Augments are missed in Fortnite, but players are convinced they will never return Epic GamesFortnite players are beginning to lose all hope that Augments will finally make a comeback after Epic Games teased their return in Chapter 5 Season 1, and then scrapped them completely. The once beloved feature in Fortnite was introduced in the first season of Chapter 4, and was present in Battle Royale right up to the end, before the Season OG update vaulted them all. Augments shook up the meta by giving players a range of different enhancements during their matches. Augments have been a large part of why many hail Chapter 4 as one of the best Chapters in Fortnite\u2019s history. However, there has been a growing feeling that they will never come back, as one player asked \u201cDo y\u2019all remember these things?\u201d Despite some stating that the \u201cRNG of them really ruined their use,\u201d and others just simply \u201cdidn\u2019t like them at all,\u201d the overwhelming consensus between the playerbase was that they would welcome them back in a heartbeat. \u201cI miss them every match\u2026 The mobility in this chapter is very lackluster, and augments would\u2019ve filled in that gap,\u201d a player responded, as another stated: \u201cWe need them back, gave the game balance and felt more enjoyable.\u201d In response to the RNG issues, a player commented: \u201cTheir unpredictability made them fun. Sure some people got better augments than others, but I didn\u2019t mind.\u201d However, many simply echoed the thoughts of one: \u201cThis has been my all-time favorite Fortnite feature. It\u2019s such a shame that it\u2019s gone and that it will never come back.\u201d The belief has gone for the majority of players, as several blamed Epic: \u201cThey won\u2019t get added back\u2026 They were fun!\u201d Others theorized the reasons: \u201cEpic wants each Chapter to feel unique and independent from one another, so that\u2019s why Augments aren\u2019t in Chapter 5.\u201d Trusted Fortnite leakers did find that Augment files had been placed back into the game\u2019s files during Chapter 5, Season 1. Furthermore, Epic then featured them in a Milestone quest that season, stating it was \u201cComing soon,\u201d and they could even be seen in the Augments section of the in-game Quests tab. But, Augments never actually arrived and there have been no signs from Epic since that suggest they will return to Fortnite anytime soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
