Fortnite update 20.20 patch notes

Ranger Shotgun.

The Ranger Shotgun is a brand new weapon that has been added to the Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2 treasure pool. It will be fascinating to see how this alters the meta with a single shot, a break-action shotgun that provides significant damage and can be utilized at longer ranges than the shotguns already available.

Prowler is about to arrive in the Battle Pass

Players have been waiting for the Prowler skin to be unlocked since the Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2 Battle Pass went live, since it has been hidden behind a lock... until this week. The Prowler skin should be available on Thursday, April 21, and players will be able to obtain it by completing a series of Prowler Quests across the island. Prepare yourself!

The Imagined Order's second major fight with The Seven has ended, and the IO Blimp at this site has now crashed into the ocean nearby.
