#GamingBytes: Fortnite Halloween themed event teased by Epic
Halloween season is upon us and most game developers are trying to capitalize on the festive mood with themed events. Fortnite developers, Epic, has always been ahead of the curve when it comes to adding relevant content. In this context, its recent series of cryptic tweets might signal the arrival of a special Halloween-themed event to the beloved Battle Royale. Read about it here.
The tweets which tease the event
Developers Epic teased the event through cryptic tweets. The studio tweeted twice, the first saying "Costumes and dancing / Partner up, be wise. / They could be friendly / Or a ghoul in disguise". The second was even more ominous saying "Tombstones quake / Keep your finger steady / The circle will close / Better be ready". Both tweets used the 'Fortnitemares' hashtag.

What do the tweets depict?
The first tweet gave players a glimpse of an unidentified character or skin that might be coming to Fortnite. Considering that Fortnite often introduces skins pertaining to relevant occasions, this seems like a safe guess. The second tweet showed gamers a smaller version of the perplexing Purple Cube, that Fortnite players had lovingly dubbed Kevin. Notably, the tweets are appearing at 24-hour intervals.
Jigsaw falling into place
While the cryptic tweets are puzzling, the persistent community has been looking for clues. One gamer pieced two tweets together and it appears as though the unidentified character from the first tweet is holding the miniature cube from the second. However, the picture is not clear yet, and this is just speculation. Once more tweets come out, Epic's intended puzzle should be clearer.
