A new Chainsaw Mythic weapon is getting added. It looks like a slow but very high-damage melee weapon that can also be used to travel faster. The Chainsaw is most likely a reference to Leatherman from the popular film The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

No Fortnite Halloween event is complete without the fan-favorite Pumpkin Launcher. The trailer showcases various weapons and mobility options returning to the game.

The Fortnite x SAW collaboration seems to have not only an in-game skin but also various features like a proximity explosive, Landmark, and secret quests. The collaboration is also likely to get its own LTM during the Fortnitemares 2024 event.

Throughout the trailer, we can see several Halloween-themed spinoff skins that would likely be released as Halloween Bundles. One of the more interesting ones you would find is the spooky version of the adorable Guff Outfit.
