Fortnite Patch Adds Lunar New Year Content

Fortnite Patch Adds Lunar New Year Content

A new patch has gone live for Fortnite after a period of downtime, bringing the game up to version 2.5.0. The primary theme of the patch is the Lunar New Year-themed content, but the update also brings a new grenade, bugfixes, and 4K support for the Xbox One X.

New Lunar New Year heroes have been added, which come with four new kits. The kits include: Berserker, a close combat soldier with War Cry and Shockwave, Thunderstrike, a Ninja character that causes stun and related damage bonuses, Riot Control, a constructor that uses DECOY and Plasma Pulse, and finally Flash, an Outlander that uses Phase Shift to run away and cause stun.

Thematic Shrines have been added to maps, which net a player treasure when discovered. The Spring It On! event has also started, in which players can unlock legendary soldier Love Trooper Jonesy, three legendary Dragon weapons, a new legendary melee defender, Firecracker tickets, V-Bucks, and Spring It On! gold.
