First official image of Season 3 of Fortnite Chapter 2
On June 1, 2020, the first official image of Fortnite Season 3 Chapter 2 was leaked. Due to an error on the PlayStation Store website, this image was made public, we understand that ahead of schedule. In it we can see the battle bus, a deserted island, and the sea, from which we understand that summer and the sea will be the theme of Season 3.

Changes in the scenario and playable level of Season 3 of Fortnite Chapter 2
The Doomsday Device now means that instead of a storm as such, what is chasing players in games is a tsunami. This environmental hazard behaves similarly, though not identically, to the classic storm.
This is what happens with the new storm / tsunami in # FortniteChapter2:
🚁 If you fly over in Choppa, it hurts you like before
🌊 If you enter Choppa, it expels you from the vehicle

If it touches us while we are on the ground, it will push us little by little, and it will also make us lose health as with the normal storm. If the tidal wave catches us while we are in Choppa, it will expel us from the vehicle.
There could be an Aquaman skin in Season 3
Jason Momoa, the actor who has portrayed Aquaman in the DC Extended Universe, shared in a story from his Instagram account (@prideofgypsies) the Season 3 teaser featuring a golden trident.

This might not mean anything concrete, or perhaps it is a hint that Aquaman would be a Season 3 Battle Pass character, and would look like this actor. It wouldn’t be crazy considering that other Marvel heroes (like Deadpool) have already joined the game, and that DC Comics already has Batman, Catwoman and Harley Quinn.
