A huge battle took place today in Fortnite<\/em>‘s most recent live event – which featured a gigantic mech, as well as some hints for what to expect from the game’s next season. If you missed the rollercoaster-like experience, you can check out what went down in the video above.<\/p>\n Before the event kicked off properly, players were transported to what appeared to be a frosted-over space station, where they could kill time by using huge guns to clear away an array of asteroids that circled the station while listening to characters like Agent Jones and The Origin bicker over a loudspeaker. They were then given a mission: stop a powerful weapon that could wipe out all life on the island.<\/p>\n It turns out, that space station actually housed a giant mech (one that looks oddly familiar), which made its way to the island to fight off the invading forces. Players didn’t pilot the mech itself, but instead took control of turrets to destroy tanks, blimps, and other armed forces. The early stages of the event played out a lot like a hectic arcade game, albeit one with some beautiful cutscenes interspersed amongst the action, as well as the occasional quick-time event to do things like heal the mech or whip out a giant laser sword .<\/p>\n
