Fortnite patch notes – Chapter 2 Season 3

Epic Games hasn’t updated the official list of patches coming to the new season, but here’s what we know so far.

New Weapons

Developers have mixed up the loot pool which has been the case with most of the new Fortnite seasons. Players can expect a range of new weapons coming to Fortnite along with a bunch of consumables and other items. Several Fortnite data miners have also hinted that a number of new weapons may be added to the game for the first time, or brought back from the past seasons.

Here is a list of all the weapons, consumables or other items you can expect with the upcoming season:

• Flare Gun
• Combat Shotgun
• Bubble Shields
• Chug Splashes
• Chug Jug
• Infantry Rifle
• New Map

Underwater map

Fortnite recently held its end-of-season event called The Device. The event appears to have made some major changes to the Storm causing a chain reaction. It is likely that fans will get to see a big change to the Fortnite map once the new season finally kicks off.

It is expected that much of the Fortnite Season 3 will be water-themed. The map has seen enough changes after the latest Doomsday event and it’s safe to assume that the new season will indeed take place underwater. If you look at the map right now, it is surrounded by walls of water, where only the centre portion is still playable.

Unfortunately, the event only had a limited capacity, meaning a number of users weren't able to experience the event in-game themselves. Epic had warned users of limited server capacity, but there was no indication of what it meant exactly.
