Reality: UN-81 refer to one of the many realities created during the Big Bang triggered by Jones, when he was in the past. It was first introduced during Chapter 4: Season OG.
Overview[]
Reality: UN-81 was created by The Zero Point, when Jones traveled back through time in order to create new Realities by triggering a new Big Bang in Chapter 4 Season OG's Reality. All this plan was to allow people in the present to escape Reality Zero, which was doomed. It was in this Reality that Fortnite: Battle Royale took place during the whole Chapter 5. The Reality itself appears as an archipelago of islands with a central Island named Helios. A smaller Island is located not far away, to the west of Helios, mountainous islands lie to the east, while to the south lie several wastelands, inhabited notably by the Wasteland Warriors. The Reality is suggested to be much larger than Reality Zero.
Pandora's Box[]
Pandora's Box is a gigantic sentient malevolent cursed box containing evils that was formerly chained with a Titan's hand and sealed underground. After it was summoned and opened by Valeria, the Box attracted many threats, such as the gods of The Pantheon, who came to punish the mortals for opening it, Megalo Don and the Wasteland Warriors, who came to seize the powers of the box and destroy everything, and Doom, who also came to seize the power of the box and create his world of Perfect Order by destroying all who opposed him.
The Island[]
Helios is an Island home to European architecture, boreal forests, mountain range decked with snow, mythological ruins and more. This island is greatly connected to the Greek Pantheon and holds within its heart a Titan, who was keeping Pandora's Box, before Valeria managed to summon it, unleashing a series of threats on the island. Many of its native inhabitants, such as most families of The Society are descendants of the gods of The Pantheon.
History[]
The Big Bang[]
The Big Bang created galaxies full of countless realities, with one of them containing Helios, a new world home to European architecture, boreal forests, mountain range decked with snow, mythological ruins, a Titan imprisoned beneath the island and wealthy descendants of gods ruling the island.
Before Chapter 5: Season 1[]
Reality Zero's inhabitants arrived in this Reality and made it their new home.
Chapter 5: Season 1[]
While the war between The Underground, led by Hope and The Society was almost concluded and that Peely had been rescued, Valeria, one of the bosses of The Society found and summoned Pandora's Box, before opening it, dooming the Reality and its inhabitants.
Chapter 5: Season 2[]
The Pantheon arrived and started to punish mortals responsible of Pandora's Box opening. However, Zeus decided to annihilate all mortals, sparking a war between gods and mortals. Some gods sided with the mortals, lead by The Looper, and opposed Zeus. After his defeat, the former king of gods, wrathful used the statue at Mount Olympus to strike Pandora's Box three times with lightning. With each strike, the orb started to fill up with an orange liquid called Nitro, and on the last strike, the orb broke free, travelling south from the mainland, and crashed into a distant desert island. Upon impact, a huge sandstorm formed and started heading towards Helios, bringing the Wastelanders along with it. Pandora's Box then disappeared.
Chapter 5: Season 3[]
The sandstorm eventually made landfall, transforming the southern part of the island into a Wasteland separated into two parts: Nitro Wasteland Biome and a Mesa Biome south of Restored Reels. The Wastelanders, led by Megalo Don took control of The Wasteland and began a plan to destroy the island, by refueling their ship, The Leviathan, with Nitro, the dangerous substance from Pandora's Box. At the same time, Megalo Don went in search of the Gem, linked to Pandora's Box in order to obtain its power. During these events a mysterious Wanderer appeared and helped Megalo Don and assured him that his plan would work. However, The Underground along with The Looper were decided to prevent Megal Don from destroying the island and seizing the Pandora's Gem. They recovered the gems one by one however couldn't prevent the pipeline to be constructed. Once the pipeline was completed and connected to the Nitro Refinery, Megalo Don began to refuel his Leviathan, ready to launch his raid. However, he was betrayed by the The Wanderer, who sabotaged his pipeline creating a big explosion and revealing Pandora's Box.
Chapter 5: Season 4[]
After his betrayal, The Wanderer, who revealed to be Doctor Doom stole all of the powers of the box, before summoning The Raft from Reality: 616 to rescue like-minded villains like Meowtooth, Emma Frost and Mysterio and make them join his army as he want to create his world of perfect order. He then summoned Latveria, with Castle Doom and Doomstadt in the north of the Island, briging a new Biome, the Forged Forest. In the meantime Magneto's Rift Beacon summoned a lot of Marvel Heroes, including Avengers, X-Men and many others to support The Underground and stop Doom.
After defeating Doctor Doom and sending him back to Reality 616 along with the power of the Pandora's Box, finally freeing the island from its evils. The Rift Beacons that were damaged in the event start to malfunction resulting in Reckless Railways and Brawler's Battleground being taken over by Ultima Carver and Billy (in their respective locations) or Fortnitemares 2024 with some part of the island being taken over by pumpkins.
During Remix: The Prelude, the activation of the broken rift beacon would result in the entire population of Helios being rifted into an alternate version of Apollo, leaving this reality's fate unknown.

Trivia[]
- Potassius Peels is seen on both Colossal Coliseum as the Roman Emperor owning the arena, and in the engravings of Mount Olympus depicting Mortal warriors under Zeus. Suggesting that this reality and Reality: 312 are one and the same.
- Stoneheart is also represented on statues in Colossal Coliseum, Butter Bloom, Sleepy Shrubs and Logjam Lotus, while Gorgon Warrior Medusa Loading Screen confirm that Medusa is the one who transformed her and Love Ranger into stone statues, confirming they come from the same reality as The Pantheon. Therefore the presence of statues representing her at Colossal Coliseum also suggests that Reality: 312 and this reality might be the same.
- Midas potentially originates from this Reality.
