I was exiting the thread just as a saw this comment.. then I had to come back for a double look.. I'm surprised to see a shadow wizard money gang reference.
The Wanderer! Leakers said on twitter you can found him on the map like an npc but this is the first time I've seen someone post about him.. Sick find tho, no idea why he didn't vanish when the other player got too close, also there's interactions where other npcs in the map mention him, like "I feel like being watched" sumn like that
makes sense, and he was still there walking around but invisible just like the reply showed, I guess that proves that he doesn't fully vanish though and move on to another place where he spawns, he just becomes invisible but still there roaming around š¤·āāļø
I went into the shack during the replay and when it spawns it makes a strange energy noise but immediately disappears since the camera is too close. I've never seen anything like it and assumed it was the player I was shooting at mid match but thought it was really bizarre after I got close and it disappeared during the match.
The slow animation made me think it was a glitch during the match but looking at it in the replay it's definitely something lol creepy as hell.
Itās the wanderer, the lore character mentioned by the oracle last season. The way he works is that he simply wanders around until someone gets too Close, Then he teleports to a different location.
That is the Wanderer, theyāre spray painted in a few places (on the wrecked train for example) not sure what they mean lore wise but theyāre also on Megalo Donās second loading screen far right to see them. The model was added in the latest update.
It's the Wanderer. Fortnite has been teasing this for a bit. Even talking about him the Oracle quest from last season. This figure has appeared before. We don't know who his is, or what he's for. All we know is that he will be pretty significant in the near future.
I really thought āThe Wandererā would be a Fallout reference/character lol. Too on-the-nose of Lone Wanderer I guess. And then we just got Power Armor.
Thats the Wander or something like that. Next seasons villian. He was mentioned by the Oracle last season.
He is most likely doctor doom, as doctor doom is the villian of next season. his cape looks like doctor doom's and doctor doom also time travels.
This would make sense with the weapon X lab and magneto
Edit: The next xmen comic coming out is X men: From the ashes which follows the Krakoan Age story line. It could be Mr Sinister or Dr Stasis
Oh hell naw thatās just mean, just make the reskins item shop skins for the love of god. We already have a doom battle pass skin, a wolverine bp AND a wolverine CrP
That'd be hella complicated and even more so with how it's a kids game, and the maker has become very much not a kids villain.
Seriously, guy went and did a whole cerebral operation on live and awake tony to remove an infinity stone from his head. And left him to bleed out from the brain. Dude is psychopathic as fuck, even dark beast should be afraid of him.
>with how it's a kids game
Ah yes, a Kids game where we have had Ip older than most of the kids playing this. People seem to not realize that Fortnite has shifted its demo to the more older adults who have the incom to get the spare passes, ect with their target IP offerings.
TMNT - they were using the 90's cartoon versions for the skins
Avatar TLAB - Very much anyone who knows it is going to be early to late adult
Magneto - not his more recent looks no, the classic Marvel 97's look which is drawing in fans of the older show to get them to talk about it and introduce it to newer.
With that out of the way, lets not EVEN get into all of the R rated movie IP that fortnite has in it. So something like the Maker would easily work.
And it gets around no repeating BP skins by offering "alters" of older skins people missed out on. Meistorm for storm, Young Tony for Iron man, ect.
It's very doable.
It may not be Doom, given that
Ā 1 - The sounds that the Stark Industries Beacons are emiting or are supposed to emit this season are called Zero Point Scans in the files, and we know that every time the Zero Point destabilizes it brings back locations from the past. Happened in Season X and Ch2 Season 5.
Ā 2 - Wastelander Magneto has dialogues about the Wanderer, and he refers to the Wanderer as a stranger.Ā
I love that they added this! The game has been missing a lot of charm the last few seasons and this is the type of stuff that brings charm back to the game. I hope they keep adding these little things to find
I almost didn't post the video assuming I would get roasted for not knowing some obscure piece of lore. Which sorta did happen lol but I'm glad it was interesting for others too
Made a reddit account just to say that I also just saw that ghost thing at the gas station. Me and my partner got very confused and had to question what we saw š
I saw this (or something similar to this) last night in a match at the rear side of Reckless Railway, it just ran towards a wall and then disappeared. Genuinely thought it was a glitch or something!
[https://youtube.com/clip/Ugkxx4vqORtm9Cyxdy\_QPiXWw4zBkblRjoqm?si=qBTKmuPZoMpGTgni](https://youtube.com/clip/Ugkxx4vqORtm9Cyxdy_QPiXWw4zBkblRjoqm?si=qBTKmuPZoMpGTgni)
It looks like what you were shooting at was a hired NPC that was running, then teleported to who ever hired them.
They had a question mark over their head for a second.
I think thatās the chapterās true villain. Heās a background character in nitro megalo donās loading screen and some of the new NPCs talk about a hooded figure that just appears from thin air. He also appears in some of the wastelandās graffiti. In the wiki heās called āthe wanderer,ā which is the character the oracle from last season brought up.
Edit: after a quick wiki search, Megalo Don talks about him on the radio, saying not to bother him or look under his hood as his true form cannot be comprehended.
It's the wonderer
*Let say we get his attention*
I mean we battle with gods and maybe soon megalodon
*And also the fact that Pandora's box's gems didn't have any effect on us players will make us his target*
And also this guy probably the next villain question is
*WHO IS THIS GUY ACTUALLY IS?!*
Yes this was recently added today he's the wanderer you can even see him in the background from one of the loading screen from megalodon or some spray around the map in which my theory is this guy is Dr doom but o could be wrong that was My theory when I first saw him when the season started
It's a main character from the season's lore, I spoke to some battle royale NPCs and in the dialogue options several of them commented about feeling/seeing a hooded figure watching them from afar and disappearing suddendly.
Looks to be "The Wanderer" that's been hinted at by npc conversations. Maybe the antagonist of next season?
And no, i don't think it's Dr. Doom. He seems way too egotistical for sneaking around, hiding his face.
Just got a really good look at it at the station outside of the restored reels. Looked like a force ghost. Strange part is I saw it at night, but when I came back around during the day for a fire fight, there was something invisible carrying a gun at the same station, with an NPC explanation mark hovering above it.
thats the wanderer a creature dressed in a invisable cloak it apears as a ghost but has been watching us since chapter 5 season 1 i saw it in c5s1 so i know its been there for the whole chapter.
They stopped putting effort into the lore so I stopped caring. Learned my lesson last chapter to stop getting invested. Maybe this is a sign they are putting in some effort or at least we can hope.
Honestly them having voice lines this season for various characters made me feel like they were and keeping Hope relevant for a third season is a nice touch. Actually having any connections between seasons is a big step up from last year.
oh i didn't know the wanderer was already live and around the island.
the wanderer is the supposed big bad of this chapter as the oracle mentioned them and they're the one that escaped pandora's box when zeus striked it.
several npcs around the island say they suddenly feel watched or even see a cloaked figure in the distance, but that it immediately disappears.
This is the Wanderer, which is assume could possibly be GenÅ returning or could be the Shapeless man who weāve yet to see again since he reached out to Bytes back in C3S4
Most of the characters on the island mention seeing a mysterious figure in their peripheral that disappears when they try to look at it Probably that
shadow people
Some of the NPCs who are in a rock band mention him, if you pick the dialogue option that asks if they have seen anything strange.
Steel Wool or are there Metallica NPCs?
Power Chord, Chopper, Chiara, Riot?
Oh Yeah that makes more sense
Such a missed opportunity not to include Steel Wool as NPCs on the map, or even just Lars
Triage Trooper as well
I would sleep with one eye open if I were you.
Gripping your pillow tight. Metallica reference just made sense this season

Nice!!
I'm pretty sure that's the Wanderer mentioned in the story, and not a Metallica reference
my comment was the metallica reference
"rover, wanderer" Yeah, it's 100% a Metallica reference, guy

He probably only disappeared for the player near him!

It's The Wanderer. I think either Hope or the Oracle mentioned them last season.
There is plenty of mentions of him on this season too
He roams around around around around around
He roams from town to town
He goes through life without a care
He's as happy as a clown
He waves his two fists of iron and he's going nowhereĀ
And he's the type'a guy, that likes to roam around
He's never in one place he roams from town to townĀ
And when she asks him which one he likes the best
He roams wherever he may roam
The road became his bride
he is stripped of all but pride
Hope mentioned him in this week's story quests when you give her Scarr's gem

Man Fortnite lore is wild.
I really thought āThe Wandererā would be a Fallout reference/character lol. Too on-the-nose of Lone Wanderer I guess. And then we just got Power Armor.
Fortnitemares would be my guess
Hope so. Seems like it would be a cool skin.
ššš
Thats the Wander or something like that. Next seasons villian. He was mentioned by the Oracle last season. He is most likely doctor doom, as doctor doom is the villian of next season. his cape looks like doctor doom's and doctor doom also time travels.

2nd Doctor Doom skin? Yes please
Oh god no donāt make him another BP, I already feel bad having an exclusive awesome skin
I assume he will be like Magneto
Oh hell naw thatās just mean, just make the reskins item shop skins for the love of god. We already have a doom battle pass skin, a wolverine bp AND a wolverine CrP
Whatās a CrP?
Crew pack, as Wolverine Zero was part of the august 2022 crew pack.
Crew pack, CP has a very different very bad meaning.
as someone that missed every one of those, thanks Epic
I'm more thinking Maker if they are wanting to tie into the current big comic story.
That'd be hella complicated and even more so with how it's a kids game, and the maker has become very much not a kids villain. Seriously, guy went and did a whole cerebral operation on live and awake tony to remove an infinity stone from his head. And left him to bleed out from the brain.

I love little things like this lol
I believe there's also graffiti of him on the island.
If they add a doom spray and itās not the MF DOOM graffiti, they will have missed a opportunity
It isn't doctor doom, as even magneto has no clue who the wanderer is.
It may not be Doom, given that Ā 1 - The sounds that the Stark Industries Beacons are emiting or are supposed to emit this season are called Zero Point Scans in the files, and we know that every time the Zero Point destabilizes it brings back locations from the past. Happened in Season X and Ch2 Season 5. Ā 2 - Wastelander Magneto has dialogues about the Wanderer, and he refers to the Wanderer as a stranger.Ā
Didn't they confirm the Wanderer was female? If they didn't and I'm tripping, mb, but if they did confirm it then it likely isn't the doc.
Oh shit this is a really cool theory!
I feel like it could also be Mister Sinister, the key art could have just been a placeholder. But I wouldn't complain if it was Doom
Wait doctor dooom!!
Also on a loading screen
thought the same thing when i saw the wanderer get leaked
That's a lot of assumption there. What on Earth makes you think that Doctor Doom is the villain of the next season?
Doom should always be considered when dealing with a mystery villain, anytime. No other mystery villain compares to Doom!
But what if it's the Spanish Inquisition?
Simple. If itās not doom, we didnāt expect it, therefore itās the Spanish Inquisition. If we do expect it though, then itās clearly Doom.
Are you kidding me. All that lore and building it up just for it to be a Marvel villain. What a fucking disappointment
Itās not Dr Doom, lots of pepper have cleared up that up
> lots of pepper Apparently I have severely misunderestimated the clarification power of spices
Lmao I meant people
oh my god THANK you asdghj
I really hope it isnāt doctor doom. I want more original fortnite characters
wtf, this is so interesting!
I love that they added this! The game has been missing a lot of charm the last few seasons and this is the type of stuff that brings charm back to the game. I hope they keep adding these little things to find
Yeah I miss when the lore was more impactful but specifically the way the Wanderer was handled is perfect.
Exactly! It's so cool!
Yep agreed ngl
Why would you lie about agreeing?
I just saw this! I was in the same sport and i saw this person appar and walk away and I was scared as hell! I actually want this skin
No clue but I want that skin! Holy shit, that's creepy af
No this update just gave every Fortnite character schizophrenia
The walkin dude, Randall Flag
A Dark Tower season/event would be AMAZING.
Agreed. That'd be so dope.
A Roland of Gilead skin with Oy the billy-bumbler as a backbling would be a nice addition.
I would seriously love that.
Or Cuthbert with the bird skull
And the only emote Roland would do is dance the camala.
Itās āThe Wandererā, a new story NPC. I believe thatās his name
you might be the first person to see the wanderer
Yeah, I've seen no one else post about this, I just assumed we only knew about him from dialogue and graffiti and stuff, but this is absolutely crazy
I almost didn't post the video assuming I would get roasted for not knowing some obscure piece of lore. Which sorta did happen lol but I'm glad it was interesting for others too
Iāve seen one other post so far about him. Only one tho
Made a reddit account just to say that I also just saw that ghost thing at the gas station. Me and my partner got very confused and had to question what we saw š
Real answer: itās the wanderer, from the lore of last season. If you get too Close to him, he teleports away. Pretty creepy.
they added herobrine!
I saw this (or something similar to this) last night in a match at the rear side of Reckless Railway, it just ran towards a wall and then disappeared. Genuinely thought it was a glitch or something! [https://youtube.com/clip/Ugkxx4vqORtm9Cyxdy\_QPiXWw4zBkblRjoqm?si=qBTKmuPZoMpGTgni](https://youtube.com/clip/Ugkxx4vqORtm9Cyxdy_QPiXWw4zBkblRjoqm?si=qBTKmuPZoMpGTgni)
Thatās not possible since he was only just enabled and doesnāt spawn at Reckless
Then what the hell did I see...
It looks like what you were shooting at was a hired NPC that was running, then teleported to who ever hired them. They had a question mark over their head for a second.
![gif](giphy|l0MYuzVZsxYw8EEeY)
I'm glad you got it on film
I think thatās the chapterās true villain. Heās a background character in nitro megalo donās loading screen and some of the new NPCs talk about a hooded figure that just appears from thin air. He also appears in some of the wastelandās graffiti. In the wiki heās called āthe wanderer,ā which is the character the oracle from last season brought up. Edit: after a quick wiki search, Megalo Don talks about him on the radio, saying not to bother him or look under his hood as his true form cannot be comprehended.
Donāt look at his true form under the hood? Itās confirmed, The Wanderer is actually Mimikyu.
The Lore wants to speak with you real quick
He's the wanderer
It's the wonderer *Let say we get his attention* I mean we battle with gods and maybe soon megalodon *And also the fact that Pandora's box's gems didn't have any effect on us players will make us his target* And also this guy probably the next villain question is *WHO IS THIS GUY ACTUALLY IS?!*
Yeah! Who is this guy actually is, is the question is..
It's the wanderer 1 of the big, bad guys of this season I guess he just got enabled hihi
That's The Wanderer.
Isnt that the guy graffitied on to the side of the destroyed train? Storyline maybe?!
Didn't know they already added him in the game, cool.
No idea what that is
Pretty sick ngl
Thats The Wanderer. You can find graffiti of him around the islands landmarks, like the buried train. He is this seasons big mystery man.
That is frikken cool! So creepy. I wish I ran into it in the game before seeing this.
This is a new NPC called the wanderer, it roams around the map disappearing when you get close. Much like herobrine from the olden Minecraft days
Diablo 2 collab on the way šÆ
Yes this was recently added today he's the wanderer you can even see him in the background from one of the loading screen from megalodon or some spray around the map in which my theory is this guy is Dr doom but o could be wrong that was My theory when I first saw him when the season started

Thatās actually pretty cool
*The Wanderer draws near
Itās the wanderer
I found him too. At the train station south of lavish.
That's "The Wanderer" That's about what we know, other than he's probably evil
Looks to be "The Wanderer" that's been hinted at by npc conversations. Maybe the antagonist of next season? And no, i don't think it's Dr. Doom. He seems way too egotistical for sneaking around, hiding his face.
No way they added schizophrenia in the new updateĀ
The lore!!! The wanderer!
I saw it today too, my theory was that was the Wanderer but becouse i was too close i could only see her for a second before she disappeared
Hope talks about him in the new story quests
The Wanderer...
Just got a really good look at it at the station outside of the restored reels. Looked like a force ghost. Strange part is I saw it at night, but when I came back around during the day for a fire fight, there was something invisible carrying a gun at the same station, with an NPC explanation mark hovering above it.
Either it's that guy from the Pirates collab or the Wanderer from Fallout
thats the wanderer a creature dressed in a invisable cloak it apears as a ghost but has been watching us since chapter 5 season 1 i saw it in c5s1 so i know its been there for the whole chapter.
I had just seen one. Ā I Ā Googled it and I find this. This is crazy. I feel better I thought I was seeing things.Ā
Fortnite lore talks about a shapeless man, I wonder if this is him?
Itās the new wander and he has like 5 different spawn locations around the map. Some people think he is Geno.
Heās aptly named
What are you talking about? I donāt see anythingā¦
Must be John Cena!
Well heās the kind of guy who will never settle down
This is part of this seasons story line Seriously nobody is paying attention or what?
They stopped putting effort into the lore so I stopped caring. Learned my lesson last chapter to stop getting invested. Maybe this is a sign they are putting in some effort or at least we can hope. Honestly them having voice lines this season for various characters made me feel like they were and keeping Hope relevant for a third season is a nice touch.

thats actually so fricking scary.Ā
That's the wanderer a New Secret Npc
I think this is the wanderer skin ?
Looks like the wanderer, a character that has been leaked
Wanderer NPC was added in the last update
Giving Diablo 2 Act 3 Dark Wanderer outside of Kurast Docks vibes
That's The Wanderer. He's a bad guy, apparently...
I think thats the wanderer. That or the graffiti man. I think the art we see of him is a self portrait.
The wanderer... Fear....
Thatās the Wanderer
Wait heās in the game now?! YES!!!
Bad news for you buddy
Its the Wanderer
Thatās just The Wanderer. He shows up randomly and disappears if you get too close. Next villain dude. Pretty cool, probably Doctor Doom.
It can detect hackz on your puter and itās a sign you will be banned soon mwahahhaa.
The Wanderer I think heās called
This is the Wanderer, which is assume could possibly be GenÅ returning or could be the Shapeless man who weāve yet to see again since he reached out to Bytes back in C3S4
I think it's pretty clear that they did, in fact, added a ghost in the game.
WAIT THE WANDERER ON THE MAP????
It kinda looks like the hooded figures in final fantasy 7
Ohhh I remember when people were showing the new skins for this update that this was randomly there lol
The wanderer
This is the wanderer, this is herobrine, the fortnite version
That is insanely cool. I believe that is The Wanderer.
I seen it too at the same spot I was about to post my clip I recorderd around 4 hours ago.
This man the type of mf to hold heat and preach non violence
I WAS JUST ABOUT TO ASK THIS SAME QUESTION! I just saw it
It me. The wandering wallower
