ALTHOUGH we usually have to wait two weeks for a major Fortnite update, we’ve got one early.
With this update, some of the “Thor: Love and Thunder” cosmetics and items released last week are now equipable in Fortnite.

The Stormbreak Pickaxe is among them, and it’s already proving a fan favourite item.
The main highlight of this update is the new Prime Shotgun weapon.
Last week’s Fortnite update gave us a new Assault Rifle, but this new weapon packs a bit more of a punch, which we’ll give you all the details on now.

This shotgun has a lot of power behind it, which goes nicely with the other weapons added in Chapter 3 Season 3, but you’ll need to be tactical with your shots to get the most out of it.
It has four shots in a clip, and the first shot of a clip will deal more damage than the other three.
This makes it the perfect weapon for an ambush, you’ll have your opponents down before they even know what hit them.
The gun has a special light display on the side indicating how many shots you have left in a clip, although you can still use the on-screen ammo counter.

As of today, this weapon spawns anywhere guns can be found. In chests, on the ground, in supply drops, even fishing.
The gun will not be included in competitive playlists yet.
Major bug fixes – Fortnite patch 21.30
As always, some bugs have been squashed in this update, making for a smoother playing experience.
Firstly, you will no longer freeze after sliding or mantling on Nintendo Switch, so you can return to that console if you abandoned it because of this bug.
The Rift-To-Gos have had a touch-up, fixing an issue that caused them to fail if you swapped weapons too quickly after using one.

The weapon crosshair no longer scales with the HUD size, keeping your accuracy as sharp as ever.
Those are the most important changes, but you can see the full Fortnite patch notes on the official Epic Games blog.
