Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 1 has just arrived, bringing a complete overhaul to the weapon lineup. If you’ve jumped into a match recently, you might have noticed that your go-to weapons are missing.
This is due to Epic Games doing some serious spring cleaning – they vaulted nearly everything from Chapter 2 Remix and rolled out a brand-new selection of weapons.
The good news? This new chapter is packed with thrilling new weapons and points of interest to discover. Let’s take a closer look at the armaments available now, what’s been put away in the vault, and what has made a return.
Chapter 6’s brand new weapon change
One major change in gameplay for Chapter 6 is that all weapons are now Hitscan, meaning there’s no projectile drop to worry about when aiming. This adjustment simplifies combat and could make it more accessible for new players. The new season features seven primary weapons:
- Holo Twister Assault Rifle
- Fury Assault Rifle
- Veiled Precision SMG
- Surgefire SMG
- Sentinel Pump
- Twinfire Auto Shotgun
- Oni Shotgun
Some special equipment fluffs
All changes aside, there are also some unique combat options that are now a part of Fortnite Season 1 Chapter 6.
- Typhoon Blade
- Fire Oni Mask
- Void Oni Mask
And there are also some fan-favorite weapons that have been added back to the game!
