Fortnite has today launched its March 29 update on all platforms, so here’s the full list of changes and fixes with this patch. Today’s update is small in terms of how many things are being added or changed, but the individual changes themselves are major considering they’re mainly weapon changes. In particular, a few brand-new weapons have made their way into the latest season, adding another layer to the weapons you can use. There’s also the Zero Build mode, which will be a permanent addition to the game and allow those of us who don’t like building to still enjoy the game. Without further adieu, here’s everything new with Fortnite in its March 29 update!
Fortnite March 29 Update Patch Notes
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.
Rock Vehicles With the Anvil Rocket Launcher
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.
B.A.R. – Bars for Assault Rifle
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!
Fortnite and the March 29 update are available on PC, PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, and mobile devices. For more information regarding this update, check out the official website.
