Fortnite‘s New Limited-Time Mode, Steady Storm, Available Now

Fortnite's 5.20 update has arrived for PC, PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and iOS. On top of introducing a brand new weapon along with an assortment of gameplay tweaks to Battle Royale mode, it marks the start from the Fortnite Items for sale 's latest limited-time event: Steady Storm.

As its name implies, Steady Storm mode features one storm that continuously closes in around the island over the course on the entire match. Unlike a standard game of Battle Royale, there are not any safe zones in Steady Storm, so players will need to stay within the move and track with the storm around the map in order to survive.You can find more information about Steady Storm on Fortnite's official website. Epic hasn't specified the length of time the mode will be from the rotation, but limited-time events for example this generally run for around a week before they're replaced by a brand new mode.

Such was the truth with last week's Fly Explosives mode, which began alongside the v5.10 content update.In addition to Steady Storm, Epic also has made a number of tweaks to Playground, Fortnite's ongoing sandbox-style mode. In particular, the developer has reverted chest and floor loot returning to a single weapon spawn "in order to reduce on clutter." Additionally, Epic has added a Fill/No Fill option for the mode selector.

The other big addition in Fortnite Items 's v5.20 update is a brand new weapon for Battle Royale: the Double Barrel Shotgun, a robust new close-range weapon that "packs a punch with everyone of its 2 shots." Meanwhile, Save the World mode received new hero: Ragnarok, the Dark Viking. Save the World remains in paid early access.
