New Fortnite Impostors Game Mode Details

Finally, all Fortnite lovers can experience the game in a new way. The new game mode Fortnite Impostors has been already added to the game and you can play it right away. Here we will tell you more about the game mode itself.

The mode is designed for a maximum of ten players. Eight of them are Agents in The Bridge and the other two are Impostors whose task is to overtake it.

The main objective of Fortnite Impostors is similar to the famous psychological game “Mafia”. Noone in the team knows who the Impostors are and Agents must figure it out before they take control of The Bridge. If you find a fellow Agent’s eliminated fragment, report it! Everyone will be teleported to The Bridge where you can inform Agents who you suspect might have betrayed the IO and vote them out.

Along with that, you will need to complete quests such as calibrating chests and llamas, repairing the Battle Bus, and delivering Storm reports for analysis. Impostors will need to sabotage those things without giving out their identities:

• Disable Assignments – Temporarily freeze progress on all Assignments, buying you precious time.
• Teleport Players – Relocate all Agents and Impostors to somewhere else on The Bridge, covering your tracks.
• Peely Party – For a short time, all Agents and Impostors look like Peely so you can blend in with the crowd!

Moreover, Impostors will have quests that will help them earn everyone’s trust.

Of course, you can also communicate with other players. But the voice chat is closed in this game mode to make the game fair. The other means of communication are available though, you can talk in party chat; use Emotes and the Quick Chat menu.

Fortnite Impostors can be private, where you play only with a group of friends. Or you can join a match in a Solo queue. It is better to play in a group of 10 players to make it more fun. But still, you can start a match with fewer players. Keep in mind though that a game with four to seven total players will only have one Impostor, while eight or more will have two Impostors. Also, you can change your party settings by selecting the Gear icon in your Friends list to:

• limit others from joining your party to just people you invite (Private).
• limit your party to your friends, and their friends can join without invite (Friends Only).
• let anyone join your party (Public).

Sometimes you’ll need to Force a Discussion to check in on fellow Agents and discuss the Impostor infiltration. Discussions can be called by finding an eliminated Agent and reporting it or by interacting with the Discussion panel in The Bridge’s center room. During discussions, Agents and Impostors can share information with each other via Emotes and a brand-new Quick Chat menu, asking contextual questions about who was doing what and accusing suspicious candidates for ejection. 

At the end of each Discussion, Agents and Impostors will vote to either eject someone from The Bridge or to skip their vote for that Discussion. Consider others’ accusations and objections carefully: if the person voted out was actually an Agent, then Impostors are one step closer to eliminating everyone. Sometimes not voting is the best option.
