Won't be a problem if balloons are in this mode.

Edit: Actually balloons themselves might be the problem, lol. Just float up and chill.

Actually balloons are disabled in that mode, but there are rift-to-go's that are very useful if you encounter a skybase.

It's off b/c it was scheduled to run Tues-Thurs morning, and the new build was released later than we expected. A new mode will be flipping on in just a few minutes, and we'll bring Catch! back around next week since it didn't get it's fair share of playtime.

Hello Competitive Fortnite Fans,

The original Secret Skirmish announcement teased “additional operations” to be held in the evenings after the primary Battle Royale competitions each day.

The initial plan was to hold a non-Battle Royale competition each night after the Solos and Duos matches to illustrate more competitive options in the Fortnite competitive ecosystem. Unfortunately, after testing on-site, we ran into technical issues that prevent us from holding these bonus competitions with the confidence needed to produce the show. We are removing the secret evening “operations” from the original schedule, and will continue with the Solos and Duos competition as planned.

The $25,000 p...

Due to a last minute issue we've discovered within the v7.40 release, the update will be delayed.

We’ll give you an exact time when we lock it down.

We are aware of an issue with account merge that prevents players who merge a PS4 account into a primary account from logging in on PS4. We are currently working on a fix.

Sure, just need to tap use on the way down...

Will previous LTM wins be moved into the new category or will it only effect wins post patch? For example the high stakes LTM

Correct, as long as it wasn't a Large Team LTM, any previous wins will be moved into the LTM tab

Mobile and Switch stats in the v7.40 update!

To clear up any confusion about LTM stats. Previously, all LTM stats were bundled into Solo/Duo/Squads, depending on what type of LTM was played.

Moving forward, there will be 1 singular LTM page that will track all LTM stats. However, it doesn't distinguish the stats between which LTM you played. This means if you got 1 elimination in Solid Gold and 2 eliminations in Close Encounters then 3 total eliminations will appear in the LTM tab, but it won't specify where those eliminations were earned.

A simple way to look at it is that if previously you had 100 wins but 90 of those wins were in LTMs then you'll see 90 wins in LTMs and your other wins spread out among Solo/Duo/Squads, depending on where you earned that Victory Royale.

This excludes Large Team LTMs, we do not and have never tracked stats in Large Team LTMs.

For those asking whether or not all of their previously played stats will appear, I have one word for you.

Yes! 😎👍

There may be a few minor edge cases in which a small portion of players may be missing a small amount of their past stats, but the vast majority should be populating. We've been keeping track ^ _ ^
