A massive new Fortnite update is on the way, and it’s bringing some huge changes to the game! Early patch notes for v37.30 have been leaked, and they reveal a ton of new content that players will definitely want to get their hands on, from a new mythic to a new weapon.

The new update is set to drop this Thursday, September 17, which is rather unusual. Initially, the update was supposed to come out on Tuesday, but Epic Games postponed it. Fortunately, the wait is almost over, so let’s take a look at everything waiting for us!

What to expect in the new Fortnite update

One of the biggest additions is a new Megazord mythic! One player on the island will be able to transform into the Megazord and use it to take down enemies. This new mythic will be similar to the Superman transformation from the last season, which was a massive hit. Epic has already revealed a gameplay video of this new feature, making the community excited ahead of its release.

The update will also bring a new weapon to the game, the Blade Blaster. This energy pistol from Power Rangers is a lightweight hip cannon that allows for quick-tap firing or powerful, charged-up bursts. It’s a versatile weapon that will be a great addition to the loot pool.

On top of the new weapon, players can also expect a lot of new cosmetics, including a Lord Zedd skin and Sonic’s shoes. We may also get an early look at the upcoming October Crew Pack and see everything that will be included in it.

The new update will also bring a new game mode called Party Crashers, which brings proximity chat. The new mode will be a great addition to the game, and creators will get access to it right after the update goes live. The mode will be available to everyone on Friday, just one day after the update.

Finally, the upcoming Fortnite update may bring teasers for the Fortnitemares event, which should come out in mid-October. Fortnite’s birthday is also around the corner, and Epic will likely add a new event on Thursday.
