Sideways Rift

The Sideways Rift, also known as Crack in the Sky was a giant crack through reality called a Rift, that spawned late in Season 4 (June 30th 2018, Blast Off Event) And disappeared after spawning The Cube (Aug 24, 2018, Crack Closure Event).

It made a return in Batman/Fortnite: Zero Point Comic Series.

Overview
The Crack in The Sky was a giant fracture through reality known as a rift. Like all other rifts, it led to the realm of The Zero Point known as The In-Between, an area between dimensions that connects all realities together; and it also led to the realm of The Cube known as The Sideways. Rifts are a method of opening portals without directly or physically using Pure Portals from the Zero Point. As mentioned by The Visitor, a device called 'A Zero Point oscillator' and 'Quantum Field Accelerator' could be used to crack the fabric of time and space, and make connection between two or more distinct realities. It takes time for the Sideways Rift to close naturally, or it must be closed from both sides at once.



Season 4
The Crack formed after the Blast Off event of Season 4, in which The Visitor used the rocket to blast through spacetime and escape the island, never to return until Season X, where The Seven collectively contained The Zero Point. From the event up until the launch of Season 5, spacetime seemed to destabilize around the island, and smaller rifts began forming around the island, sucking away various objects such as the Retail Row NOMS shop sign, and The Motel sign. Near the very end of Season 4, rifts began bringing in objects from other realities, including ancient dinosaur bones and an ancient wagon.

Season 5
With the launch of Season 5, massive amounts of matter where pooled from different realities were swapped around, leading to the replacement of Moisty Mire with Paradise Palms and the desert. Various other changes occurred around the island, and The Crack seemingly widened during this point as well.

Throughout Season 5 The Crack suddenly began to shrink, as reality seemingly started to stabilize, likely the Imagined Order's activities. Once the rift reached a tiny size, it turned purple (due to being corrupted by The Sideways) and started to shoot purple lightning bolts at a certain spot near Paradise Palms. Eventually, this brought The Cube to the island, and the process seemed to have exhausted The Crack in the Sky, causing it to finally close up.

Batman/Fortnite: Zero Point
The Imagined Order opens Sideways Rifts in Reality: NF-1935 as their attempt to get back to Reality Zero. They manipulate Batman into helping them regain access to the Zero Point.

Batman/Fortnite: Foundation
Batman works together with The Foundation to close the rift from both sides. Batman uses the Foundation's Cube Device to close Metropolis' rift and The Foundation uses his suit to close the Island's rift.
