This thread was added on March 29, 2021, with posts from TheFortniteTeam.

Hey, r/FortNiteBR!

A new update is about to hatch.

v16.10 is scheduled for release on March 30. Downtime will begin at approx. 4 AM ET (08:00 UTC).

This update unleashes:

πŸ₯š A new apex predator stalking the Island.
🦴 Crafting and loot adjustments!

What are these adjustments?

βœ… Primal Shotgun fire rate reduced.
βœ… Adjustments for the Makeshift Shotgun.
βœ… Crafting material costs now scale with Makeshift rarity.
βœ… Animal Bones and Mechanical Parts can appear as added floor loot.

Additionally, this week, we’re experimenting with bringing back moving Storm Circles to non-competitive modes for the last two zones. Let us know what you think!

Please note:

  • As a reminder, the Zero Crisis Finale will remain available as a playlist until the downtime for v16.10.
  • The patch size will be larger than normal on PC.
