Epic Games has fired a heart-shaped arrow at Fortnite’s Battle Royale mode, offering up a rose-scented box of treats in preparation for Valentine’s Day next week.

Fortnite update 2.4.2 offers up a number of extras for PS4, PC, and Xbox One players, including a Crossbow that allows you to put old-fashioned stealth tactics to good use when hunting your quarry. What’s more, its arrows come in unlimited supply and the weapon is available in both Rare and Epic flavours. 

If that wasn’t enough to get you weak at the knees, there’s also a number of Valentine’s Day-themed skins seeking for your affection. 

Save the World isn’t quite ready to join the love shack just yet though, with the Valentine’s Day festivities not kicking off until next week, where you’ll see a brand new quest line and heroes rock up to the party. 

Outside of this there’s the usual dose of bug fixes and other tweaks to take note of, so be sure to have a butcher’s at the official Fortnite update 2.4.2 patch notes for more info.
