Building is back in Fortnite, but there’s a mode without it too. New rocket launcher and more

Fortnite

Everything is officially known – building has come back to Fortnite.


A new content update has come to Fortnite that brings building back. As a result, Epic also released a mode that prevents this. Everyone can decide how they prefer to play.

Zero Build is a pure test of weapon, item, and traversal ability. Zero Build can be found in the Discover page as Solo, Duos, Trios, and Squads playlists. (Access the Discover page by clicking on the “CHANGE” button above “PLAY!” in the Lobby.) 

Without building, all players have the recharging Overshield as your first line of defense in Zero Build. Zip up Ascenders to access Blimps or use Mantling to get the high-ground over your opponents. Don’t forget to Sprint between cover on your way to a Victory Royale!

New rocket launcher

In addition to building, a new launcher has already been introduced into the game, the Anvil. Official Description:

There’s the Heavy Turret for taking on vehicles, so how about an anti-vehicle weapon you can carry? 

With the Anvil Rocket Launcher, look into its scope and lock onto your vehicle target. Once your target’s locked, fire a rocket that’ll go flying its way! Anvil Rocket Launchers can be found in regular and Rare Chests, in Seven Supply and IO Chests, in Supply Drops, and from sharks.

New vote

There is also a new weapon vote in the game that is to return.

Get ready for an unvault! The Resistance needs help deciding whether to assemble the MK-Seven Assault Rifle or Combat Assault Rifle. With the former, peer into the red-dot scope of an Assault Rifle capable at long range. With the latter, carry the Assault Rifle counterpart to the forceful, tight-bullet-spread Combat SMG. (Instead of staying at one strength, the Combat Assault Rifle’s recoil now ramps up to that strength.)

Before one of these Assault Rifles is unvaulted, you’ll have the opportunity to try out both in the wild! Find MK-Seven and Combat Assault Rifles scattered throughout the Island from Saturday, April 2, at 4 AM ET to Monday, April 4, 2022, at 11:59 PM ET. Not too long after this trial period ends, you can vote for your favorite choice by contributing Bars at Donation Boards. The first weapon that reaches 100% Funded will swiftly enter the loot pool!

Additionally:

  • The Anvil Rocket Launcher is not included in competitive playlists.
  • The MK-Seven Assault Rifle/Combat Assault Rifle trial period will not take place in competitive playlists.
