Latest Fortnite Patch Emphasizes Things That Go Boom
Never content to rest on its laurels, this week brings another update to the world-shaking behemoth Fortnite.
A new LTM promises jetpacks, rocket launchers, and other explosives for squads to pelt each other with. It even brings back the guided missile (although its damage has been toned down a bit).
The patch also includes a new single-shot sniper rifle for Save the World. The gun has a lot of gold on it, which presumably means it's very good.
We reviewed Fortnite a little while ago; if it keeps growing this quickly, we'll have to make Fortnite reviews an annual event.

I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
