Fortnite Zero Point brings NPCs and more changes
Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 5 – Zero Point has officially kicked off, bringing several changes to the game. First, the map now has NPCs scattered around it. Players can pick up quests from these NPCs to earn gold bars which can be spent on rewards, upgrades, jars, and more. Fortnite is available to play for free right now on Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5, Nintendo Switch, mobile, Mac and PC.
Fortnite players can interact with NPCs on the map, each of which offers unique challenges and rewards. Some will let you challenge them to a fight for a powerful weapon, while others can be hired as backups, with Mancake being a clear beast in combat. NPCs come in a variety of familiar guises that have all been released as standalone skins on the Item Shop or through the various Battle Passes released since Fortnite launched in 2017.
Fortnite players who start a bounty in Chapter 2 Season 5 - Zero Point will see that part of their map is now highlighted, showing where their bounty objective is. Similar to Call of Duty: Warzone, if you hunt a bounty target and someone else eliminates them, or if they eliminate themselves, you still get the gold bars as a reward. When you die, some of those gold bars are dropped, but most of the gold bars carry over to the next match. Since Weapon Enhancers have been replaced with NPCs that upgrade weapons, it makes sense that a percentage of Gold Bars carry over to the next match.
