Tilted Towers has remained one of Fortnite’s most popular POIs ever since was introduced in the game during Chapter 1 Season 2 all the way back in January 2018.

Throughout Chapter 1 Tilted Towers saw many different iterations including it being turned into Neo Tilted and Tilted Town. However, the POI was removed from the game throughout the entirety of Chapter 2 and players thought they would never be able to land in Tilted again.

Epic Games then clutched up in Chapter 3 Season 1 and brought Tilted Towers back and it has remained in the game ever since. But, with Epic Games holding some kind of grudge against Tilted which sees them destroy and change it on a regular basis, it shouldn’t be a surprise that they are set to overhaul the POI once again in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 3.

When it comes to designing a building for The Block 2.0, players need to think about how it will work in both building and Zero Build modes.

The overall flow of the building is crucial. The area needs to flow well and make sense and feel like it could have been designed by Epic Games themselves.
