Found at the oasis near Paradise Palms, the Pandora Rift Zone is based on the planet of the same name from Borderlands, with players gaining Shield when they don\u2019t engage in combat and go four seconds without taking any damage. The event will also feature theme Challenges that will offer free rewards, and Psycho and Claptrap cosmetic items. The Fortnite x Mayhem event kicks off today, and will run until September 10.

The B.R.U.T.E.\u2019s map icon will remain visible to all players after players board one. The icon will follow the vehicle as it moves. This is to increase awareness of a B.R.U.T.E.\u2019s presence and location to all players in the match. – – The B.R.U.T.E. changes below were implemented between August 22-23.

Previous beacons have completely overhauled the area they appeared in, with Neo Tilted turning into Tilted Town and the soccer field getting a massive crater. It still remains a mystery as to what the new location will be, so we\u2019ll just have to wait for the update to see what happens, but there\u2019s a good chance that we could see one of the old points of interest return in its place. The return of Moisty Mire? Moisty Mire was where the desert location of Fortnite currently lies and going with the theme of the season, this is how it could make a return. A new location called Moisty Palms has been hinted at which would be a mash-up of Paradise Palms and Moisty Mire, so it\u2019s really the best of both worlds. New Shield Bubble item The in-game news section updated and revealed the Shield Bubble will also be arriving with this update. \u201cThis is one bubble that\u2019s not easy to burst. Shield yourself from projectiles with this protective dome,\u201c its description states, which doesn\u2019t leave too much to the imagination. From the sounds of things, the Shield Bubble could end up being a counter to the BRUTE mech as the shield will protect you from projectiles. The mech is able to let off a flurry of rockets so having a quick way to defend yourself will be key to turning the tides of the fight. Fortnite patch 10.20 release time The Fortnite Twitter account revealed the patch will be going live on August 27 with downtime starting at 4 AM EST \/1 AM PDT\/9 AM BST, and 10 AM CEST.
