The Getaway

The Getaway (aka High Stakes) is a Limited Time Mode in Fortnite: Battle Royale. The Getaway was introduced during Season 5 with Update v5.40 on September 6th 2018.
==LTM Rules and Gameplay==
In this LTM, four safes have been loaded into Supply Drops scattered around the island, each carrying a large jewel. Players and their teams must locate a safe, pick up the prize inside, and getaway with the goods while battling enemies. The first four teams to make their way to a van with a jewel and getaway win.
===Jewels===
*Jewels can be found in special supply drop safes, located along the edge of the first storm circle. The safes take a long time to open, so make sure the area is clear before attempting to claim a Jewel.
*Four Jewels will be in play on the map at all times. If a player escapes with a Jewel or one is lost in the storm, a new supply drop will bring a replacement.
* When a Jewel is picked up, it will be visible on the map to everyone for 30 seconds.
*Carrying a Jewel will give players health & shields over time, but also slow them down by 10%.

===Getaway Van===
*Four total Getaway Vans will be in the map: three that arrive early in the match and one more that shows up near the end.
*Getaway Vans float in mid-air. Jewel carriers must build up and then interact with them in order to complete a Getaway.
* The goal is to find or steal a Jewel and take it to one of the vans in order to secure a Victory Royale.
*Once they arrive, safe drops and Getaway Vans will be visible on the map at all times.

==Strategy Guide==
In this LTM, it is ideal to land at a small, unpopulated location that has a moderate amount of chests and is close to one of the "pursuit" supply drops.
==Trivia==
*As they are brought into the island through Rifts, the Getaway Vans fall down to the ground, and contain physics while in this state. Shortly after, their balloons are deployed so that they can stay afloat mid-air.
