Epic teases Halloween-themed "Fortnitemares" in a series of cryptic Fortnite tweets
"Better be ready."
Epic Games has shared another "Fortnitemares" tweet, teasing that a Halloween-themed event might be on its way to fan-favourite Battle Royale, Fortnite.

Right now this is only a hypothesis, but if the 24-hour gap between each tweet persists, looks like we'll know more with another tweet and another piece of the puzzle at 3pm UK time tomorrow.
