The loading screen can be obtained by simply logging into the game by the end of the season, so you can easily add it to your locker. Interestingly, Epic Games released the loading screen on Tuesday, April 8, just hours ahead of a massive crash. The loading screen came out just a few weeks after the crypto rug pull in Fortnite, showing just how unstable the in-game economy is. Unfortunately, the real life doesn’t seem to be much better! The newest Fortnite item shows the stock market crash Big Dill is the most prominent figure in the current Fortnite season. This Soundcloud rapper has played a major role in the storyline and has even released Dill Bits, a new crypto coin. This business venture ended up with him pulling the rug and tanking the value of his currency. This has seemingly resulted in the market crash, which can be seen on the free loading screen. In a strange coincidence, the real-life stock market crashed on the same day as Fortnite’s did. Numerous companies have lost billions of dollars, but fortunately, the market has recovered since then. It’s hard to say what the future holds, but if Fortnite is a good indicator, we’re certainly in trouble! In the meantime, we’ll have to keep an eye on Big Dill, as he’s certainly up to no good. With Fortnite Chapter 6 – Season 3 releasing on May 2, the current storyline should conclude soon. However, it will be interesting to see how Epic Games will transition the story of a stock market crash into Star Wars. Let’s just hope that economic problems will not prevent Darth Sidious from building the Death Star!
