Fortnite V10.10 Content Updates – Junk Rifts and Glitched Consumables
Epic Games just released their patch notes for the V10.10 content updates introducing the Junk Rift.
Yesterday we caught wind of a new product being featured in their V10.10 content update by the daily news feed. An announcement for the date and time was posted later that day.
Note: This update requires zero downtime and content will go live at 12pm UTC
The patch notes for todays updates have been released, which includes details on the new Junk Rifts. Glitched Consumables have also been added to the game which we will cover further down this post.
WHAT’S NEW?
Junk Rift
Heads up! You can now deal with opponents by dropping heavy things on them. With the power of the Rift, summon anchors, cars, and more to fall from the sky.
Glitched Consumables
They say you are what you consume, but these consumables don’t even know what they are. A Rift Beacon has exploded, creating forageable items that keep turning into other forageable items — they’re glitched!
