Chair Amusement Group, LLC (stylized as Chair) is an American video game designer based in Salt Lake City, Utah. The business was obtained by Epic Games in 2008.

The Fortnite lore world is huge as well as frequently hard to realize, though the in 2015 of the game has actually revealed us a developer in Epic Games suddenly extra curious about putting Fortnite story in the limelight. Still, you'd be forgiven for shedding track of whose that, that's active, that's dead-- or also what dead means in a world where characters are constantly knotting with spacetime. In his most recent, teaser-filled video clip, Epic chief creative police officer and also de facto Fortnite lore scriptures writer, Donald Mustard, has actually validated a minimum of one piece of a much bigger problem: Midas isn't dead.

Midas is the once (as well as future?) leader of GHOST, an apparent espionage branch of the Imagined Order. When we last saw the man with the gold touch, he had not been gilding all he came in call with, but rather turning the whole Fortnite globe fairly soggy. His Tool at the end of Phase 2, Period 2 was suggested to be an unapproved attempt to appear the Tornado that surrounds the Fortnite island of Beauty.

But the strategy was removed after its short-lived success paved the way to a tidal wave of failings. The island was swamped for weeks in the succeeding season, as well as Midas has yet to be seen once more to this very day. Did he sink in his own sea of disorder?

Apparently not, as Mustard said in his most current in a continuous collection of video teases. Like Phil Spencer of Xbox, Fortnite fans understand to look in the history of Mustard's selfie video clips when he shares them-- and also the R2-D2 behind-the-scenes may be an extra tease-- but the current video clip was extra candider than usual.

Midas is excellent... As well as not dead! Mustard said in the last secondly of the lot longer video. The Fortnite story author is additionally a talented illustrator and also has actually been utilizing the previous couple of days to draw a few of his and others' favorite characters as well as share them online, now that we approach the end of Chapter 2.

Midas emerged as one of the most essential characters in Fortnite lore over the last 2 years, so it makes good sense that he would certainly obtain a signature illustration from the exec, yet the always spicy Mustard used the video to hint at something much better, leaving followers to question: If Midas is active, how might he play right into the approaching cataclysm? It's already presumed The Structure will certainly make a return, particularly after The Rock almost validated he's voicing the personality.

There's just one means to find out what happens next: Tune into the Fortnite Chapter 2 ending at 1 PM PT/ 4 PM ET on December 4, with playlists for the occasion opening half an hour before the figurative fireworks begin.
