Master of espionage (and definitely probably not a Life-Model Decoy), Nick Fury of S.H.I.E.L.D. sneaks onto the Island to root out Cube corruption. Defend the Island from the supernatural Cube threat with the new S.H.I.E.L.D. Set available in the Item Shop!


The S.H.I.E.L.D. Set Items

Fortnite S.H.I.E.L.D. Set Items
 
This isn’t the first time Nick Fury has dealt with supernatural Cubes. In addition to the Outfit, you can pick up the following accessories:

  • F.I.E.L.D. Pack Back Bling (sold with the Outfit): Just the thing for Front-line Infiltration, Espionage, and Long-term Deployment.

It's almost time to employ a new fighting strategy in the war against the Cubes. But before that, it's time now to decide the next item to bring into the war...


War Effort: Proximity Grenade Launcher vs. Flint-Knock Pistol

Fortnite Proximity Grenade Launcher vs. Flint-Knock Pistol

The war effort’s again taking a look back at the classics — putting forth two unconventional weapons for Loopers’ consideration. With the Proximity Grenade Launcher, launch grenades that go off by just being near someone. Or with the Flint-Knock Pistol, go flying back for extra evasiveness (and mobility) when you shoot it. 

Help the war effort decide which one to bring int...

Hey Creators,

Today we are launching the Support Device to all creators!

Our goal is for creators to be able to make amazing, high-quality content, and for our players to have the best experience possible. 

Part of a great experience is ensuring that other players are present and that matches are full. We’ve been looking into this area and seen fewer full matches than we’d expect. Some of these issues were bugs (and some have already been addressed), but others are a result of how we’re incentivizing creators.

The current pre-game HUD ‘Support Me’ feature has been in use for a while, and hasn’t proven itself. It doesn’t provide a consistent player experience across platforms, it isn’t part of the game world itself, and it's only fit for lobbies. That last point is particularly important, as it has ended up incentivising the use of lobbies, even when ...

For those who don’t shy away from new heights. For those who aren’t afraid of the climb.

As you’re ascending the mountain near Catty Corner, building a tower, or elevating another way, watch your fashion transform as you go up — and also come back down.

A Nindo (Ninja Way) is a personal rule or promise to oneself that each Shinobi lives by. 

In NARUTO SHIPPUDEN you will often hear Naruto Uzumaki state:

“I’m not going to run away! I never go back on my word! That’s my Nindo: my Ninja way!”

Naruto overcame great obstacles by following his Nindo. Now, we are presenting you with a series of challenges - will you run away, or will you channel Naruto’s Nindo and walk away with in-game rewards (maybe even your very own Kurama Glider, the great and powerful nine-tailed beast!)

Starting at 04:00 AM ET on November 17 until 11:59 PM ET on November 21, players have the opportunity to complete The Nindo challenges to earn in-game rewards!  Fortnite Kurama Glider

“I never go back on my word. That’s my nindo, my ninja way!” - Naruto Uzumaki

Straight from the mind of Masashi Kishimoto, the much-loved characters of the anime series ‘NARUTO SHIPPUDEN’ arrive in Fortnite!

The wait is over 

Naruto Uzumaki, the number one most unpredictable ninja and Jinchuriki host of the all-powerful nine-tailed beast is ready — along with the rest of Team 7 — to take you through to a Victory Royale! 

Accompanying Naruto, the other members of Team 7:  
 
Sasuke Uchiha: Experienced with the impressive visual Jutsu of the Sharingan and one of the last surviving members of the Uchiha clan.

Sakura Haruno: Doe-eyed for Sasuke, she has taken her fiery inner-voice, deft control of chakra, and extreme strength to become one of the greatest Kunoichi.

Kakashi Hatake: Known as The Copy Ni...

Update 18.40 is here and the Island is destabilizing, two classic vehicles return, and Naruto Uzumaki and the rest of Team 7 arrive!   
 

War Effort: The Salvaged B.R.U.T.E.



The Cube Queen has deployed countless warriors, and corruption is spreading fast throughout the Island. To fight back, the war effort against the Cubes is producing some big guns of their own. 

Meet the Salvaged B.R.U.T.E. Battling the Sideways has left the war effort short on supplies, meaning this Salvaged B.R.U.T.E. has a stripped down armor hull with no overshield, making it easier for clever opponents to counter and dismantle. However, it comes battle-ready with combat effectiveness tailored for taking on wave after wave of Cube Monsters.

Of course, Salvaged B.R.U.T.E. Stations need Bars to get off the ground… lo...

“I am Fire and Life incarnate! Now and forever - I am Phoenix!”  

Jean Grey, hit by a cosmic force that transcended her into becoming Phoenix, has been manipulated into something even darker! 

Already possessing powerful telekinetic and telepathic abilities in the Marvel universe, the cosmic blast that occurred during a rescue mission set Jean Grey on an unexpected path. That path now brings Dark Phoenix to the Fortnite Island!


Available in the Item Shop now:

  • Dark Phoenix Outfit: She is fire! And life incarnate! 

  • The Phoenix Force Back Bling: Only a sliver of its infinite, cosmic power. (Comes with the Dark Phoenix Outfit)

As part of the war effort, you voted with your Bars to fund the Combat Assault Rifle, a new Assault Rifle variation. Now another Combat class weapon enters the war against the Cubes. Already manufactured, the new Combat Pistol is on the Island now!


Combat Pistol: Power with a Kick

Fortnite Combat Pistol

Like the Combat Assault Rifle, the Combat Pistol sports a tight bullet spread and exceptional power. This power coincides with strong recoil, so it takes a savvy yielder to fire its full potential. 

Combat Pistols can be found in Chests, on the ground, and from fishing. The standard Pistol has been vaulted as the Combat Pistol has been distributed throughout the Island.

The November 2 hotfix for v18.30 shows cold feet doesn’t need to mean no confidence. With the new Icy Grappler, get cold feet to help approach enemies more courageously!


Be Evasive with the Icy Grappler

Some people like to stick the landing. Others like to stay moving after landing. If you’re the latter type, the Icy Grappler is up your alley! Just like the regular Grappler, shoot its suction cup to fling yourself to a solid surface, but here’s the chilly twist: as you begin flying in the air, the Icy Grappler’s frostiness will freeze your feet, causing you to stay moving when you get to your destination.

How’s this slipperiness advantageous? Evade your enemies’ crosshairs as they have a hard time predicting where you’ll end up next. Tip: Aim the Icy Grappler at a hill to make it your slide! 

The Icy Grappler is Exotic...
