Fortnite update 23.10 patch notes
Winterfest 2022 is here!
One of the best events of the year, Winterfest, has returned for December 2022. During this event, there will be festive-themed skins in the shop, new challenges to complete, and even some map changes.
There will also be presents to open each day, with a bunch of skins and cosmetics to discover, so make sure you open them all before the event ends. We’ve got a guide to what’s inside each present here.
Take part in MrBeast’s Extreme Survival Challenge
The latest addition to the Icon Series collection is online creator and streamer MrBeast, who’s getting his own skin and matching cosmetics in the game starting December 14, 2022.
You’ll also be able to take part in MrBeast’s Extreme Survival Challenge on December 17, 2022, with the highest-scoring eligible player taking home a $1 million prize. More details are available here.
New Mythic weapons & Guardian Shield
During this update, two new Mythic weapons were added to the game’s files: Deku’s Smash, which is part of the upcoming My Hero Academia crossover, and The Ageless Champion’s Shockwave Hammer.
There’s also a Guardian Shield that blocks bullets and explosions and can even be thrown to give you cover at a distance. It’s unknown when these will go live in the game, but it should be soon.
Super Level Styles are now available
It might take you a while, but if you manage to complete this season’s Battle Pass you’ll be given the chance to unlock Super Level Styles for the Helsie, Selene, Ageless, Dusty, and Massai skins.
This time around, there are Elysian, Aeon, and Halcyon Styles for you to discover. They’re available to unlock now, but you’ll need to save up enough Battle Stars first…
