Fortnite Glitch Results in Aloy and Lara Croft Team-Up Delay
While Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 5 brought players a strong bounty-hunter theme with the Mandalorian, the Predator, and more, Chapter 2 Season 6 has brought fans a "primal" theme, greatly altering the map to a more wild state with animals, new Primal weapons, and a crafting system, among other features. Of course, fans were excited to see which skins would be included with Season 6's Battle Pass, and many agree that it did not disappoint.
Along with Raven of Teen Titans, fans who purchased the Battle Pass can unlock Tomb Raider's Lara Croft, now joining others like Master Chief and Kratos as part of Fortnite's "Gaming Legends" series of skins. Just earlier this week however, fans were ecstatic to learn that Aloy from Horizon Zero Dawn would also be joining the fray as one of Fortnite's Gaming Legends. Along with the skin, a special Lara Croft and Aloy team-up mode was announced, but there now seems to be issues that are delaying it.
The "Team Up! Aloy and Lara LTM" was scheduled to begin today on all platforms, however, the official Fortnite service update Twitter account FortniteStatus announced that some players were experiencing a glitch where the LTM would not appear in their game. Although Epic Games initially stated that it was working on a fix, it later tweeted out that the mode will be delayed until the week of April 19.
Although Fortnite players don't know when exactly to expect the Team Up LTM to return next week, FortniteStatus let fans know that it will post an update on when the new mode becomes available. The special LTM was set to outfit players as either Aloy or Lara Croft in a Duos match, where the player as Aloy would be limited to Bow weapons, while the teammate as Lara Croft would be limited to the Dual Pistols. Crafting and upgrading weapons was set to be a major focus of the LTM as well, since players would be incredibly limited in their choices.
Rest assured, even though the Team Up LTM is delayed, players are still able to purchase the Aloy skin, the Blaze Banister Back Bling, Aloy's Spear Pickaxe, the Glinthawk Glider, the Shield-Weaver Wrap, the Heart-rizon Emote, and the Aloy Skywatcher Loading Screen from the Item Shop. While fans were surprised to see a Horizon Zero Dawn crossover come to Fortnite, many agreed that it fits Season 6's primal theme very well.
Earlier this week, Fortnite also added the new Chonkers Tires to the game, which allow players to modify vehicles for off-road driving, along with monster truck-like suspension. Players expect to see other ways to modify their vehicles in the future, though nothing is confirmed yet.
Fortnite is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
