Fortnite players discover a new instant-death glitch on the map Epic GamesFortnite players have been reporting bizarre deaths in cars as they drive round Chapter 2\u2019s map. Epic Games have responded, but it\u2019s not yet clear how close to a patch they are. Any battle royale game of Fortnite\u2019s size is bound to impacted by a bug or two from time to time. Generally, the game\u2019s developers have done a good job of keeping issues to a minimum, but there is so much content to keep an eye on. One set of bugs, though, that have had more life than others are instant death glitches. Back in Chapter 1 we saw players randomly killed when exploring the greenery around Tilted Towers, and Chapter 2\u2019s version of the instant-death glitch seems to relate to being in a car around the Holly Hedges area of the map. On November 20, one Redditor posted their issue, explaining that they have been randomly dying while driving around the Holly Hedges area of the map. Attached was a screenshot showing the player finishing 41st after an untimely (and very random) death. While not garnering too much attention, the post appeared to relate to an issue other users have been having too, making an instant death-spot the likely cause. Thankfully, Epic themselves were on hand to provide an update, explaining that they are aware of the issue and are trying to root out a cause and patch. \u201cThanks for flagging this, u\/Mablemon!\u201d one dev replied. \u201cOur QA team has been investigating cases like this.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
