Chapter 2: Season 7

Chapter 2: Season 7, also known as Season 17, was the seventeenth season of Fortnite: Battle Royale, and penultimate season of Chapter 2 that started on June 8th, 2021, and concluded on September 12th, 2021 at 4:00 PM EST, when the Operation: Skyfire live event ended, although the next season did not begin until 5:00 AM (EST) September 13th, 2021. The period between the event and the start of Chapter 2: Season 8 is approximately 10 hours and is known as the Rocky Ridge.

Its title and slogan is "Invasion" and its theme revolves around aliens invading the island.

Previously, In Fortnite...
Following the Foundation's attempt to seal off the Zero Point, the Island has gone in a Primal stage, causing parts of the map turn into an Autumn-like biome. Wild animals such as wolves, boars, chickens and frogs, and NPC's like the Spire Guardians, somewhat linked to the Imagined Order, roam around the spire towers.

How Did It Start?
After Raz obtained a Spire Artifact, he ended up attracting unwanted attention from an alien race known as The Last Reality. UFOs began to abduct loopers and send them to different areas of the island. Mari, a woman who is studying aliens, hosts a radio show on them titled "Hot Saucers." Later, the aliens started a full scale abduction against the citizens of Apollo, with them successfully infiltrating the Imagined Order and using their technology to rip the Spire out of the map. The location of the zero point is unknown but The Foundation was seen falling into the ocean, possibly being rifted to another reality.

In the Story Trailer, a series of unusual and strange phenomenons occurring in the Island fast:


 * Spitfire detects several circle-like objects (UFO) floating and making their way to the Island.
 * Envoy and Contract Giller spot an enormous UFO in a cave-like place.
 * Calamity, Hayseed, and Cobb walk through cornfields quizzically, only to be left in a strange circle in which it turns out to be one of the Alien's signs.
 * A tornado-like phenomenon (Alien's/invaders invading the island) soars through the Island, causing strange winds and taking Rustler's hat in a flash.
 * Mothmando opens the door to their place, only to be caught in a trance after looking at strange lighting, turning into one of the Invaders. (Most likely).
 * UFO's proceed to start abducting people in the loop, which first happens to Sparkplug.
 * The enormous alien mothership rushes its way through the island, covering the entire island.
 * Rick Sanchez, Dare & the members of the Imagined Order try to make contact with the aliens with music, but in response, the Mothership takes The Spire off the ground, and inserts energy-like waves. On the way, The Zero Point destabilizes once again and sends another wave.

Battle Pass

Teasers/Leadup
During Update v16.50, alien posters and Static TVs started appearing around Apollo, an Imagined Order helicopter crashed onto the island, and most of the crops at Colossal Crops were removed (Possibly stolen). A woman named Mari is taking studies on aliens and hosts a radio show discussing them.

Additionally, certain Content Creators, like Loserfruit, received DVD Players containing a CD labeled "They're coming!" and various posters with the same warning. The CD played different footage of Crop Circles in seemingly real-life fields. These Crop Circles showed symbols and likely have something to do with the Foreshadowing Quests. Posters can also be found all around the world, and various people were given postcards with the same symbol.

As well as this, numbers seen on some of these posters are actually phone numbers that you can call to hear sounds that, when put in a spectogram, show images. One of these images shows Peely running from an alien spaceship, and another with a kangaroo in it.

Because of this, it is believed they will be an Animal, but they will be accompanied by octopuses and platypuses - theorised with some Foreshadowing voicelines.

On June 2nd, 2021, UFOs starting appearing, they mostly spawn in Risky Reels and can abduct up to twenty players and will heal players during abduction.

Starting on June 5th, 2021, teasers of cosmetics and new items/weapons were released.


 * June 5, 2021 teaser: Fishstick Janky, Lac-pack, Grab-itron
 * June 6, 2021 teaser: The Fret Basher, Clark Kent, Alien Knockgun Launcher
 * June 7, 2021 teaser: Kymera Ray Gun, Butter Robot, Galactic Pack (Sunburnt)

Phone Calls

 * The signal is..... *extraterrestrial voice*
 * If any of you are any good with weird signals... pick up, okay?
 * We got movement on that signal. This thing is bigger and weirder then any of us thought.
 * Watch the skies, they have found us.
