The long (if you are a fan) wait for Fortnite to come back online is ending as the game is slowly coming back to life with updates available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. The patch is almost 20GB on PC, and around 9GB on consoles, making it the largest update to the game so far.
As expected there is a brand new map which you see below.

The full cinematic for the game has also leaked.
