Today’s Fortnite update adds Crossbow and new Jam Tracks

Epic Games released a smaller content update for Fortnite today. The update was enabled on Tuesday at 9 AM Eastern Time, and since it’s smaller, it requires no download or downtime. Unfortunately, there are no changes for Chapter 6 – Season 2, as the update added content for the OG mode, as well as Fortnite Festival.

In this article, we will reveal more details about today’s Fortnite update and everything that it brought.

What did today’s Fortnite update bring?

The latest content update for the popular video game brought back the Crossbow to the OG mode. This weapon was originally released during Chapter 1 – Season 2, so adding it back makes sense. The weapon is available in Rare (Blue) and Epic (Purple) rarities and can be found on the floor, as well as in chests and supply drops.

Here are the detailed stats of the weapon.

Stat/Rarity	Rare	Epic
Damage	85	89
Magazine Size	5	5
Fire Rate	0.33	0.33
Reload Time	2.25	2.14
Structure Damage	1	1

Furthermore, Epic Games adjusted Impulse Grenades. This item was previously available only in chests and was added as floor loot with today’s update.

Today’s update also added new Jam Tracks. These tracks are not available right away, as Epic will release them to the Item Shop on Thursday.

• Paramore – Ain’t It Fun
• Paramore – Still Into You

The next Fortnite update is scheduled for Tuesday, March 25. This will be the second major update of Chapter 6 – Season 2 and will add new content for every game mode, including Battle Royale. Since the upcoming update will be big, it will require a download, and the downtime will likely last for at least two hours.
