Fortnite’s Rift in the Sky Continues to Shrink After V5.3.0 Update
The infamous ‘Rift’ above the Fortnite: Battle Royale map continues to shrink in size.
Ever since the beginning of Season 5 introduced the massive rift, Epic Games has made adjustments to its prominence in the sky over the course of multiple weeks.

With the implementation of the V5.3.0 patch on August 23, players noticed that the Rift is now a fraction of its former size and may reportedly close-up entirely in the future.
The adjustment can be viewed below via /u/carrareddit from the FortniteBR subreddit.

Recent leaks have suggested that Season 5 will now conclude on October 2, rather than its original end-date of September 25. Although, it should be noted that this has yet to be confirmed by Epic Games.
