Hi, all!

Starting today with the release of v18.20, “Lifetime Return Requests” have become simply “Return Requests.” So what’s different?

In cases where you would like to return an item purchased with V-Bucks, you have three Return Requests. If you use one, it will refresh 365 days following the most recent Return Request that was refreshed (up to a maximum of 3 Return Requests). Only items purchased with V-Bucks within the last 30 days are eligible for refund. Consumable items — such as the Battle Pass, Battle Pass Levels, or Llamas — are not returnable.

Return Requests are available via the Account and Privacy menu. If you made a Return Request before the release of v18.20, you've received...

If you’ve been around a while, you know this Cube war isn’t the first time the Cube Monsters have shown their faces. But you also may remember a certain anti-Monster projectile: the Fiend Hunter Crossbow.

Well, with the latest hotfix, we’ve got something even more anti-Monster. Fight back with the Dual Fiend Hunters!


Dual Fiend Hunters: Fight Fiends Faster

Fortnite Dual Fiend Hunters

So you’re venturing into The Sideways to get some Sideways weapons. Like the Fiend Hunter Crossbow, the Dual Fiend Hunters deal extra damage to Cube Monsters. But here’s what’s different: being more modern, the Hunters have a faster fire rate than their Crossbow predecessor.

Post

From the adorned but worn laptop of Charlotte.

No, I’m not J.B., but both he and I are against The Cubes. I mean, The Sideways is kind of cool, but other than that, I’m fully on his side.

Well actually not fully. Digging into the IO takes up pretty much all my time, but I’m at least doing a favor by writing this in his place. Here’s what’s new that can help you on the Island:


New Chug Splash Flavor: Chili Chug Splash

Staying on top of the IO 24/7 takes A LOT of energy… which is why the new Chug Splash flavor couldn’t have come at a better time. 

The Chug Splash people just dropped Chili Chug Splash, Chug Splash with a kick. It restores Health and Shield like you’d expect, but it also gives you such an energy boost it’ll give you a speed boost too. Think of eating a Spicy Fish or a Pepper. (Or don’t th...

You may have already created chaos as Carnage himself, featured in the Chapter 2 Season 8 Battle Pass. On the Island, you may even have bonded with the Venom Symbiote.

Inspired by the anticipated film Venom: Let There Be Carnage, you can now unleash the Symbiote fully! The new Eddie Brock Outfit is available in the Item Shop, and when you’re ready to cut loose, use the built-in Venom Unleashed Emote to transform into the lethal protector Venom. (You can START the match as Venom by selecting the Style in the Locker.) Unlike the Venom Outfit, this version is based on the upcoming new film.

The Venom Unleashed Emote… unleashed.


The Eddie Brock Outfit also comes with the Symbiote Scythe Pickaxe. Eddie Brock — with the included Emote and Pickaxe — is available individually or as...
