Today’s the day. The long-awaited Chapter 4 of Fortnite is here. During yesterday’s event, players were able to get a tease of some of the skins that were arriving and even the new map. However, there were some things that we didn’t see and have arrived today. Some of them are the new Augments. This is something new that hasn’t been part of Fortnite before. Augments are items that enhance some of your abilities during the match. These can give you some gliding time even from low heights and even some health regeneration. To make the Augments fair, they are not something you can load before the match. Instead, playing the match will give you some of them. This guide will tell you how to activate an Augment in Fortnite Chapter 4.
How to get Augments in Fortnite Chapter 4
Before knowing how to activate them, let’s see how to get the new Augments. These new buffs can be treated as perks. Over the course of the match, you will be getting some Augments, the longer you survive, the more chances you’ll get to get new of these perks. You don’t have to do anything else other than play the game. If you do, you will get an option of two Augments. They are always random, but you can re-roll to get a new set.

If you are happy with your Augments, all you have to do is select ‘Activate’ on the Augment selection screen. This will give you the passive buff of your choice. Also, the longer you survive, the more Augments you’ll be able to get, letting you experiment with your loadout, which is a great thing in normal and competitive matches. These are all the Augments in Fortnite Chapter 4 so far:
