Fortnite players can look forward to more changes as we approach the end of 2018, with dynamite on the way in an upcoming release, and a possible snowstorm that will bring a winter theme to the Battle Royale map.
Here’s what you have to look forward to.
Fire up your consoles for this week’s Fortnite update.
Version 6.3 brings a new Food Fight game mode and the recently-teased mounted turret. It also removes glider redeploy (finally!) from all default modes, though it will stick around in larger team modes like Disco Domination and Soaring 50s.
This week’s Fortnite update will bring a mounted turret to Battle Royale.
The new weapon will need to be fixed to the ground and is likely to pack a ton of power — but you’ll need to watch how you use it because it can overheat.
If you thought Fortnite already reached its peak, think again.
Epic Games confirms that its hit Battle Royale game now boasts a staggering 8.3 million concurrent players worldwide. The number more than doubled since February, thanks in part to the game’s recent launch in South Korea.
Fortnite’s weekly update has arrived with the long-awaited Heavy Assault Rifle. It deals more damage that any other AR but has a smaller magazine size so you’ll have to keep an eye on your ammo.
The version 6.22 patch also brings the Team Terror and Blitz limited-time game modes and a number of tweaks and improvements.
Football fans will soon be able to fight for victory wearing their favorite NFL jersey in Fortnite Battle Royale. Starting Friday, November 9, you’ll be able to purchase team outfits from the in-game item shop and add your own squad number.

Balloons are the hottest item in the patch notes this week, alongside some nice improvements. Glider re-deploy is sticking around for now, too, but some other items have been banished to the vault.
Epic Games won’t let any season or event pass by without celebrating it inside Fortnite Battle Royale, so it’s no surprise the company has something big up its sleeve for Halloween. Get ready for the mysterious “Fortnitemares.”
Teased on Twitter over the weekend, Fortnitemares is … some kind of … something. All we really know so far is that it will be popping up in Battle Royale soon.

Google could miss out on a $50 million payday this year alone as a result of Epic Games’ decision not to distribute Fortnite for Android through the Play Store.
