Fortnite’s Chapter 5 Season 2 is dubbed “Myths and Mortals,” and is full of gods and prominent figures from Greek mythology. The island has also gained points of interest based off of these myths.
It’s no surprise that you’ll see the likes of Zeus, Cerberus, and Artemis roaming around the island (and you can unlock them as skins via the battle pass). There are quite a few other things going around the island, including an updated loot pool with mythics that drop specifically from these NPCs.
Below we explain the map and loot pool changes for Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2.

The map has been updated with tons of locations from Greek mythology, including The Underworld, Mount Olympus, and the Brawler’s Battleground (home to Fortnite’s rendition of Ares). You can see the full map below:
