What You Need To Know About The New Fortnite Arenas Boxfight Map

Starting April 9, Fortnite is getting a new core mode developed by Epic Games called Arenas, which will allow players to take part in round-robin boxfight tournaments. Arenas, which was made with Unreal Editor for Fortnite, is essentially Epic's attempt to make its own version of a very popular genre of user-made Creative maps. Boxfights may be, in fact, Fortnite Creative's most common type of map.

Technically, Arenas is not Fortnite's first attempt at an official boxfight map. The Legends Landing island, which is likely better known among normal folks as a venue for watching pro Fortnite tournaments, has two small boxfight arenas in its lobby. But Arenas will be the first time that boxfights will be the actual main purpose of an Epic-made map.

Let's dive into the details so we can see how exactly it works.
