Horde Rush returns for Fortnitemares 2023

William Davis Published 10/10/2023

Horde Rush is back as part of Fortnitemares 2023 with a new set of quests.

Horde Rush is a limited time cooperative mode in Fortnite Battle Royale. It made its debut in Season 9 and returned in two previous occasions. Out of all the limited time modes, Horde Rush is very fitting for the Halloween time.

In Horde Rush, players fight in three major encounters. They have 150 seconds to loot a specific area and get ready for the attack. Cube Monster Brutes, Fiends, and Ranged Fiends spawn in the area and it’s the player’s mission to survive for three minutes.

The location for the next horde changes after every encounter. Players receive points based on the number of enemies killed and the type of loot they find. As the game progresses, enemies grow stronger.

The Caretaker is the final boss, it is the strongest of the Cube Monsters and spawns in the third round. The Caretaker has different types of attacks. It can slam the ground and create a shockwave that deals up to 60 damage. It also fires a beam and an electric web.
