Earth-8

Earth-8 was one of the infinite paral·lel earths from Reality-F302, the one which contains the DC heroes, the original Fortnite world and all of hogrider2005's maps prior to Galaxy Legends. It's an almost exact variant of the Fortnite Earth, but started changing after Season 9 and the beginning of Fortnite: Barcino. It was destroyed during the End event, and reassembled as Earth-218 at the beginning of Chapter 2.

Nexus Event
Like in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, every reality is created as a branch or Nexus Event from a previous one. In this case, the nexus event started when it was revealed that Kevin the Cube hadn't "died" after Fortnite's Season 6, but that he had recreated himself in an island located at the north of the Athena island, Barcino. After this, the timeline changed incredibly in comparison to the Fortnite one, as the Ice King and the Prisoner (who now called himself the Fire King) started a fight in the map (which repeated itself in Earth-218 and 219, future iterations from this world).

This battle was interrupted by the End event caused by The Seven.

Survivors
The Seven were able to escape from the Zero Point's singularity, and Drift was also saved by The Monitor, a deity who served as a watcher and defender from R-F302.

Alternate variants

 * Earth-TRN1: The Earth were the Fortnite events are happening right now. This is the one that originated the rest of Earth-8's variants.
 * Earth-218: The Earth that was originated after the End event. It's almost equal to Earth-TRN1, but including the Barcino event. It was destroyed during the Crisis and merged with TRN-1, with the Barcino events being completely vanished from its history.
 * Earth-219: A variant from Earth-218 where The Seven didn't return to the Fortnite lore and stayed at Camp Cod, leaving the IO to rule the map without the primal biome to come due to John Jones and The Foundation's actions. This also made the Kymera to not invade Apollo. This is where the Galaxy Legends' events occur.
 * Earth-TRN2: An alternate version from Earth-TRN1, where Shadow won the Spy Games and Midas' device was never switched on, as he defected to Shadow with his daughter Jules. This Shadow variant was later seen in Galaxy Legends, appearing in Elseworlds and playing an important role during The Last Stand as The Coalition.
 * Earth-TRN3: An alternate version from Earth-TRN1, where the Ice King didn't disappear after Galaxy Legends Season 1. He was later seen at The Last Stand, joining The Coalition.
