An event at Fortnite seems to be spreading in the real world as part of a promotional coup for the coming season. A recent rocket launch opened cracks in the sky and rifts began to swallow parts of the game world. At least one of these landmarks appeared in a remote desert.
Greasy Grove's Durr Burger recently disappeared from the map, only to be found by photographer Sela Shiloni in the Palmdale desert, California (via Eurogamer). Shiloni tweeted about the weird find, asking what this strange object was doing in the middle of nowhere. He followed with a video to prove that he was not Photoshopped, and admitted that he was not playing video games and was not familiar with with the reference. A police car nearby accompanies a sign that says, "This site is unstable, beware of the possible effects."
Meanwhile, an officer near the Durr Burger panel was distributing a mysterious card with a phone number that seemed to play riffs. . Dexerto reports that the audio of this phone call has been decoded, and it indicates the coordinates of Greasy Grove. This may indicate another clue coming soon to this place.
This seems to be part of Epic's promotional campaign prior to the launch of Season 5, but where everything ends, nobody guesses it. Epic has been keen to cast curves in its global events, first by making a meteor hit the map and pull out Dusty Depot instead of the widely accepted Tilted Towers, and more recently, launch a missile opening a flaw instead of 39; affect a portion of the map directly.
The rifts seem to lead to a change in the objects that appear around the map. Modern objects are disappearing, and data miners have found historical accessories like a poker table and a Penny Farthing bike. One such object, a Greek anchor, appeared near Snobby Shores. It seems likely that by the time all this is finished, some current objects will disappear and the map will be populated with historical artifacts.
