Fortnite players claim new update removes ability to drop Victory Crowns Epic GamesReportedly, Fortnite players are no longer able to remove Victory crowns following the release of a new update. Epic Games added Crowns to Fortnite in Chapter 3 Season 1, providing players with a way to flex their victories and gain bonus XP. The unique item can be earned by those who achieve a Victory Royale. Picking up someone else\u2019s dropped Crown constitutes another way for players to grab the golden-colored bragging right. Interestingly, anyone who possesses the item in a match becomes an easy target for their opponents. This explains why some people don\u2019t like having Crowns in their inventory, and a new update may have complicated matters in this regard. Players can no longer drop their Victory Crowns in Fortnite Addressing the Fortnite subreddit, a user named Known_Focus_1065 said they\u2019re no longer able to remove Crowns from their inventory. The player claims the issue likely arose following the release of Fortnite\u2019s patch on June 20. Whether or not this is a weird glitch or a purposeful decision on Epic\u2019s part is not yet known. Regardless of the why of it all, this particular revelation isn\u2019t sitting well with dedicated Fortnite users. Many people are upset that they\u2019ll no longer be able to drop Fortnite\u2019s Victory Crowns for friends and other players. Meanwhile, others don\u2019t like the idea of being forced to walk around with a target on their backs. One user lamented, \u201cHaving the crown is disadvantageous. I am slowly getting worse at close-range fights so I hide a lot. The crown flashes and gives you away.\u201d A similar comment reads, \u201cWe usually drop ours because they make you an easier target, but we haven\u2019t been winning anyway so it doesn\u2019t matter lmao.\u201d Mistake or not, here\u2019s to hoping Epic Games clears the air about Victory Crowns sooner rather than later.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
