Revive your teammates and more with Fortnite’s v8.30 update

Epic Games has published the patch notes for today’s v8.30 Fortnite: Battle Royale update, and revealed all the changes that came with it.

Epic has announced that a new event called Buccaneer’s Bounty has been added to the game. It appears to be a new event with challenges related to Limited Time Modes, and Epic says players can “test your skills in a fresh LTM every single day and collect your very own treasure in the form of in-game rewards by completing free Challenges.”

Players will see new Limited Time Modes from April 10 to 15, and they can complete certain challenges to unlock exclusive rewards of the event. For some reason unknown so far, drop rates of Treasure Maps have been increased during this event.

Reboot Vans have officially been implemented in Fortnite: Battle Royale. They’re an environmental item that’s located in major named locations and can be used to resurrect allies in your squad who have been eliminated from a match. Players have to grab their allies’ Reboot Card in 90 seconds and take them to a van to make them respawn on top of it.

Players who respawn have all their inventory replaced with one common Pistol, 36 bullets, and 100 wood.

Gamplay changes were a few, like an adjustment in the Infantry Rifle’s falloff damage and making the Glider Redeploy item use a consumable slot, like Traps, instead of a standard inventory slot, and Epic will now enforce the resolution and field of view changes it announced a few days ago, and players will only be able to play in competitive modes using the 16:9 resolution.
