Fortnite v5.10 Patch Notes, Details

Published

on

Fortnite v5.10 update is here and it arrives alongside a compact SMG P90, a new Save the World storyline, and some cosmetics for Battle Royale.

Here are the full patch notes:

Fortnite v5.10 Patch Notes:

The headline features from this week’s patch are as follows:

  • Compact SMG (P90)

Following the big buff to SMGs in recent weeks, there’s a brand new legendary tier gun to try out in Battle Royale: the Compact SMG. It bears a striking resemblance to the real-world P90, a Belgian bullpup submachine gun that’s been used in tons of games from N64 classic Goldeneye 007 to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare.

The Compact SMG’s high capacity magazine and fast rate of fire mean that it’s sure to melt people at close range – making it a viable alternative to the nerfed shotguns.

  • #Fortnite1st Birthday

To celebrate a whole year of Fortnite, Epic Games are releasing a set of themed cosmetics for Battle Royale, as well as an in-game questline and loot for Save the World. We’ll have more on how to complete the challenges when they drop, so stay tuned.

  • Playground LTM

As we found out earlier this week, after some teething trouble the Playground LTM will return on July 25. Now that the ATK Golf Carts have been added to the game we’re totally going to see some awesome tracks from the community.
