Fortnite is a game that is forever evolving. Many of its original audience have stopped playing, often raising questions about its continued success. But that is a testament to how Epic Games constantly adapts to reach new audiences.
The game is a revolving door in terms of items and gameplay changes. Fortnite update patch notes regularly. You must stay on top of these changes if you want the best chance of getting Victory Royales. This page will cover all the changes made across any new Fortnite patch notes.
As we see every year, Fortnitemares has once again returned. For many gamers, it is their favourite time of year. The map changes, classic weapons are back, and Halloween-themed skins take over the store. So, let’s jump into the changes made for these Fortnite patch notes.

We also see the return of a few favourites to go with the new items. These items are:
Again, the SAW theme continues with this interactive map-wide challenge. To complete the challenge, you must approach the monitor, and Jigsaw will challenge you to duel an enemy player who accepts from another monitor. The challenge puts an explosive Billy-inspired bear mask on you. Then, you or your team must eliminate the person you are duelling against before the time runs out. If you fail, the mask explodes, and you will be eliminated. Completing this challenge gives you loot and the unvaulted Witch Broom.
In these latest Fortnite update patch notes, we see the return of LTM Horde Rush. You will once again be able to drop with your team and complete quests as you take on wave after wave of monsters. Mod benches have been added to change it up and increase the difficulty.
During Fortnitemares, you will receive various free rewards for completing quests and earning XP. Here is a list of the rewards and what it takes to receive them:
With any event on Fortnite, new skins are available to purchase in the in-game store. Epic has made some great additions this year with some classic Halloween-themed skins:
