Patch Notes for Fortnite v34.00 - Chapter 6 Season 2
Fortnite's Chapter 6 Season 2 update is here! Check out everything new below.
The Island has been infused with an abundance of Bars đ°, and now every opportunist is out to hit the jackpot including the ruthless crime kingpin Fletcher Kane. Itâs every bandit for themselves in the ultimate race to get rich!
Map Updates
Crime City
Youâre sure to find mayhem in the seedy underbelly of Crime City, the ultimate stomping ground for all manner of corrupt and crooked misfits. Make sure to visit the Hostile Hotel, Wise Guys Bookstore, and the Launder Mat for a full criminal excursion.
Outlaw Oasis
Unwind at the Outlaw Oasis, a high-end hangout luxury spa and resort where burglars typically relax and recover after a busy day of swiping huge hauls.
Shiny Shafts
You could rob one of Fletcher Kaneâs banks for Bars⌠or you could go right to the source. His mining operation, Shiny Shafts, is a highly contested area above ground and below.
Lonewolf Lair
Security is tight around Fletcherâs mansion hideout, Lonewolf Lair. Anyone bold enough to challenge his growing empire is in for a fight!
Fletcher Kane
The baron Fletcher Kane has set up shop as the Islandâs mob don, and his paws are in every pocket in town. Heâs been known only to appear at the most inopportune moments. Namely, while youâre mid-heist.
Survive Fletcherâs barrage of claw attacks and youâll be awarded with the Mythic Fletcher Kaneâs Double Down Pistol and the Unstoppable Medallion. True to its name, this Medallion increases sprint speed and allows for bashing enemies while sprinting. As a reminder, Medallions make you visible on opponentsâ mini-map. The more Medallions you have, the more precise the radius of your exact location â youâve been warned!
The demon warrior Shogun X still wanders the Island, though his defeat now rewards the Super Shield Medallion, which places down a Shield Bubble Jr. when using a self-healing item like a Med Kit or Shield Potion.
Big Dill
Big Dill is the newest rap artist on the scene in Fortnite. Heâs a mean, green, hot-tempered outlaw aiming to be the grittiest gherkin in the jar. Big Dill & The Brat make up the dynamic duo known as the Tasty Bois.
New in Season 2
Even the best heisters appreciate a how-to, so hereâs what to expect in your malicious mission:
Feel the Rush
All that glitters is yours. Swimming in gold-infused water will put you under the effect of Gold Rush, which increases your speed, how fast your Pickaxe swings, and how much damage your Pickaxe does against structures. You can also gain Gold Rush by mining Gold Veins, which can be excavated with your Pickaxe for Bars.
Big Dill is ballin' out of control thanks to his Dill Bits coin, which has become even more valuable than Bars. Typically sealed behind lock and key in vaults around the Island, Dill Bits donât carry over from match to match, so spend them quickly before your wallet goes to zero! But, uh, to the moon!
Money's Meant to be Spent
Spend your Dill Bits and Gold Bars at one of three Black Markets around the map, offering a selection of Mythic and Legendary items obtained in a totally legit way. Black Markets also offer Boons thatâll make your next break-in a breeze.
Kane, Train & Automobiles
Be wary, if gold moves in this town, youâd better believe Fletcher Kane knows about it. His Armored Transport convoys can be found transporting valuables around the map. Expect a fight with his henchmen if youâre planning to get inside one, but if you can wrestle control of the steering wheel, itâs yours to joyride in.
Raiding Fletcherâs Armored Train promises a lotta loot, though itâs well-known as the most dangerous job in town! Board the train and destroy its turrets to bring it to a screeching halt, then blow open the vault car with Thermite and youâll be rewarded handsomely. Just, be careful â youâre likely to attract the attention of other players while carrying out this âtransaction.â
A Boon of Boons
A new Season means a refreshed slate of Boons! Available only from Black Markets or Rare Chests this Season, Boons persist beyond elimination in the same match (meaning youâll keep them if you get rebooted in the same match). Collect all five!
- Vulture Boon: Reveal where enemies are eliminated on the map for a short time.
- Gold Rush Boon: Opening or destroying Chests grants Gold Rush.
- Adrenaline Rush Boon: Gain the Slap effect (short-term unlimited Energy regen) upon mantling, hurdling, and wall jumping.
- Gold Ammo Boon: Gain ammo when picking up Bars.
- Greed Boon: Find extra Bars from eliminations and opening containers.
New, Nefarious Munitions
We havenât gone over the new tools at your disposal yet. Theyâre great for getting into trouble⌠and staying there.
Items for Vault Busting
The ONLY way to crack a vault is with Thermite, a powerful explosive found stashed away around the map. After youâve planted some, you can set off the explosion faster by damaging the vault's weak points. The Plasma Burst Laser works great for this, as does the Rocket Drill arriving later this Season in v34.10.
Items for Mayhem
Bars canât buy the time needed to pull a heist, but the Collateral Damage Assault Rifle and Falcon Eye Sniper might. And keep an eye out for the formidable Outlaw Shotgun which drops in v34.10.
Big Dillâs fave combo, the dual-wield Pump & Dump, arrives in v34.10 and will be your new close-to-mid-range best friend. Occupying a single weapon slot, hold a Pump Shotgun in one hand and an SMG in the other!
An Item for a Home Run Heist
A favorite of ne'er-do-wells everywhere is The Kneecapper, great for giving opponents a good olâ fashioned whack. Wielding The Kneecapper reduces the Energy cost of sprinting and increases sprint speed and jump height.
Items for Watching Your Back
Youâll find new utility items around the map, such as the protective Port-A-Cover and enemy-detecting Pulse Scanner. Both are tremendously useful for holding off henchmen while you grab all the Bars you can find.
Henchmen and enemy squads interrupting your heist-in-progress? The Med-Mist Grenade helps heal in a pinch, and Gold Splash grants Gold Rush and heals 20 Health (or 20 Shield if youâre at full Health already).
Slay Frosty
Your enemies are about to be on thin ice. The cold-blooded cryomancer Sub-Zero has arrived on the Island and can be recruited to your cause! Be sure to pick up Sub-Zeroâs Kombat Kit, which empowers you to ice slide into opponents and unleash a flurry of frosty fists.
Introducing Moments
Celebrate the start and end of a match with a music Moment! In the Locker, players can now choose a Jam/Lobby Track to play when they drop out of the Battle Bus and one to play when they get a Victory Royale. Players will not hear each other's music, even when spectating, as the chosen Track will only play locally. In split-screen, Player 1âs chosen Track will be the one that plays.
Victory Rewards
Fortnite Battle Royale: LAWLESS ends May 2. The first Victory Royale you bag this Season in Battle Royale or Zero Build will earn you The Vaultbrella! For Ranked players, the Ranker's Vaultbrella can be unlocked too!
