Fortnite update 26.00 is coming to PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PC and Android. The new Fortnite update will be available to download after the servers are taken offline for maintenance at 8am BST UK time. Matchmaking will be disabled shortly beforehand. Needless to say, a new season launches with a new Battle Pass, new points of interest, new weapons, vehicles and lots more.
The Battle Pass includes new skins such as Ahsoka Tano from Star Wars, as well as TikTok star Khaby Lame.
The other skins are named Nolan Chance, Piper Pace, Fish Thicc, Mae, Antonia and Kado Thorne.
New points of interest include Sanguine Suites, Eclipsed Estate and Relentless Retreat, which will launch alongside the sporty Nitro Fang car.
Based on the promotional material released by Epic Games, Zyg and Choppy’s Ray Gun will also return in the new season.
In addition to the new Battle Pass, Season 4 launches alongside a big new update. According to Epic Games, the download size will be bigger than usual
