Recently, Epic Games released an update for Fortnite which added a brand new “Fork Knife” area on the map as a tribute to the running gag with it sounding like the games name!

However, it seems that area of the map has become deadly with it instantly killing anyone who touches the piece of land!

Check out this clip of it below:

There's currently an instant kill tile in the Fork Knife area north of Fatal Fields, be careful! #Fortnite
