De Fortnite patch van vandaag met versienummer 8.11 brengt een nieuw pistool naar de game. Het gaat hier om een piraten wapen met de naam ‘Flint Knock’.

Dit wapen is beschikbaar in common en uncommon en vind je in floor loot. Wanneer je er echter mee schiet zul je merken dat er gigantisch veel terugslag is, maar wanneer je de kogel in je vijand weet te krijgen, zal de schade groot zijn.

Je checkt de gehele changelog van de nieuwe patch hieronder, inclusief uitgebreide details over de nieuwe Flint Knock.
