The third and final v7.10 Content Update for Fortnite Battle Royale went live on January 8, introducing a number of cool changes and new items like the Suppressed Sniper Rifle!
A significant amount of information relating to the Content Update had already been revealed ahead of time, giving us a good idea of what to expect. Now that the patch notes have been released, we know even more!
Below, you can find everything that you need to know, including the patch notes.
Suppressed Sniper Rifle
The game’s first silent sniper was originally announced in the in-game news section on January 7.
The description for the Suppressed Sniper Rifle is as follows: “Trade power for stealth with the Suppressed Sniper Rifle. Drop in now and sneak up on your enemies!”
The Suppressed Sniper Rifle was announced on January 7
Now that the notes are live, we can share all of the relevant statistics and information about the new weapon:
Suppressed Sniper Rifle added.
- Available in Epic and Legendary variants.
- Can be found from chests, floor loot, Vending Machines, and Supply Drops.
- A single shot, scoped sniper rifle.
- The suppressor makes for a quieter shot, trading stealth for power.
- Deals 100/105 base damage
Dual Pistols
Calling the Dual Pistols ‘new’ might be a stretch, as they were first introduced way back in Season 4 and were only removed during Season 6.
However, the fact that Eric Williamson, the Design Lead for Fortnite, confirmed they were making a return made us think that they would have undergone some major adjustments.
However, the patch notes simply refer to them being ‘unvaulted’. The Dual Pistols, while fun to use at times, never really found their niche and were rarely used. It will interesting to see if anything has changed that wasn’t included in the notes.
Dual Pistols were vaulted in Season 6.
Skins and cosmetics
New skins and cosmetic items are a given with just about every Fortnite update, so don’t expect this one to be any different….
