. Players can look forward to acquiring skins of legendary characters Sub-Zero and Scorpion. Sub-Zero is accessible through the Battle Pass, while Scorpion will be available for purchase in the Item Shop. These skins come complete with unique weapons and emotes, including Scorpion's signature "Get over here!" move, adding a nostalgic touch for fans.

Battle Pass and Unlockable Content

The Chapter 6, Season 2 Battle Pass offers eight new skins, each embodying a "robber" aesthetic to align with the season's theme. Highlights include a character adorned with a traffic cone and the inclusion of Sub-Zero from Mortal Kombat. Additionally, players can unlock a variety of cosmetic items, weapons, and emotes by progressing through the Battle Pass tiers, enhancing their in-game experience.

Season Duration and Progression

"Lawless" is slated to run from February 21, 2025, until May 2, 2025, providing players with 71 days to complete the Battle Pass and unlock all available rewards. To achieve this, players should aim to level up approximately 2.82 times per day. Engaging in daily and weekly missions, participating in events, and exploring new heist opportunities are effective strategies to maximize progression and fully experience the season's offerings.
