Fortnite Chapter 3 new leaked weapons

While players wait for Fortnite Chapter 3 to begin, fresh weapon leaks have begun to appear. Fortnite Chapter 3 appears to be on the verge of launching. While we don't have a specific date, a number of leaks have begun to surface online. In particular, in the closing days of November 2021, we learned of two new weapons.

Fortnite Chapter 3 new leaked weapons

HYPEX, a Fortnite leaker on Twitter, is responsible for both of the weapon leaks featured here. The first is a brand-new "Throwable Axe" item that appears to be capable of delivering damage.

We expect you will be able to toss it at adversaries based on the name, but we'll have to wait and see how it works. The other weapon has a full set of stats, but no in-game visual to show off just yet, unlike the Axe.

HYPEX speculated that it could be a hacked Flint-Knock Pistol, which makes sense given the stats, which are close to those of the original weapon.

It has a five-round clip and, like the Flint-Knock, fires one shot at a time. You won't have to reload it after every shot, despite the fact that it deals less damage. When you do have to reload, though, it will take longer – 5.5 to 6.5 seconds.

This weapon does far less damage every shot, but you don't have to reload after each one. It also has a 4x headshot multiplier, which increases the damage to above 100.

Of course, these are only rumors at the moment, and we won't be able to confirm anything until Epic releases official information. However, HYPEX has proven to be accurate in the past, so we'll simply have to wait till Chapter 3 is released to find out for sure.
