Rumours have been circulating regarding what theme will garnish the latest segment of the world-famous battle royale series, with some suggesting it could be a war between IO and the Seven (via Top5Gaming).

Following the introduction of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson at the beginning of Chapter 3, gamers will also be hoping that general gameplay details will be amended, with Epic Games going off community feedback as usual.

Fortnite Update 20.00 Release Date

Developers Epic Games revealed the patch notes for this update on Tuesday 29th March 2022. This is when the update went live.

Patch Notes

All the patch notes have been gathered from the official Epic Games website. Here they are in full:

Battle Headstrong In Fortnite Zero Build

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.)

As a defense in the absence of builds, players have the recharging Overshield in Zero Build.

Anvil Rocket Launcher

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.

Assault Rifles

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!

Competitive Notes

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.
