Fortnite Release Notes (Update 9.20): Storm Flip added before E3

Everyone could be distracted by E3, but Epic Games continues to update Fortnite: Battle Royale, as it always does. The new 9.20 content update adds a disposable item called the Storm Turnaround and returns the Sword Fight Limited Time Battle Mode. You can read the full release notes through Epic Games for Update 9.20 below. The patch is now available on PS4, Xbox One, PC, Nintendo Switch and Mobile.

The storm is a new weapon that, according to Epic, "explodes at impact and creates a sphere-shaped area". This area brings Fortnite's diabolical storm into any security zone and secures any storm zone. So you can use it specifically if the storm catches you up – or throw it on an enemy to subject it to the storm's abilities to deal damage to it, even if it was normally safe.

This inverted zone lasts 20 seconds and is only available in Epic rarity, whether it's floor loot, chests and vending machines. Storm flips come in one stack, which is also the maximum number you can hold at any time.

This week's LTM is Sword Fight, which will be familiar to many Fortnite fans. The mode is largely unchanged since the last time it was seen, and yes, the Infinity Blade is available in some treasure chests. Notably, the mode debuted at about the same time that Epic ended support for its Infinity Blade mobile game series.

Elsewhere, the 9.20 update installs the shotgun, which is no longer available in game. Epic explained the decision stating that the "weapon" was somewhat outclassed by the rifle. infantry after being changed to hit ". The developer continued: "There are some sniper rifle options available and we feel that it does not currently fulfill a necessary role in the range of items."

The release of this update coincides with the beginning of the challenges of week 5. Among other things, you will need to locate wind turbines, which we have achieved for you in a practical guide that should help speed up the process.

In other news Fortnites, players have recently spotted a giant eyeball locked in the ice. The eye is under the polar peak. We still do not know what it means for the game. Even if the audience thinks it, it could lead to some kind of community event or even a connection between Godzilla: The King of Monsters, which certainly would not not extraordinary, like Epic. Has already organized events related to John Wick and Avengers: Endgame. You can watch some images of the eyeball here.
