New bus
The time has come to say goodbye to the bus that many of us have spent time on before a game, deciding where to get off and whether we feel brave enough to accompany everyone.
Thanks to a series of posts on X from @FortniteGame (the official X account), it’s almost certain that we’ll see a new bus in Chapter 5 Season 3.

Monster Jam Collaboration
A collaboration with Monster Jam has been rumored for a while, but a 24-second video posted on X by @FortniteGame gives merit to the theory – it almost confirms it!
Not only do we see the Battle Bus get completely bludgeoned by multiple Monster Trucks, but Epic actually mentions @MonsterJam in the tweet – we’re pretty confident in saying there’s some sort of collaboration going on.
This could also mean that we will be able to drive Monster Trucks in the game. After all, you have to overcome the sand somehow!
With tips like this and the ability to create our own, we can forgive them the bus.
Reliable leaker @ShiinaBR also posted on X that a Fortnite Monster Truck was seen recently at an official Monster Jam event, the same event where the Battle Bus was destroyed.

At the moment, it’s important to note that nothing has been officially confirmed, so this is all speculation for now.
New vehicle models
Speaking of vehicles, a potential new vehicle design was revealed through official merch items sent to content creators posted by @ShiinaBR on X. Alongside a license plate and plush toy, A familiar-looking but new vehicle can be seen inside a box with a big Fortnite logo on it.

The car itself matches the styling seen in recent official teasers and trailers, it looks ready to take on a lot of sand!
Sharkbait Vessel POI
A post from another reliable leaker, @HYPEX, on X suggests that there could be a new aquatic POI to explore next season: the Sharkbait Ship. When looking at its estimated size against Midas’ Yacht, this could be a particularly interesting location for quick fights.

Again, nothing has been officially announced about this.
New skins
Reliable leaker @HYPEX on X has published a list of potential new skins coming to Fortnite Wrecked.

The “Red Helmet” skin is the only one that has been spotted in official releases so far, but the design of the rest of the skins matches the vibe of next season.
Marvel Event
A post from leaker @HYPEX on Twitter, as well as one from @ShiinaBR, on X hint at the possibility of a Marvel collaboration and mini-event later in season 3.
This theory fits quite well, as the duration of Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 matches the window for the new Deadpool and Wolverine movie coming out in July.

Again, we must emphasize that this is just speculation and nothing has been confirmed by Epic Games at the time of writing.
That’s all for the moment! We will update this page as more information is released about Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3: Wrecked.
