Fortnite Faction Wars LTM event leaked for Season 2
Epic GamesThe two factions in Fortnite, Ghost and Shadow, are set to go head-to-head in an upcoming LTM in Season 2, according to leaks revealing details of the ‘Faction Wars’ event.
Epic has a history of pitting two sides against each other in Fortnite, such as the classic Food Fight LTM which put two rival restaurants, Durr Burger and Pizza Pit, in a fight to the end.
Ghost and Shadow are the two mysterious factions in Fortnite’s second season of Chapter 2, all part of the ‘top secret’ agents theme, and they too are getting their own special event, revealed by this leak.
Epic GamesThe event was first leaked by reliable data miner FireMonkey, who has uncovered clues about what it will include thanks to some game files in Fortnite.
The description of the event reads: “Team Ghost or Team Shadow? Pick your team from the PC and fight to upgrade your Faction intel level! This Faction v Faction event isn’t your ordinary event, as you can switch factions any time you want!”
FireMonkey continues: “The higher your faction level, the higher your Reward for the event. You’ll be able to see your Faction Tier & Rewards from the computer, as well as switch what faction you’re on.”

As with all leaked game files, everything is subject to change, as the leaker themselves states. It’s also unknown what rewards will be included, but we do know that the rewards will be improved depending on your faction level.
Keep in mind, this is likely subject to change, as strings such as "ALTER VS SHADOW" are literally the same team. Expect more info when we get the next update to fortnite.
