Fortnite Tilted Towers return
The iconic and infamous Tilted Towers is back in Fortnite. This legendary point of interest (POI) has been through a lot over the years, ultimately getting destroyed in The Unvaulting Event back on May 4, 2019.
Following its destruction, Tilted Towers was rebuilt into Neo Tilted. From there, more Tilted Towers successors arose - such as Tilted Town, Gotham City, and Salty Towers. Still, nothing could compare to the OG Tilted Towers.
Tilted Towers and its spin-offs have been dormant for over a year. However, with the introduction of Fortnite Chapter 3, a new map gave hope to Tilted Towers fanatics that their cherished POI might make a comeback. Near the middle of the island, underneath the snow, lies what appeared to be high-rise buildings shrouded in ice.
For weeks the community wondered, "could these snow-covered buildings actually be Tilted Towers?" Well, it's now confirmed. On January 18, 2022, the four-year anniversary of the original Tilted Towers, the v19.10 update resurrected the fan-favourite drop spot.

It's not an exact replica, but this newly revived Tilted Tower is essentially the same Tilted Towers we all came to know and love.
