Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 3 kicked off with a bang! The new event flooded the island, causing old locations and POI’s to be completly submerged. Midas played a roll in the flooding of the island and it’s unclear how he’ll return. Remember, there is always the possibility he was eaten by a shark at the start of Season 3…

Storyline

It’s unclear where Midas went after the Season 3 live event. We know there are no lo longer Ghost locations around this map. This is the team that Midas sided with, meaning he lost against Shadow. In the Season 3 trailer, we see Midas fighting with a shark. There is a possibility he died in this, but that is unclear.
