Machine pistols and shotguns had been at the heart of the recent balancing changes in Fortnite. Machine pistols had often seen their recharge times reduced, while the latter were "nerfed" in most of their variants. Nothing new on the horizon for assault rifles until this week's update!
Dataminers around the world have given a glimpse of what is likely to be the next assault rifle in the game. Let's say it right away: it looks like a very good weapon at first sight.
In its legendary variant, this rifle inflicts 46 basic damages.
In the video below, the Hypex leaker unveils some gameplay of this potential new weapon.
It remains to be seen if this rifle will be released soon. The last weapon integrated by Epic Games on the battle royale was the Harpoon Gun, and this had been done on the sly by the publisher! We can expect to see this heavy weapon land at any time!
Epic Games organizes its very first "virtual" fishing contest on Fortnite. Trophies, pickaxes and sprays are to be won! Note that A2F must be enabled to participate.
