Unbelievable Easter Eggs & Hidden Secrets
1. Alien Parasites Change Your Voice in Voice Chat
Did you know that if you had an alien parasite attached to your head and entered voice chat, it would change how your voice sounded? This was a weird but hilarious detail that most players never noticed before the parasites were removed from the game.
2. Indiana Jones’ Secret Treasure Trap
When Indiana Jones was added to Fortnite in Chapter 3, his POI contained a secret puzzle that players had to solve to access hidden treasure. Nick Eh 30 was one of the first to explore it:
Nick put this theory to the test, and it actually worked! Sadly, this trap was removed in Season 4 when the area was taken over by chrome.
3. Zoey Skin Was So Overpowered That It Got Disabled
Fortnite has always insisted that skins are cosmetic only and provide no competitive advantage—but Season 4 proved otherwise! The Zoey Skin had a game-breaking glitch: as long as you didn’t get too close to enemies, you would be completely invisible to them. It was so overpowered that Epic had to disable the skin entirely until they fixed the issue.
Glitches That Changed Fortnite
4. The Super OP Storm-Healing Tent Glitch
Tents were one of the most useful survival tools when they were added in Chapter 3 Season 1. Fortnite stated that they could be broken to balance out their healing power. However, players discovered that if a tent started breaking in the storm, you could pack it up, place it back down, and it would reset—letting you survive forever and farm free wins.
5. The Invisible Mechs in Season X
The Mechs in Season X were already infamous for being overpowered, but players took it a step further. A glitch made them completely invisible, allowing players to eliminate enemies without ever being seen.
This glitch made them even more broken and hated than the Infinity Blade.
Most Overpowered Weapons in Fortnite History
6. The Sniper Pump Shotgun
The Pump Shotgun was always intended to be a close-range weapon, but in Chapter 1, it had a secret long-range damage bug. Players quickly discovered it could one-shot enemies from far distances, earning it the nickname “Sniper Pump”.
7. The Gold Tac SMG – The Most Broken Gun Ever?
In Season X, the Starry Suburbs POI secretly contained an insanely rare golden Tac SMG. With 42 headshot damage and a ridiculously fast fire rate, this was one of the most overpowered weapons ever introduced in Fortnite. However, because it was only available for two weeks, many players never even knew it existed.
8. The Machine Pistol Was Accidentally Added to Solid Gold
Fortnite accidentally added the Machine Pistol into Solid Gold mode, but instead of being a Legendary weapon, it spawned as a gray rarity. Despite this, it shredded enemies with its insane DPS before being removed just one hour later.
Crazy Exploits & Game-Breaking Tactics
9. The Zero Point Free Win Strategy
In Chapter 2 Season 5, Fortnite introduced the Zero Point, which healed players to 100 HP every time they entered it. The X2Twins found a hilarious exploit: they built a skybase directly above the Zero Point, continuously jumping into it to infinitely heal and win every game without fighting.
10. The Unlimited Metal Trick
Finding metal was always difficult in Fortnite, but players found an infinite material trick in Chapter 2. If you hit a gas pump, it would never break, allowing you to farm metal forever. This was eventually patched, but players later discovered a new version of the glitch using repair pads and cars.
Hilarious & Unexpected Fortnite Moments
11. Nick Eh 30’s Voice Chat Troll in Fortnite Remix
During Fortnite Remix, Nick A30 ran into a weird FOV bug where his camera flipped sideways, making it nearly impossible to play:
Despite this crazy disadvantage, he still managed to clutch up and get a kill.
12. The Peely Army vs. Pro Players in a Tournament
During a Boom TV OG Fortnite tournament, pro players were dominating content creators. To get revenge, all the content creators teamed up wearing Peely skins and wiped out the sweats in a hilarious ambush.
The Peely army was victorious, but their points were banned from the tournament for teaming.
