Fortnite Creative 21.20 Update Patch Notes
CHARGE SMG
The Charge SMG is a burst-style SMG that fires when the trigger is released. The longer the trigger is held, the longer the burst. The Charge SMG is available in all rarities (Common, Uncommon, Rare, Epic, Legendary, and Mythic).
RIPSAW LAUNCHER AND FIREWORK FLARE GUN
In case you missed it, the Ripsaw Launcher and Firework Flare Gun were both recently added into Creative! Rip through clutter and make a scene with the dazzling Firework Flare Gun and Ripsaw Launcher.
BALLER SPAWNER DEVICE UPDATE
The Baller now has a default health of 400, so it can take more hits before being destroyed. There’s a new option, Grappler Range, that you can use to increase or decrease the distance someone can grapple to while in the Baller. If you don’t want players to worry about fuel/energy use in your island, the Has Infinite Energy option can be set to On!
HUB CHANGES
Epic introduced a new Hub layout that focuses on giving you a place to showcase your artistic skills. To accomplish this, the developers have removed matchmaking portals and featured rifts. Instead, there are now 8 player rifts so you can continue creating and playing in private parties. There is also one Creator Showcase map selected by the Hub creator.
