Fortnites Twitter page has released the following Tweet,

‘If they won’t give us what we want. Then we’ll take it ourselves’.

The Seven

According to recent teasers, it looks like The Seven could be making a return to the game, after having not been seen since Season X.

So far we have seen three members of The Seven in-game, The Visitor, The Scientist, and The Paradigm.

Could we see the next member during Season 6?

Who Are The Seven?

In Season 4 of Fortnite Battle Royale, The Visitor arrived in Dusty Divot via the Meteor as the first member of the Seven introduced to the players. He used the Hop Rocks from the crater and several trucks to modify a movie prop rocket into an actual, functioning rocket, and launched it in the The Blast-Off Event.

In Season X/10, we were introduced to The Scientist, who arrived possibly via the Frozen Meteor. He escaped as soon as The Zero Point paused time, possibly to build the Rift Beacons to bring the rest of The Seven to Chapter 1’s dimension/reality.

According to the Visitor Tapes, The Scientist successfully paused time when he arrived outside of the loop at the exact time of The Zero Point first explosion. After creating the Rift Beacons, The Scientist created the Visitor Tapes as a precaution to help his future Looped version remember The Seven’s plan if he lost his memories like the island’s inhabitants did.

When the time came, The Scientist launched his rocket, synchronized the junction to bring the rest of the seven to his dimension/reality, brought the meteor above The Zero Point with the help of the other six, and finished their plan by causing the meteor to collide with The Zero Point.

The Seven’s plan was to stabilize The Zero Point before it was lost, which would take The Bridge down with it. However, it seems that they miscalculated something, and accidentally caused The Zero Point to become inevitable.

Ever since The End Event, The Seven have not been seen since, and has only been referenced in the Chapter 2 Season 2 cinematic trailer, the Chapter 2 Season 4 login screen, and the Chapter 2 Season 5 story trailer, where John Jones’ boss attempts to remind him to not draw the attention of The Seven.
