Do you want to find out what new amazing features Fortnite and Epic Games will be adding? Throughout the years, Fortnite has added a slew of changes for the better. However, there is one feature many players have been asking for since Chapter 1 of the famous Battle Royale game.

Thanks to a new leak, it seems this feature will be added in the next season of Fortnite. This has been a feature many players have been asking for, and it’s finally making its way to the Battle Royale. Now, the only question is whether you have the skill to obtain this new Umbrella. So, find out what popular Fortnite feature Epic Games will finally be adding.

Umbrella Tiers have been a popular Fortnite feature many players have requested since the game was released. According to a well-known Fortnite leaker, Hypex on X (formerly Twitter), Epic Games is working on adding the Umbrella Tiers Fortnite feature in the upcoming season in November. However, this has not yet been confirmed by Epic Games.

These new Umbrella Tiers will be available when you play in Ranked Mode and thus likely to be obtainable when you complete special quests.

Below are the following Ranked Rewards you can obtain:

  • Sliver Gilder
  • Gold Umbrella
  • Platinum Glider
  • Diamond Umbrella
  • Eliter Glider
  • Champion Glider

Additionally, when Fortnite first launched, the Battle Royale had no cosmetics items. However, Fortnite and Epic Games released a slew of cosmetics, bundles, and items to the Item Shop soon after. The suggestion to include Umbrella Tiers was first made in a Reddit post by u/vigilancefoetracer in the subreddit FortNiteBR group.

Including this feature will likely increase the amount of players in Ranked Mode, as many talented players will try to obtain the Umbrella. However, the only question remains whether you are up for the challenge of earning this new Umbrella.
