Welcome to Season 8 of Fortnite ! That means one massive update to the game. This season?s battle pass features over 100 tiers and over 100 rewards to earn, all of which you get to keep after the season ends. New to all players, the party assist feature allows players to pick a Daily or Weekly Challenge before a match so that your friends can help you complete it. As usual, the battle pass costs 950 V-Bucks aka $9.99.
But this update isn?t just about Season 8. Players can damage locations and structures using the new Pirate Cannon and explore new areas that have emerged as a result of the Volcano, such as Sunny Steps and Lazy Lagoon. The iconic Shopping Cart has been vaulted, alongside the Sneaky Snowman, Chiller Grenade, X-4 Stormwing, and All Terrain Kart.
Current limited-time modes include 50 vs 50, where players are divided into two massive teams. Another is Close Encounters, which involves nothing but shotguns and jetpacks.
Creative mode has new voice chat options, in which players can ?share a single channel while in Creative, regardless of team, then choose who you chat with when playing.? Players can experiment with new jungle-themed prefabs and enjoy Playgrounds, which is now part of Creative.
Of course, Save the World has some of the most massive updates. These include many features, all the way down to a new Hero Loadout system.
Below are the Fortnite patch notes in their entirety.
