Fortnite players have a ton of predictions about what we’ll see when Season 6 goes live, and one popular rumor is that it will include the return of ‘Kevin’ the Cube. Now one player has taken this even further.

Epic Games went all out in terms of content during Fortnite Season 5. We’ve seen plenty of Exotic weapons, cosmetics, as well as crossovers with other franchises, such as HaloThe Walking Dead and many others.

We’re all curious about what we’ll see in Season 6, and many fans have formed their own theories. One prominent rumor is that we’ll see the return of Kevin the Cube in the update, and this has been promoted even by prominent YouTubers like Ali-A.

Will Kevin the Cube be in Fortnite Season 6?

Kevin hasn’t been seen on the battle royale’s map since 2018, and there has been a ton of speculation about its return over the past few years. These theories get even more traction when the next season is just around the corner.

Reddit user duskyxlops was able to map out the seven portal locations on the map, and then theorized that this forms a hint about what Season 6’s theme will be. They pointed out that the locations apparently line up to create a cube.

“So far the portal locations are forming a cube,” stated duskyxlops. “Just like the runes Kevin imprinted on the map in Season 5 Chapter 1– Two are unreleased.”

This could all be alluding to a big incoming catastrophe that will strike Fortnite Island. “Dark energy might corrupt the portals and make corrupted zones next season,” said duskyxlops.

Many of the commenters were immediately pulled in by this, and started forming their own theories of how the cube could make its return to the game. Some even started speculating that there’s another hint hidden in the game files.

“There’s sounds in the files for mechanical door opening sounds. The redacted bunker, Kevin the cube. Those two Spots lineup. Kevin is in the redacted bunker, I’m calling it,” said user ‘TonyThePapyrus.’

With Fortnite Season 5 set to end on March 16, we can expect to see the last portal locations appear on the map soon, and that will boost speculation even more.
