Fortnite v7.30 Content Update Patch Notes — Bottle Rockets, Foraged Campfires, and more




After a rousing week featuring an in-game concert over the weekend, Fortnite earned some goodwill in both the competitive and n00b communities. They’ll use it to add yet another barrage of rockets, or bottle rockets as they call them. The other key aspect to note is that boom boxes are vaulted, which is nice for those build battles that get ruined by a turd on the ground with a boom box.
