Fortnite leak suggests a new map and superhero-themed game mode in Chapter 6 Season 3
Fortnite might be gearing up for one of its most dramatic seasons yet. With Chapter 6 Season 3 on the horizon, a major leak has surfaced, and it's buzzing with excitement. A trusted leaker has hinted at a bold new location, Utopia City, along with a limited-time game mode that trades your usual loot and builds for superpowers. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Here's everything you need to know! A Massive Shift Is Coming to Fortnite (Screenshot via X/@blortzen) According to the leak, the new map addition 'Utopia City' will feature a sleek, futuristic design. Tall neon towers, high-tech streets, and possibly even a Hero Academy sitting at its core. This isn't just a cosmetic overhaul. If true, this location could bring an entirely different vibe to the current island — more sci-fi epic than survival shooter. Early speculation suggests Utopia City won't just be eye candy. It might serve as a central hub for a new storyline arc involving emerging heroes, secret factions, and evolving missions. Leaks Suggest a New Superhero LTM (Screenshot via X/@blortzen) The biggest twist, though? A new game mode centered entirely around superpowers. Instead of guns, players might harness unique powers — flight, energy blasts, teleportation, or even elemental control. While this isn't confirmed by Epic, the leaker hints that it'll be available as a limited-time mode , likely tied to the core Utopia City experience. It's a bold shift — one that could pull Fortnite out of its recent slump. Why This Leak Matters Now Fortnite has been dealing with a bit of turbulence. Despite high-profile collabs like the recent Star Wars mini-season, the player count dipped to its lowest in two years this May. Fans were starting to wonder: Is Fortnite losing its magic? This leak suggests the opposite. If Epic Games really is planning a superhero-style season, it could bring back the thrill, chaos, and innovation Fortnite is known for. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Add the possibility of a Superman crossover (timed with the upcoming movie), and you've got a recipe for hype and headlines. A Comeback Season? Nothing's officially confirmed. But if these leaks turn out to be true, Chapter 6 Season 3 might be Fortnite's big comeback moment. A futuristic city, powers instead of pistols, and maybe even flying around as Superman? That's the kind of twist the game needs. Until Epic drops a trailer or an official blog post, take all of this with a grain of salt. Still, one thing's clear: something huge is on the horizon.

Lilo And Stitch Worldwide Box Office Update: Disney's live-action film marches its way towards the coveted USD 1 billion club
Disney's live-action Lilo And Stitch is setting the global box office on fire. The film is racing toward a jaw-dropping USD 1 billion in worldwide gross collections. After its second Tuesday, it has already pocketed just under USD 650 million globally. This family-comedy is proving to be a monster hit, and Disney is already counting its profits. With a modest production budget of USD 100 million (excluding marketing), the studio is laughing all the way to the bank. Let's break down why Lilo And Stitch is a box office juggernaut and how it's paving the way for massive earnings. The film's domestic performance in the US is nothing short of spectacular. It's targeting a whopping USD 450 million at the domestic box office. After its second Tuesday, it has already raked in over USD 285 million in US-Canada alone, making it the second-highest-grossing film of 2025 domestically. The film's record-breaking Memorial Day weekend debut of USD 183 million set the tone, smashing past Top Gun: Maverick 's previous record of USD 160.5 million. A strong USD 63 million second weekend confirmed that the movie is in no mood to slow down anytime soon. Internationally, the film is a powerhouse, eyeing close to USD 600 million from markets outside the US. Markets like Mexico, UK and Brazil are leading the charge. However, Asia has been a bit of a soft spot, with the film yet to open in Japan. Still, the global appetite for Lilo And Stitch is undeniable. What makes this success even sweeter for Disney is the film's modest budget. At USD 100 million, Lilo And Stitch was initially planned for Disney+ but it pivoted to theaters and that move is paying off big time. Disney's global share by the end of its run will be over USD 400 million. Add to that non-theatrical revenue streams, and the studio is looking at profits exceeding USD 500 million. A huge chunk of this comes from Lilo And Stitch merchandise, which is flying off the shelves. Directed by Dean Fleischer Camp, Lilo And Stitch stars Maia Kealoha as Lilo. Chris Sanders has given the voice for Stitch. With no major competition until mid-June, Lilo And Stitch is set to keep soaring. Disney's gamble on this live-action remake has paid off and the losses of Snow White have been comfortably recovered.
