Raven and Ravage are back in today's Fortnite shop.
General information
The store in Fortnite Battle Royale is refreshed daily, and offers new cosmetic items for use in the game. These purchases are strictly decorative, and do not offer any advantage in game.
There are four types of items in the shop:
- Skins that change the appearance of the character you control.
- Gliders that change the appearance of the parachute you use to descend on the map,
- Harvesting equipment that changes the appearance of the pickaxe your character uses to destroy objects on the map and collect resources.
- Emotes are animations that your character can perform on command.
- Animations can consist of a simple wave, acrobatics or dances. Each animation has its own sound effects, and almost all the dances are accompanied by a melody of their own. The shop is divided into two parts: the "headline items" part, which contains items that are generally more rare, more expensive and typically remain available in the shop for forty-eight hours. The second is "items of the day" and always contains two skins, two animations, a glider and a pickaxe. Items in this category are less rare and less expensive, and will only remain available in the shop for 24 hours.
With Fortnite patch 10.40.1, Epic Games has raised the issue of matchmaking head-on. This time the publisher is attacking smurfing — experienced players who recreate accounts to play in lower level games.
