The Storm approaching the player in Fortnite BR.

The Storm Eye is a gameplay mechanic in Fortnite Battle Royale.

It is meant to keep the game flowing and prevent people from just hiding in the edge of the map the entire match.

Your goal is to stay inside the eye of the storm.

The storm forms over the entire map, EXCEPT in that specified section

The eye of the storm keeps shrinking.

There are two phases for this shrinking, each with its own timer:

First, the map marks the area in which the storm eye shrinks to

Second, the storm eye actually shrinks.

If you get caught in the storm, you take damage over time until you die.

Your only possible action is to sprint as fast as you can towards the storm eye.

Here is how this looks on the map:

• The striped purple area is the storm itself.
• The blue circle is the current eye of the storm
• The white circle is the next eye of the storm
• If you are outside the eye of the storm, you will also see a straight white line indicating the shortest path from your location into the eye of the storm.

Strategy Guide/Tips

• The Eye of the Storm moves in a random direction which can be different every match.
• The storm ignores armor and damages health directly. So a Shield Potion is useless against it.
• The storm will not interrupt actions that require uninterrupted focus such as applying bandages or using a med kit.
• Plan your moves ahead so that you don't get caught in the storm, don't let the storm force your moves.
