Epic Games has confirmed that the next Fortnite Season 5 update, Patch 15.40, is scheduled for February 16th. Here are all the juicy details about all the new content that is already being called "the most amazing in the history" of the game.
This patch has been causing a stir since the end of last week when a Japanese content creator Urara made a statement that it would be "messy" and "the most amazing thing in the world." The YouTuber, who has over a million subscribers, also named February 16 as his upcoming release date.
Looks like we'll see an influx of new content at 15.40.
Epic has announced the return of the "unbeatable favorite" along with new exotics, two new LTMs, including popular returning mode Fortnite, and more. As usual, the update also includes a bug fix package.
Here's everything we'll see in 15.40:16 p.m., starting with all the details about the upcoming server shutdown and a description of the February XNUMXth update.
When will Fortnite v15.40 be released?
Epic Games has officially locked the v15.40 update for Tuesday, February 16th. Downtime is expected to start at 12:00 Moscow time.
The upcoming Fortnite update may be a bit bigger than usual as Epic is "removing unreleased assets and props used on some creative islands." Once this cleanup is complete, the game file size will be reduced.
Expect a long downtime for patch v15.40. Fortnite matchmaking will be disabled 20-25 minutes before the new Chapter 5 Season 2 update.
Fortnite Patch 15.40 Early Notes
New LTMs: Air Royale, Floor is Lava
The latest Fortnite patch aims to bring back two of the most popular LTMs: "Floor is Lava" and "Air Royale".
Paul, this lava was a huge hit when it was added a couple of years ago. The rules are simple. Lava gradually rises from the lowest parts of the map, and players need to hustle to keep themselves safe on higher ground.
Air Royale was another popular mode that allows players to live out their dream as a Top Gun pilot. It revolves around players fighting in planes and if they touch the ground they will instantly die.
Fortnite is bringing back the "unbeatable favorite"
Epic also teased the return of " unsurpassed favorite » in update v15.40. The Fortnite developers have yet to confirm what the weapon might be, but have speculated that it will be a "bomb" when it is finally revealed.
Keeping in mind the "explosion" joke, uninhabited weapons can be Proximity Grenade Launcher (last seen in version 10.20) or even the Quad Launcher that was built into the store back in version 7.20.
If it is a throwable or collectible weapon and not a weapon, we may see the infamous Proximity Mines, which will reappear in v15.40. Other options also include remote explosives, air strikes, dynamite, and more.
Along with the unbeatable "favorite", Epic also adds "more exotics for allies (and enemies)" to collect throughout the game.
