Rift Encounters were introduced to Fortnite in Chapter 4, but the way they work brings together elements from throughout the game’s past seasons. Now Fortnite OG is underway, taking players back in time to Chapter 1’s map, they’re a tool to access future technology.
In Fortnite OG, Rift Encounters work slightly differently from how they have done so far. While they still appear randomly across the map and pull in beneficial items and characters, they no longer do so from past seasons. Instead, they pull from what is currently the future in Fortnite, providing players with massive advantages should they encounter one in a match.

Rift Encounters are random Rifts that appear somewhere in the map in Fortnite OG, bringing items from another time in Fortnite’s history into the map for players to loot alongside an NPC who will protect that loot.
Once they’ve appeared, players should find it easy to track down these Rifts because they destroy any breakable objects close to them. What will appear once the Rift has triggered is an NPC with a few chests and items. These are always beneficial to the player, but some are better than others, depending on their rarity.
The only way to find Rift Encounters is to explore the map in Fortnite OG. There’s no way to predict them, and they can appear anywhere on the map at any time. They’re not like standard Rifts that players can jump into and teleport into the sky. These Rifts appear, usually with a noticeable audio cue and exclamation mark on the screen for any nearby players.
Rift Encounters can trigger without any players being close to them. It’s worth keeping this in mind because all that could be left is an NPC that looks like they’re phasing through time and a collection of loot to gather up before moving on.
Below, we’ve listed all the Fortnite OG Rift Encounters it’s possible to see in a match. The only one we’ve managed to confirm in-game is the Grapple Glove, but prominent leaker iFireMonkey has explained that the other Rift Encounters and their associated items will be coming to the season in the following weeks.
One point to remember is that these items could be from outside the standard Fortnite OG loot pool. This means players can pick up incredible items that will help them with a match if they keep their eyes and ears out for Rift Encounters.

As you’re diving through the map in your umbrellas, surfboards and Kuramas, you’ll notice that some spots of the map are now colored in gold in Fortnite OG.
Fortnite’s maps are always packed with weapons and items for players to gather and cause havoc with. It’s the essence of its battle royale mode, but some matches can see players go long periods of time without them, so it’s handy to know where Chests and Ammo Boxes are.
Fortnite players rejoice — you no longer need to return to the lobby after every single match, or accidentally press the ‘report player’ button when trying to play again. After days of the button being missing, you can finally press ‘Ready Up’ again immediately after a game finishes.
Marshall Never More is a skin coming to Fortnite alongside The Big Bang Event and Eminem collaboration. In addition to the new skin, players can unlock the exclusive Marshall Magma Style that won’t be around forever, one that will set them apart from other Fortnite fans.
If there’s one thing that Fortnite has in spades, it’s the wide variety of iconic skins spanning multiple sub-cultures, celebrities, and games. However, there are skins and cosmetics that aren’t really rated for the younger crowd, and with the new age restriction, that leaves fewer options for those players.
Call of Duty: MW3 has a plethora of modes for players to flit between as they become frustrated with one and need a break. The Experimental Playlists are one of the best because they’re unlike anything currently in the game’s core rotations.
Players were pleasantly surprised when Epic Games added the Runaway Racer skin to Fortnite OG Season at no additional cost. The only caveat is that players need to work harder than they’ve ever worked in-game to unlock it.

In a crossover I never thought I'd be writing about, three Newcastle United FC (NUFC) players descended on xQc, iShowSpeed, Clix, and Mongraal with shotguns (in Fortnite) and laid waste to them in just under two minutes at 1am. Speedy HQ shared a clip of the wipeout on Twitter where you can hear all four streamers getting progressively madder at footballers they don't know from what is objectively the best city in England.
