In the new Fortnite update, they released a new sniper rifle, two new limited time modes, and more! The new Heavy Sniper Rifle delievers devastating damage to enemies and even more to structures. Can be found from floor loot, chests, Supply Drops, Vending Machines, and is available in Epic and Legendary variants. It deals 150/157 damage to players. Projectiles fired from it have less bullet drop in comparison to other snipers. Two bugs have been fixed in the latest update. Grenades now properly grant progress for the Week 5 Challenge: ?Deal damage to players with a Clinger, Stink Bomb, or Grenade.? Also the cloth physics have been fixed and will now appear properly.
Soaring 50?s is a new limited time mode that has recently been added. This mode is similar to the 50 vs 50. The only difference is that gliders can be re-deployed when falling from large heights. Also, additional impulse grenades, bounce pads, and launch pads will be spawned throughout the map. When in mid-air and greater than 10m up, press Jump to deploy your glider.
The limited time mode Sniper Shootout is back and updated. For those of you who have never played this game mode before, it is snipers only! In the updated version, the scopes assault rifle have been removed and the new sniper has been added. You can check out the link below for the full details on the new weapon, limited time modes, and other updates.
