Epic Games has updated Fortnite for PS4, Xbox One, PC, and Mobile to introduce two new weapons: the Submachine Gun and the Typewriter Assault Rifle. The first is available in the Battle Royale version of the game, while the last comes to Save the World. The submachine gun is available to play now, alongside all new content added through the Fortnite 5.0 update. The Typewriter Assault Rife, however, becomes available July 18th.
"Make the enemies think twice before pushing you," reads the description of the machine gun. "Run and arm with the new submachine gun, ideal for those intense battles at close range." The Typewrite Assault Rife, meanwhile, is described as a "high-capacity weapon" that "takes the cake when it comes to Husk compensation". Take a look at the breakdown of the new Fortnite patches below, courtesy of Epic.
