Highlights of the patch notes for Fortnite
Battle Royale
The remote detonator is coming. It occurs at a rarity level of “rare”. It can be found in stacks of 4. It is C4 that you can place and then detonate from a distance. A trailer shows the detonator in action:
For this, the smoke grenade is being removed. They have been underused by players in Fortnite: Battle Royale. Epic wants to revise them now.
Supply Llamas are supposed to provide loot where players least expect it.
The new limited-time mode is “Fast-paced” – it will be available starting Monday, March 19th. Matches here last a maximum of 15 minutes, but there is faster loot, and the storm grows quickly, leaving you little space.
Save the World (PvE)
Here comes the next chapter of the Spring Storm event – it is in the spirit of the Irish St. Patrick’s Day. Epic has prepared 3 legendary heroes in St. Patrick’s theme, and there is also an epic Leprechaun survivor. Quests in Fortnite: Save the World are series of missions that can be completed during the “regular missions”.
In the event shop, there will be the Shamrock Fighter, which is an explorer.
Additionally, the weapon and hero caps have been worked on.
