What’s New in Fortnite 50v50 Battle Royale
In this second iteration of Fortnite 50v50, each team gets its own bus that approaches the map from the opposite direction as the opposing team’s bus, with yours outlined in blue and the enemy’s in red. From the very start, the mini-map depicts the final storm circle as well as dotted “battle lines” between the teams to indicate where you’re most likely to run into enemy players.
You’re given 10 minutes to rush around and loot like mad while the storm closes in, five minutes to duke it out, and then a final five minutes of battle as the storm shrinks completely. Supply drops fall every two minutes (only in the final storm circle) and arrive in batches of three to six.
A number of additional changes have also arrived with the Fortnite v3.5.2 content update, including the introduction of the light machine gun and some tweaks to item spawns, resource gathering, ammo, and more. To even further sweeten the deal, Fortnite players can enjoy double XP from Thursday, April 19 through Sunday, April 22.
