Overview
- Fortnite’s core Battle Royale is live on the Golden Coast island, where players deploy via ‘Storm Surf’ instead of the Battle Bus at launch.
- Epic says the Battle Bus comes back on December 4 as part of a phased rollout that also brings back Reload with Surf City and Blitz Royale with Starfall Island, with Fortnite OG on December 11 and Delulu on December 12.
- Down-But-Not-Out gameplay is reshaped by a Self-Revive Device, new roll, tumble, and sprint options while knocked, and drivable Reboot Vans for mobile squad revives.
- Combat and building see key quality-of-life additions including the Simple Build setting, reload progress that carries over after interruptions, clearer hit markers, and aiming down sights while jumping.
- The season adds seven new weapons, a battle pass headlined by The Bride and Marty McFly alongside Fortnite originals, and the in-engine premiere of Quentin Tarantino’s The Lost Chapter: Yuki’s Revenge.
