Description of the content update 19.40 – Loot Chickens are introduced. Epic is withdrawing a few other animals
One week after the normal update, it’s time for the content update 19.40.
This week will be devoted to chickens. Epic has announced what is called “Avian Ambush Week”. Among other things, special chickens have been added to the game. As we read in the official note:
In Avian Ambush Week, chickens are kings of the ecosystem. They’ve totally done away with sharks, wolves, frogs, and boars… and they’re coming after you next. Not only have they become more common, but they now fight back when attacked. Choosing peace with them instead? Hold one and it’ll peck at nearby opponents! You’ll also notice glowing chickens called Loot Chickens. Like crows (whom the chickens spared), these chickens carry loot!
Vaulted animals
In addition to dealing with chickens, Epic is clearly starting to clean Fortnite of unnecessary animals. Therefore, the following went to the vault:
- Boars
- Loot Sharks
- Wolves
- Frogs
Players can only wait for the 20.00 update, which will introduce a new season.
