Previously, [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/fortnite-chapter-seven-teases-kill-bill-crossover-points-to-usa-setting']official hints from Epic Games have pointed to coordinates based in Hollywood[/URL], while another leak suggested the game would feature a Las Vegas-esque location (and a Quentin Tarantino crossover). And now, thanks to footage that has leaked from a preview event attended by media and influencers, Chapter 7's USA-style setting has been confirmed. Footage now widely circulating on social media shows an arid area with palm trees. In the distance, the game's map references an area named Sandy Strip.
