I mean I took a basic premise of throwing Fire and Steel's essence into You Don't Know Me and out came Hopeful Havoc. I've been working on an improved version of it for a while for a creative map of mine, so here's yet another preview of it just as an example of what I mean.

The plan with the scrapped December 27th event was to reveal both of these logos and say that they'd come out during 2026.

Custom items being delayed like Silksong, Hytale (before the recent revival), and GTA VI is definitely not helping the chances of a potential reversal of the scrapping.

Reforged Reality would've been the update name for the first version of Rainbow Island 2 (v2.0). I would have done things like have better biome blending and have some more buildings and try to expand on the general gameplay a bit. There would be references to the original map too.

I'm also very upset with the direction Fortnite as a whole is heading towards, which might actually lead me to pulling the plug on Rainbow Island significantly sooner than planned.

Yes, this means there might not even be a v1.13 depending on how I feel.

The reason why I'm canceling everything past v1.13 that I had planned is because it's unsustainable for me in the long term to keep on developing this map that doesn't really get much traction.

I make the map for enjoyment and not engagement, but I feel like my time would be better spent elsewhere.

The mini event that was going to reveal some major stuff set for December 27, 2025, at 2 PM EST, has been canceled, as neither of the things that were going to be revealed will happen anymore.

I won't let the logos I made for them go unseen though, as I'll post them here at some point.

v1.15.20: 5/1/26 9 AM EDT
v1.16: 5/13/26 12 AM EDT (3rd anniversary of Rainbow Island)
???: ??/??/26?

Tentative plans for further updates:
v1.13.10: 1/15/26 9 AM EST
v1.13.20: 2/1/26 9 AM EST
v1.14 (HUNTR/X Havoc): 2/14/26 9 AM EST
v1.14.10: 3/1/26 9 AM EST
v1.14.20: 3/14/16 9 AM EDT
v1.15 (Rainbow Remix): 4/1/26 12 AM EDT
v1.15.10: 4/15/26 9 AM EDT

The font I'm using is a 100% free font (or typeface if you want to get technical) called Procrastinating Pixie, which was made well before KPop Demon Hunters was a thing (April 8, 2020).

My plan is to use the current logo I made, but if it fails validation, I'll switch to a backup logo.

Just a fair warning that HUNTR/X Havoc's logo might change due to a brand island guideline that you can't use the official logo or similarly styled logos.

Here is a comparison between the official wordmark and the currently planned Rainbow Island v1.14 logo for reference.

I have a version of the logo without the glitch effects, but I think the glitchy logo fits the theme of the update (and is also a reference to the official Fortnite Chapter 2 Remix teaser videos).
