Fortnite fans are eagerly anticipating the upcoming end of season 9 event, with the latest development suggesting the battle between Cattus and Doggus could take to the skies.
Speculation has been rife in recent weeks after Epic Games left numerous hints around the Fortnite map which indicated that a massive end of season battle would go down between two monstrous creatures.
The monster from under Polar Peak, named ‘Cattus’, has been circling the map in recent weeks, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake. As a result, a giant robot is being constructed at Pressure Plant, named ‘Doggus’, presumably to put an end to the reign of terror.
A countdown has given fans the exact date and time that the event will take place, but another surprising development has given the story yet another twist, as wings were added to the robot at Pressure Plant.
Machines have worked around the clock to construct the huge metal soldier, with two large wings now present on it’s back, suggesting the fight might take to the sky.

It’s fairly safe to assume that the wings might have been added to counter the abilities of the Cattus monster, who may also be able to launch into the air if necessary.
Given all of the countdowns have appeared over the sky platforms around the map, players may be forced to watch from above and will be given a fantastic view if the fight does transition into an aerial duel.
The event will officially take place on Saturday 20 July at 3:00 PM EST meaning time is running out for the robot to be fully constructed.
With the final few pieces yet to be revealed, there may be another surprise waiting around the corner.
