The Fortnite 21.10 patch notes were released alongside the first major update in over two weeks. This patch brings with it an entirely new danger, and its name is the Imperial Army led by Darth Vader himself.
The Dark Lord of the Sith has arrived on the island, and he and his Stormtroopers will be an added challenge for those brave enough to face them. Vader and his team will spawn in a different location each match, and anyone who can defeat him will earn the right to hand over Darth Vader’s lightsaber. The red saber works like previous lightsaber weapons in Fortnite, only this time the wielder can throw it at an enemy like a boomerang for massive damage.
Imperial landing sites also have special Imperial chests, which contain, among other items, the return of the E-11 Blaster. These unique weapons will also be dropped by any Stormtrooper defeated in battle.
Fortnite patch 21.10 will also unlock Super Styles for skins in the battle pass for anyone who wants to level up to 200. Starting at level 140, players can earn alternate Platinum Rift, Lapis Slurp, and Auric Blaze styles for Adira, Evie, Malik , Sabina and Stormfarer.
The new patch will also make adjustments to the new reality seedlings, changing how many fruits will appear on trees depending on the rarity of the tree. Uncommon and Rare Fruits will remain at three each, but Epic Fruits will be reduced to two at a time, and Legendary Fruits will join Mythic with a single Fruit per harvest.
Finally, the audio preview feature is getting an overhaul in the Fortnite 21.10 patch, with the gauge range for “steps, chests, and vehicles” being reduced. The change was made in an effort to “better match the distance when that sound would be audible” and means that the source of those sounds will need to be closer to a player for the visuals to appear.
The Fortnite 21.10 patch isn’t the only big addition to the game this week, as Naruto Rivals – the next set of Naruto-themed skins – has been confirmed for release in the item shop on June 23.
