New Explosive Bow weapon coming to Fortnite With the item shop update on March 31 in Fortnite came an update to the \u2018Coming Soon\u2019 news section that revealed the Explosive Bow is on the way. Fortnite has released a very controversial update with v8.20 and it is looking for ways to win back the support of fans. This will start with the Explosive Bow, which is presumably coming with the next update. The Explosive Bow was leaked prior to the announcement so this isn\u2019t catching players totally by surprise. Fortnite has tried introducing a bow in the past with the Crossbow but that weapon was almost completely useless and it ended up being vaulted. The weapon was unvaulted for Valentine\u2019s Day in 2019 but outside of that, we haven\u2019t seen a bow weapon in Fortnite since then. The Explosive Bow has a chance to be an RPG in bow form. In the news section of Fortnite, it says \u201cArchery can be a blast!\u201d which might indicate the bow could be used to destroy structures and players alike. Animations + Sounds for the upcoming Explosive Bow! (already leaked these but now I combined them) pic.twitter.com\/EmzY2bgFdR \u2014 FortTory \u2013 Fortnite Leaks & News (@FortTory) March 31, 2019 FortTory, a well-known leaker in the Fortnite community, has revealed the animations and sounds for the upcoming bow. As mentioned before, these were already things people knew about but now FortTory has combined the things, giving players a better idea of what to expect. The next update will probably be coming with just new items as part of a content update. For those hoping for Epic Games to revert the patch, that will have to wait until the next main patch, but even then it probably won\u2019t be happening. Fortnite\u2019s v8.20 patch has been highly controversial as it removed health per kill in regular lobbies and introduced a ranked mode that features long queue times but does have the health and shield per elimination. It remains to be seen what will be done about the disgruntled playerbase going forward.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
