Last year, Fortnite OG took us back to Chapter 1, and we all had such a great time that Epic Games decided to try something similar, but not quite the same, with Fortnite Chapter 2 Remix. This new throwback season is taking up to the early parts of Chapter 2, when we first met folks like Midas and Meowscles, but this trip latest trip to the past is a little busier than OG was thanks to a large pile of music collaborations--with Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Ice Spice and Juice WRLD all receiving skins, as well as battle royale locations and weapons based on them.

So even though Fortnite Chapter 2 Remix is only going to last for 30 days, the 32.00 update is adding quite a lot of new stuff to the game--more than your typical season launch, certainly. With this guide we'll show you around everything this new season has to offer, from new weapons, to the new map and battle pass, and all the collabs in store in Fortnite Chapter 2 Remix.

Fortnite Chapter 2 Remix Battle Pass

We're coming off a season in which the entire battle pass was a collaboration with Marvel, and we're now entering a season in which the battle pass has no collabs whatsoever. Instead, like last year's OG Pass, this Remix Pass will consist entirely of remixed and hybridized skins from early in Chapter 2. Despite being shorter than a normal pass, at only 70 tiers vs the usual 200, the Remix Pass will cost full price. But at least it has more skins than the OG Pass did. The skins on the Remix Pass are:

• Meowdas (Midas x Meowscles)
• Undercover Skye (Skye with a Guff mask)
• Dynamo TNTina (Dynamo x TNTina)
• 1-Ball (a remix of 8-Ball)
• Chaos Director (female Chaos Agent)

New Weapons and items in Fortnite Chapter 2 Remix

With the shift into Remix season, almost the entire loot pool is being swapped out--weapon mods are gone, and the long and glorious reign of the Gatekeeper Shotgun is finally at its end. In their place will be a collection of weapons and items from Chapter 2 that will rotate weekly. Some things will stay all season, some things will stay for only a week. But I hope you like sniping--because after a season without many long-range weapons, one-shot snipers are coming back.

It's not all about the guns, though. Snoop Dogg is bringing with him to Fortnite his 1966 Cadillac DeVille lowrider with hydraulics, which will help get you around the map in surprisingly fun style.

Here are your Remix Chapter 2 weapons.

Map changes in Fortnite Chapter 2 Remix

The entire Chapter 5 map is gone now, and it's been replaced with a map based on Chapter 2 Season 1, featuring the return of old favorite landing spots like Dirty Docks, Lazy Lake, Slurpy Swamp and Salty Springs. But it's not a 1:1 recreation--at the center, The Agency has been replaced with the Snoop Dogg-themed Doggpound--and the map will evolve dramatically over the course of the month with the addition of new themed locations based on Eminem, Ice Spice and Juice WRLD. Yes, that's right, the late Juice WRLD is coming to Fortnite during Remix Season.

One of the biggest changes that we expect to occur during the month: a big flood that should add lots of new water in the interior of the island, which will also mark the return of motorboats for the first time since Chapter 4. So that's very exciting. For a more detailed look at the Chapter 2 Remix map, check out our breakdown of the map changes in Chapter 2 Remix.

New musical artist skins in Fortnite Remix

Each week when a new themed location is added to the map based on a popular musical artist, we'll also get corresponding skins in the item shop. We're starting off with Snoop Dogg, who is headlining Fortnite Festival Season 6--Snoop has a skin in the new Festival Pass, which has been redubbed the Music Pass, and he'll have an additional skin and set of cosmetics in the shop as well.

In Week 2, we'll get a new Eminem skin (his fourth!), in Week 3 we'll get two Ice Spice skins, and in the fourth and final week we'll be getting a free cel-shaded Juice WRLD skin, and it seems there will also be a standard Juice WRLD skin in the shop as well.

Reload changes

Fortnite Reload mode is getting two major additions during Chapter 2 Remix: a solo mode for both ranked and unranked, in which every player gets three lives; and a new map based on Chapter 2 locations. The new map will be the only Reload map for the first ten days of the season, and from then on both maps will rotate every 30 minutes.

Kicks

Fortnite is introducing an entirely new type of cosmetic starting Nov. 12: shoes. Everyone who gets the Remix Pass will be granted a pair of Air Jordan 1 high tops that fit on more than 500 current skins, and some funny shark slippers will also be available in the shop. Epic claims that Kicks will work for 95% of Fortnite skins by the end of next year, which means this will be the next great way to make your favorite serious fictional characters look undignified.

The long-awaited locker update

Fortnite Chapter 5 was a disaster for the locker interface, introducing all sorts of unnecessary new problems and inexplicably splitting the locker into a bunch of completely separate segments with individual presets. Despite promising fixes in the middle of December, Epic Games made no perceivable improvements to the locker UI during Chapter 5 aside from re-adding the ability to shuffle those pointlessly segmented presets.

But in Chapter 2 Remix, finally, Epic has finally re-unified the locker, and increased the number of presets everyone has from 100 to 200. For some unknown reason, these changes are coming at the cost of being able to put the presets on shuffle. Epic promises that the locker shuffle will again be re-added "soon," but recent history tells us that Epic's idea of "soon" may be a lot longer than yours.
