A Fortnite leaker found a promotional clip for the upcoming Chapter 3 of the Battle Royale. This one further supports the “flipside” theory.
Fortnite leaker freddythefox found a video on Thursday that hints at Chapter 3 of the Battle Royale. He obtained the short clip as an advertisement on TikTok – Just a short time later, Epic Games asked some of the most well-known dataminers not to post content.
Whether the promotional clip is actually real has not yet been confirmed. The video shows several Fortnite characters on a hill looking down on the current map. However, a sudden explosion rocks them and they are pushed underwater. Jonesy is then shown floating in the water looking down at the island, which is literally turned upside down and inside out. The clip ends with a wave crashing towards Jonesy.
Fortnite creator SypherPK, as well as other content creators who often get inside information from Epic Games, sprinkled the phrase “Catch you on the flipside” into their videos back in November. According to the clip, the flipside apparently refers to the underside of the island that could form the new map.

As ShiinaBR and other leakers reported later on Thursday, Epic Games directly asked some of the dataminers not to post leaks during the downtime to v19.00. Apparently, the developer is planning a big surprise for the community with Chapter 3 – which may indeed turn the whole game upside down.
Epic Games has asked leakers to not post any leaks during the v19.00 downtime.
We realize why this is an important concern for them and have provided suggestions on how to make their idea work in a good way.
Based on their response, we will evaluate if this is a realistic idea.
