It's time for another new Fortnite season, and in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4: Last Resort, that means tons of new weapons, returning favorites, eight new battle pass skins, three new places of interest (POIs), and a lot more.

A new season can be dizzying for players, so we've rounded up everything new you'll want to learn about in one place--right here! From new weapons and vehicles to all the skins, including a new Star Wars character, here's Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4 in full.

This season's battle pass is highlighted by the latest Star Wars crossover, with Rosario Dawson's Ahsoka Tano coming to the game later this season as the midseason bonus skin. That leaves seven others to unlock through the first 100 levels of the pass, including a second crossover. In that case, it's in the form of TikTok star Khaby Lame, who marks the first time a new Icon Series skin has been included in the battle pass.

The other six characters all come from Epic's own imagination, including heist team leader Nolan Chance, vampiric villain Kado Thorne, and pilfering heroes such as getaway driver Piper Pace, muscular Fish Thicc, hacker Mae, and Antonia, a «masked maven.»

For many players, the best part of a new season is the new loot pool, combining unvaulted weapons, returning weapons, and brand-new weapons to give players a new arsenal to toy with all season. This season has a ton to offer, including a bundle of players' all-time favorites. Find all the new weapons in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4 here.

The Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4 map features three new POIs, and unlike recent seasons which concentrated major changes to one area, this time they're sprawled across the island. These new areas are, in the story, belonging to the vampiric villain, Kado Thorne, who will no doubt play into this year's Halloween event in October.

In each case, Sanguine Suites, Relentless Retreat, and Eclipsed Estate are heavily guarded with laser grids, cameras, and armed guards. Learn more about the new map in our Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4 map changes guide.

Augments have become a permanent part of Fortnite--at least for Chapter 4--and this season once more introduces new ones while bringing back some older favorites. The full list to start the season includes the following Augments:

A brand-new mechanic coming this season is Survivor Medals. Here's how it works: As you play, you'll want to complete Survivor Quests in battle royale or Zero Build. You'll be tasked with outlasting opponents while also eliminating a certain number of opponents--this seems to prevent camping.
