Bad News:
There is a pretty good chance that Rainbow Island v1.13: Coral Chaos will be the final major Rainbow Island update either forever or for a VERY long time.

I am deeply against predatory practices, and Epic Games is pushing Fortnite extremely deeply into that with some recent things.

I doubt this is the right to way to use this image for a meme, but HOLY FUCKING SHIT WHY THE FUCK IS EPIC GAMES ALLOWING CREATORS TO ADD MOTHERFUCKING GAMBLING TO THEIR EXPERIENCES?!?!?!

There is going to at LEAST be a v18 (internally) in terms of what will be used for the full v2.

Yes, we have over a month and a half left of Hopeful Holiday, and I hope Fortnite v38.10 makes Rainbow Island v1.12.10 less frustrating than v1.12.01.
Here's an extended preview of Hopeful Havoc v2, which will be featured in Rainbow Island v1.13 (January 1, 2026)!

Internally, this is "Hopeful Havoc v17," which means I've made more than double the versions of v2 than I did of the original. The original was v5 lol.

Be prepared for chaos next year...

Random Fact:
The Hopeful Halloween and Hopeful Holiday songs, featured Rainbow Island v1.11 and v1.12 respectively, were forked off of Hopeful Havoc v12. Hopeful Halloween itself was a fork of Hopeful Holiday if you could believe it.

I know the update isn't happening until at least February 1, 2026, at the earliest, but I really want some ideas for Rainbow Island v1.14 map changes.

No, I'm not "fixing" the square biomes. I do have an idea for some map changes, but I'd love some community involvement for the update.

🏳️‍⚧️ TRANS RIGHTS ARE HUMAN RIGHTS AND J. K. ROWLING IS A BIGOTED PIECE OF TRASH 🏳️‍⚧️

Yeah, given the rumored Harry Potter collab for Fortnite Chapter 7, I'm genuinely not sure whether to continue making Rainbow Island updates or not.

Rainbow Island v1.12.01 has been submitted for review.

Now we wait for approval...
November 2, 2025 at 8:32 PM
I am slowly but surely getting v1.12.01 finished right now. It's pretty much done and all I need to do is to get the update memory checked so I can actually publish it.
November 2, 2025 at 8:15 PM
UEFN is giving me a REALLY hard time today. I'd probably be done Rainbow Island v1.12.01 by now if it didn't keep disconnecting and crashing.

Like it's a small update and it shouldn't be taking this long to actually get it finished...
November 2, 2025 at 7:47 PM
I'm going to try my best to get it out today... but I'm currently experiencing some issues trying to get into a Live Edit session so I can actually work on the update and be able to memory check it when it's done.
I'm planning on getting Rainbow Island v1.12.01 developed and pushed out either today or tomorrow. Sidekicks will be enabled and some characters will be added. No story teasers yet though.

Either way, Rainbow Island v1.12: Hopeful Holiday, is out NOW!

CLASSIFIED: Rainbow Island v1.14's name is ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇. It is planned to release in early 2026 and it will feature ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇, and last but not least, ▇▇▇▇▇. The story has to do with ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ using the ▇▇▇▇▇ on ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.

We have less than 24 hours until the Storm clears up... to make room for a different storm...

Don't ask me the logic behind Rainbow Island having precipitation for 1/4 of the year in 2025... except it's more like 2/3 of the year due to v1.8.11 (featuring snow) lasting until June 1 LOL.

With the introduction of Sidekicks to Fortnite as a whole tomorrow with the launch of Chapter 6, Mini Season 2, they should hopefully work without me needing to change any island settings. PLEASE let me know if they don't work and I will address it in Rainbow Island v1.12.01.

Rainbow Island is now 901 days old, and it will be 1000 days old on February 6, 2026.

For context, the Hiss Clique Quest Pack was last available on May 7, 2023, and the Square Stream wrap was last available on May 12, 2023.

Championship Aura was last available on May 15, 2023.

Here's a rough concept map of the Rainbow Island v1.9 map that I made on December 13, 2024. The image on the right is the real v1.9.20 map for comparison (I forgot to do a map capture of v1.9 before it came out LOL).

Here's a preview of the song for Rainbow Island v1.12 which is called Hopeful Holiday... which is also the name of the update...

The update will arrive on November 1st at 12 AM EDT!

While this meme is true, it's not for the reason you think.

This has more to do with me being morally split on whether I want to actually continue the experience I enjoy making for fun on a platform that pays an INSANE amount of money for AI slop maps simply due to popularity.

As a Fortnite Island Creator, seeing Epic Games promote brainrot events featuring AI slop on the MAIN Fortnite X/Twitter account seriously worries me about the state of Fortnite in the future.

Jock and I were in a call last night talking about how we could get a Tung Tung Tung Sahur skin...
