Eren Jaeger from the well-known anime series Attack on Titan has been added to Fortnite as part of the most recent update, version 24.20. Players can employ Thunder Spears and Eren Jaeger’s distinctive ODM (Omni-Directional Mobility) gear in-game.
In the Attack on Titan series, the Survey Corps uses specialized gear called ODM gear. The ability to move swiftly and effectively can offer players an advantage in combat. On the other hand, Thunder Spears are explosive weapons that can severely harm foes.
Not the first anime character to join the Fortnite Battle Royale lineup is Eren Jaeger. In the past, characters like Goku and Naruto were also included. A sizable anime fandom has been drawn to Fortnite as a result of the presence of these characters.
The v24.20 update adds Eren Jaeger along with other modifications including new weapons, cosmetics, and bug fixes. For additional details on the most recent update, players can visit the Fortnite website.
Now let’s check out the official patch notes of Fortnite v24.20.
Fortnite v24.20 Update Patch Notes
BATTLE FROM ABOVE: ODM GEAR
Retrievable from the ground, Chests, and Scout Regiment Footlockers, put on Omni-Directional Mobility (ODM) Gear. Having this apparatus equipped will give you the ability to grapple in the air and strike opponents below! After attacking with the built-in blades, you’ll immediately boost back into the air so you can grapple elsewhere… or hover and execute another attack.
Think you’ve mastered the ODM Gear? Try knocking down Titan Targets on the Island!
FIGHT EXPLOSIVELY: THUNDER SPEARS
Also retrievable from the ground, Chests, and Scout Regiment Footlockers, Thunder Spears are arm-launched rockets designed to penetrate armored structures, detonating to damage enemies on both sides!
