Most looked better 5 years ago. The reason probably is that the old map was made with the old lightning in mind. Over the years the engine got few major updates, so the lightning also changed, so the old map may not look as good when simply ported over to the new engine.

The new map for Chapter 5 has debuted, with plenty of different POI's and biomes to explore (as you'd expect). With Winterfest 2023 upon us, it's expected that the level of snow on the map will slowly recede once the event is over.
Several new POI's have arrived on the Island, including:
•Ritzy Riviera
•Rebel's Roost
•Reckless Railways
•Hazy Hillside
•Grand Glacier Hotel
Five bosses are dotted across the island, and each will drop a Society Medallion when they are defeated. By keeping a Medallion in your inventory, your Shields will automatically regenerate over time, making them highly valuable (and therefore likely contested) items. This effect is exponential, so the more Society Medallions you have, the more your Shield will regenerate with each tick.
If you do hold onto a Society Medallion though, be careful - you'll be marked on your opponent's map, and should you have more than one Medallion, the more precise the pinpoint!
The Grandeur Trailsmasher SUV will be available on the Island, which will be particularly effective when going off-road!
'Cars' is a new section within your Locker, and are composed of three different items:
•Car Bodies
•Decals
•Wheels
The OEM Wheels from Rocket League are automatically in every players Locker. Keep in mind that as with every Locker item, Car Bodies, Decals, and Wheels provide no competitive advantage or bonus.
With a Car assembled in your locker, all you'll need to do is enter a Sports Car within Battle Royale or a relevant creator-made Island, and it'll automatically transform into the Car that you've designed in your Locker! It will then keep this design for the remainder of the match, regardless of what happens. Players will only be able to transform one Sports Car per match.
The Ballistic Shield is a new tool this Season that doubles as a weapon. The Ballistic Shield includes a pistol which you can shoot whilst defending yourself with the shield at the same time. This shield has infinite health, though it'll automatically be dropped if it sustains too much damage.
You can also charge with the shield to knock back enemies and deal damage to them, which can be an excellent way of flushing hiding enemies out of safe spots.
Chapter 5 also introduces other weapons across various weapon types:
•Hammer Pump Shotgun
•Frenzy Auto Shotgun
•Nemesis AR
This Battle Pass allows you to earn XP across Battle Royale, creator-made Islands, as well as the newly-announced LEGO Fortnite, Rocket Racing, and Fortnite Festival experiences.
The Skins for this Season are as follows:
•Oscar
•Vengeance Jones
•Nisha
•Montague
This Season, you'll find Mod Benches inside of Vaults on the island, which will allow you to modify many weapons in exchange for Gold Bars. These mods can increase mag capacity, reduce recoil, and more so are well worthwhile. Not every mod works with every weapon though, so make your choices carefully!
Modded weapons aren't exclusive to Mod Benches though, as you'll often find a modded weapon lying around (as long as it's mod-compatible). These pre-installed mods can still be replaced at Mod Benches. The breakdown is as follows:
•Uncommon - 1 Mod
•Rare - 2 Mods
•Epic - 3 Mods
•Legendary - 4 Mods
The FlowBerry is a new fruit debuting on the Island, which will recover part of your Shield as well as any nearby teammates.
The FlowBerry will also provide you (and nearby teammates) with a temporary low-gravity effect while jumping and falling, with fall damage immunity for the duration of the effect.

- The Big Bang battle pass. It wouldn’t be a proper Fortnite season without a stacked battle pass. The Chapter Five, season one battle pass includes a LEGO collaboration and Family Guy cameos, alongside many other originals.
- Powerful bosses and shield mechanics. The new Fortnite season adds five bosses to the map. Oscar, Nisha, Montague, Valeria, and Peter Griffin of Family Guy will lurk around the map, guarding their precious Society Medallions.
