Fortnite x Dragon Ball

Goku powers up Fortnite x Dragon Ball in v21.40! Check out our Fortnite x Dragon Ball blog post for what’s in this collaboration, including: 
 

  • “Power Unleashed!” Quests for raising your Power Level. Raise your Power Level to unlock rewards like the Dragon Radar Back Bling, Emotes, Sprays, and Battle Pass Levels!
     

  • Versus Boards that pit you and a rival player against one other to see who’s the Island’s strongest.
     

  • The Kamehameha and Nimbus Cloud (Kintoun) items falling from the sky in deliveries invented by Capsule Corp.
     

  • The Dragon Ball Super Episode Festival in Discover: board a cruise ship to chill out and watch select Dragon Ball Super episodes.
     

  • Go on a Dragon Ball collecting adventure in the Dragon Ball Adventure Island.
     

  • Harness your power and unleash it in the Tournament of Power on August 18. Compete in this Battle Royale Duos tournament for a chance to earn the Angry Vegeta Emoticon, Goku's Kanji Banner Icon, and Beerus Eating Spray!
     

  • Son Goku, Vegeta, Bulma, and Beerus in the Item Shop.


Avast at Last: Launch Yourself at Lazy Lagoon

The Reality Tree has transformed The Daily Bugle into Lazy Lagoon! Show off your sea legs in this remix of a classic POI.

Lazy Lagoon’s return also means the return of Pirate Cannons, so gather a crew of two or heave ho solo. If you have all hands on deck (you and a teammate), one player can steer this swashbuckling vehicle while the other player braces in the barrel. The player in the barrel can control the barrel’s direction then launch themselves at any time. Aim where you see a faraway coffer or safety from a pillage.

Fortnite Pirate Cannon

What if you’re buccaneering by yourself? If you’re steering the Pirate Cannon, you can launch an endless amount of cannonballs (with a cooldown between each shot). Alternatively, you can enter the barrel and launch yourself farrr (sorry).

90 FPS on Compatible Android Devices

Some Android devices now have access to running Fortnite at 90 FPS. If your device is compatible, you will find this option available in the settings within the Video tab (the default tab when opening the settings). If your device does not have this option available, this means it does not meet the technical requirements.

Please note that toggling this option on may drain the power of your device and/or increase the heat output. When this happens, the FPS will be reduced.

Players whose device previously had 90 FPS available will find the option has been re-enabled on their device. 


Competitive Notes

  • The Kamehameha and Nimbus Cloud (Kintoun) items are not in competitive playlists, with the exception of the Tournament of Power.

  • Pirate Cannons are not included in competitive playlists.


Major Bug Fixes

  • Fixed an issue in which Chest loot at certain locations would come out several meters away or not at all.

  • Fixed an issue in which players would sometimes lose an inventory slot when picking up a Chug Cannon.

  • Fixed an issue that would sometimes kick players out of Edit Mode.

  • Fixed an issue involving players being unable to switch devices for voice chat when not in a match.
