According to the official Fortnite 3.52 patch notes, the latest update added various changes for Battle Royale and Creative Mode. Apart from this, today’s Fortnite version 3.52 also includes fixes for Save The World.

Previously, a major Chapter 2 Season 2 update added Doctor Strange, new weapons, features, new LTM modes, map changes, and much more.

Unfortunately, players are still facing several issues with the game. Today’s Fortnite patch 3.52 will address a few of these issues.

Fortnite Update 3.52 Patch Notes – April 19, 2022

Battle Royale

NEW WEAPON: RANGER SHOTGUN

Wanna fight for Coney with extra confidence? The Ranger Shotgun has appeared on the Island, built for much longer range than most Shotguns. This burst Shotgun has one shot per reload. Because each shot deals serious damage, you won’t need to panic while reloading.

Find Ranger Shotguns on the ground, from certain vendors, and in Chests, Supply Drops, and sharks.

BARS TO MAKE A BREAK

The Resistance plans to supply the Boogie Bomb or Rift-To-Go — but needs help deciding which one. Both are tailored for escaping tricky situations. An enemy come out of nowhere? Throw a Boogie Bomb to trap them in a dance. In a losing struggle? Use a Rift-To-Go to create an emergency Rift.

Before one of these escape mechanisms is unvaulted, you’ll have the opportunity to try out both in the wild. Find Boogie Bombs and Rift-To-Gos scattered throughout the Island from Friday, April 22, at 8 AM ET to Monday, April 25, 2022, at 8 AM ET. Not too long after this trial period ends, you can vote for your favorite choice by contributing Bars at Funding Stations. The first item that reaches 100% Funded will swiftly enter the loot pool!

COVERT OPS QUESTS

Help The Origin complete a covert operation in Zero Build. You must finish both stages of each Quest before time runs out to receive the next Quest! Your first task begins April 22 at 9 AM ET.

The Origin’s agenda:

Quest 2: Begins April 26 at 9 AM ET and ends April 28 at 8:59 AM ET

Finished Quest 2 before April 28 at 8:59 AM ET? You’ll proceed to Quest 3!

Finished Quest 3 before April 30 at 8:59 AM ET? You’ll proceed to Quest 4!

NEW: VFX CREATOR

The new VFX Creator device provides Creators with a set of tools to make tweakable FX. Creators can select a sprite and apply a variety of parameters to it to create divergent effects.

OTHER FEATURE UPDATES

NEW: CAREER TRACKER

The new Career Tracker provides creators the ability to track more stats for players by adding these options to the Save Point Device. To enable the new Career Tracker, Creators will need to update to the Save Point Device and the scoreboard HUD.  A quick way of updating the scoreboard HUD is by cloning the scoreboard and changing it to Career. Once updated, players will be able to view career scores in the new Career Tab.
