Epic Games has just rolled out a new update for Fortnite, and here’s the complete list of changes and fixes added with this patch. The title has been around since 2017 and is one of the committee’s most famous battle royale games. Like the previous ones, the latest version increases the gameplay experience, and the dev highly recommends installing it. The Fortnite 1.000.097 update patch notes are below.
Fortnite Update 1.000.097 Patch Notes
Like always, we know the game received a new update, but sadly we do not have the patch notes. Because the dev Epic Games has yet to release the patch notes and we’ll update this post as soon as the official patch notes arrive. But seems like it launched only for PS5 and fixes the low-resolution Forest Guardian problem.
- We’re aware that leaves and foliage in the Forest Guardian island experience appear low resolution on PlayStation 5. Creators – this issue also affects any masked materials in UEFN.
- We’re investigating a fix for this and will provide an update when it’s resolved.
Meanwhile, if you missed the previous version, named v24.00, you can check out its patch notes below.
The v24.00 update in Save the World brings Weeks 8 and 9 of Wargames: Meltdown and Double Trouble! v24.00 also includes an update to Homebase names, the Cram session mini-event, and a new Starter Pack.
WARGAMES WEEK 8:MELTDOWN – Fortnite Update 3.85 Patch Notes
Wargames’ Week 8 begins Thursday, March 15, 2023, at 8 PM ET. Your Storm Shield has gone critical and is emitting a growing radiation field. This radiation causes visibility issues and deals damage to players while in direct contact.
WARGAMES WEEK 9: DOUBLE TROUBLE
Week 9 of Wargames begins Thursday, March 22, 2023, at 8 PM ET. There are two indestructible Golden Smashers with cycling modifiers loose in your fort. If that doesn’t sound terrifying enough, their ill temperament switches between attacking Heroes and the fort.
HOMEBASE NAMING UPDATE
In the v24.00 update, we’ve removed Homebase names. We’re now consistently using your Epic display name across the game instead.
BATTLE PASS XP UPDATE
In the v24.00 update, we’ll be updating Battle Pass XP to the following:
- Quest XP has been reduced slightly.
- Mission XP (and the daily cap) have been increased.
- Combined the XP rate will be similar.
- XP for Wargames Dailies was changed so that only the first daily quest you do rewards XP.
TIME FOR A CRAM SESSION
Level up and evolve your favorite items during the Cram Session mini-event:
- For the duration of the event, Mini-Boss Mission Alerts will drop additional XP, Evolution Material, RE-Perk, or Perk-UP rewards.
- Adding four series of Quests, each of which has ten stages that grant increasingly better one-time rewards upon completion. (Hero/Schematic/Survivor XP, Evolution Materials, PERK-UP!s, or Gold).
