Fortnite's Latest Update: A Blast from the Past and Festive Fun!

Fortnite's newest update is a holiday treat for players, bringing back beloved items and introducing festive cheer. Fan-favorite gear, including the Hunting Rifle and Launch Pad, makes a triumphant return. This follows a recent hotfix for the OG mode, which also reintroduces the nostalgic Cluster Clinger.

Winterfest is in full swing, blanketing the island in snow and offering event quests, new items like Icy Feet and the Blizzard Grenade, and exciting skins featuring Mariah Carey and others. Beyond the holiday festivities, Fortnite continues its streak of collaborations, including partnerships with Cyberpunk 2077 and Batman Ninja.

The recent Fortnite hotfix is small but significant, particularly for veteran players. The OG mode receives a boost with the return of Launch Pads – a Chapter 1, Season 1 classic. These iconic traversal tools, predating other mobility options, offer players strategic advantages, whether for surprise attacks or swift escapes.

Classic Weapons and Items Return to Fortnite

  • Launch Pad
  • Hunting Rifle
  • Cluster Clinger

The comeback isn't limited to Launch Pads. The Hunting Rifle (Chapter 3) and Cluster Clingers (Chapter 5) also reappear in both Battle Royale and Zero Build modes, offering players alternative combat strategies, especially given the absence of sniper rifles in Chapter 6, Season 1.

Fortnite's OG mode has been a resounding success, attracting 1.1 million players within its first two hours. Alongside the mode's launch, an OG Item Shop opened, offering classic skins and items for purchase. However, the return of ultra-rare skins like the Renegade Raider and Aerial Assault Trooper has sparked mixed reactions among players.
