Yes, that seems to be the TV show Punk’d from over a decade ago. Aside from that, there seems to be a countdown of sorts added as well.

So the lobby got updated, and im ”ALMOST” sure that they added something of a countdown. Could be wrong… lets see when the servers are back up.
Other than that, it seems nothing substantial has been added for the update, which is kind of expected given this is a maintenance patch. Another Fortnite dataminer, also shared that they weren’t any new skins of the sort using a script.
