Just earlier today, we posted a story about how Epic Games wasn’t in any hurry to add a new map to its game, since it preferred to expand upon its current one. But that isn’t stopping the publisher from teasing that it’s traveling some place now.

A new cryptic tweet has appeared on Epic’s Fortnite Twitter page suggesting that the Battle Bus is taking off to a new location -- China!

“The Battle Bus is taking off!” the company noted. “Destination, China.”

As you can see in the image below, we get a glimpse of some building blueprints, along with a passport featuring Jonesy’s information, along with a stamp indicating that he’s traveling. And it shows “4.23.18" as the date, meaning something is bound to happen this month.

That’s all the company said in the tweet, so a lot of people in the community are guessing what this could mean. On the one hand, the game hasn’t been released in China yet, so this might be a tease for the game’s release over there.

But then we could go the other way, with the possibility that the game will introduce a new map overseas, in which players can challenge each other on new terrain. It could really go either way, although you can probably see which way we’re leaning.
