As we reported earlier,
Fortnite update 3.6 went live today bringing all sorts of weapons and balance changes. What it didn't bring, however, was the destruction of Tilted Towers.
Speculation regarding the point of interest's destruction by a meteor spotted in the sky has been going on for weeks now, but recently starting picking up steam following a series of what seemed to be teasers from Epic Games. It hasn't happened yet, but following today's update, players have noticed more teasers and clues from developer Epic Games.
For starters, it seems Epic has taken note of the the conspiracy theorists and is having a little fun with them. Over on one of the Tilted Towers building's roof you can find couches, chairs, and signs, as if people are waiting for something big. There's also a television currently only showing static.

If you look closely, you'll notice a series of signs that seem to troll the theories floating around the internet, while possibly throwing a possible twist into the mix: aliens. Prior to today's update, most figured the meteor would destroy Tilted Towers, but now it seems aliens could be arriving.
Additionally, stargazers have noticed some oddly shaped stars following the update, including some shaped like UFOs.
The same images on the signs are also in the sky (UFOs, Hearts, and Towers).. The Aliens come in peace! from r/FortNiteBR
What does it all mean? Are aliens coming to
Fortnite? Will Tilted Towers be destroyed? We can't say for sure, but if anything does happen, it'll likely come at the end of Season 3 in the coming days.
