Good news, Switch gamers! Nintendo has announced a new Nintendo Direct livestream set for June 21, running for roughly 40 minutes as usual and explicitly featuring new information about Pikmin 4. The livestream will begin airing tomorrow at 7am PT/10am ET/10pm HKT.

The last Nintendo Direct took place on February 8, notably showing off new Tears of the Kingdom gameplay, as well as a new Pikmin 4 trailer along with its release date announcement. Pikmin 4 drops on the Switch on July 21, so a more detailed gameplay overview can be expected at tomorrow’s Nintendo Direct along with pre-order information.

As per the press release, Nintendo will be focusing on games releasing in 2023, so it’s likely the upcoming Risk of Rain remake (slated for release this year) will have some presence at the event, though this is merely conjecture on our part. As usual, fans can tune into tomorrow’s Nintendo Direct at Nintendo’s Twitch channel instead of YouTube should they desire. Stay tuned here at MP1st for our coverage of the event.

UPDATE HIGHLIGHTS

ONCE IN A BLUE MOON

The Blue Ridge Caravan is back and needs your help with its expanding business! Our Once in a Blue Moon update introduces two new Cryptids, Public Events, Side Quests, Rewards, a Daily Ops Mutation, and more.

NEW PUBLIC EVENTS

Vinny Costa, head of operations for the Blue Ridge Caravan Company is impatient with the members of the caravan, believing they’re not pulling their own weight and contributing enough. Work with the caravan members to get them back up to speed and earn some sweet Blue Ridge Caravan-themed items as a reward!

BEASTS OF BURDEN

fter a trade deal goes wrong, Luca Costa finds himself in need of some help. A group of local Cultists has stolen his Brahmin and cargo of makeshift explosives. His Uncle Vinny will not be happy if he catches wind of it. The problem is, he’s too injured to get his supplies himself!

Guided by Luca through a two-way radio, you’ll need to infiltrate the Cultist’s den, lay down explosives, and reclaim his pack Brahmin! Be extra careful not to disturb the local wildlife, however, as Cultists have recently noticed strange rumblings in the woods nearby.

SAFE AND SOUND

Blue Ridge has renovated the Middle Mountain Cabins to be their latest and greatest Brahmin pitstop, but they just can’t seem to keep the local critters at bay. The Repeller Speaker system they use to repel the creatures and keep their Brahmin safe has been damaged. To retake the pitstop and create a safe haven for their Brahmin to rest, they will need your help! Clear out the creatures, defend the Repeller, and the Blue Ridge Caravan will reward you handsomely for your assistance!

COSTA BUSINESS DAILY QUESTS

Resident grouch and taskmaster, Vinny Costa, hasn’t been happy with the performance of his employees lately, and he’d be happy to throw some caps at anyone willing to solve the problem. Players can learn all about what has the caravanners’ boots stuck in the mud, and collect some unique rewards along the way, in this series of one-off Daily Quests. Unlike other Dailies, players will only be able to complete this series of 7 quests once, but each has a unique Blue Ridge-themed reward, ranging from C.A.M.P. items to outfits.

UNMASKING THE MYTH

Longtime players that have completed content from all over 76’s history may find a special side quest waiting for them after completing all of the Costa Business quests…

NEW CRYPTIDS!

Cryptozoologists rejoice! Our two new Public Events introduce The Blue Devil and Ogua, two Cryptids based in real West Virginian folk lore.

THE BLUE DEVIL

Based on the real-life West Virginian Cryptid, this massive dog-like creature will test your wits! Its terrifying howl will send your character into a panicked mad dash for the Vault!

OGUA

Also known in real life as the Monongahela River Monster, this reclusive creature will retreat into its shell to shield itself from incoming damage, be sure to time your attacks carefully!

NEW REWARDS

Braving battle against these new Cryptids and Public Events is not without reward! Complete these events to collect a host of new items, from Cryptid plushies to outfits, C.A.M.P. items, weapon skins, and more!

SEASON 13: SHOOT FOR THE STARS!

Who can resist the allure of the Hollywood sign? Grab a bag of popcorn and settle in, this new Season will bring some of the iconic outfits, props, and more from the silver screen right to your C.A.M.P!

SEASON 13 REWARDS

This season is packed with Hollywood-themed items to glam up your dwelling! From a Jewelry Stand that displays your backpack flairs, to movie projectors, pyrotechnics, Monster Costume, and everything in between! You’ll be a dazzling star in no time!

New C.A.M.P. Items: Create your own movie set with items like the Western Movie Set Façade, Director’s chair, Studio Camera, and more!

New Armor Paints: Become the daredevil you were meant to be with our various Stuntman Armor paints including the Stuntman Marine, Stuntman Secret Service, and many more!

New Ally: Joey Bello! This wise-cracking self-proclaimed “Funny man” has lived a life full of laughter and loss and is ready to bring the laughter part to your C.A.M.P! Joey loves a good bubblegum wrapper joke and is quick to diffuse any tense situation with humor. This class act is sure to leave you in stitches… even if the cut is his doing.

DAILY OPS

Look out, cadets! A new dangerous mutation has been added to the Daily Ops.

NEW MUTATION: DANGER CLOUD

Enemies have seeds embedded in their skin, periodically they will radiate a spore cloud around them that damages the player, reducing their AP regen and max AP. Plan your routes and load-outs carefully to withstand these infested beings.

DESIGN CHANGES AND IMPROVEMENTS

We’ve made a number of gameplay design changes and improvements, from removing Fuel costs for Expeditions to adding in more detailed weapon and mod descriptions so you can better cater your build for your unique playstyle.

EXPEDITIONS

Following player feedback, we have made adjustments to Expeditions and their associated Daily Fuel Quests.

Removed Ultracite Battery Charge: Players are no longer required to complete Fuel Quests to launch an Expedition as a Team Leader with a fully charged Ultracite Battery. Instead, players can start an Expedition at any time and still be eligible to receive the maximum Mission Rewards.

ADDITIONAL DESIGN CHANGES AND IMPROVEMENTS

Contextual Ammo: Contextual Ammo has been adjusted to more closely match ammo counts for Daily Ops and Expeditions, better accommodate some weapons which consume a lot of ammo, and provide more ammo for Non-Expeditions/Daily Ops (“open world”) in certain level ranges where enemies are proportionally hardier and more difficult to kill.

Fixed an issue for Main Quest “Heaven and Earth” where Seyka could get stuck behind a door, blocking progression.

theHunter: Call of the Wild Update 1.76 Patch Notes | theHunter: Call of the Wild Outback Update Patch Notes | theHunter: COTW June 20 Patch Notes:

HIGHLIGHTS

Prepare for an unforgettable challenge!

In this update, the majestic Fallow Deer has been added to our list of Great Ones, bringing some spice to your hunting experience.

Enter in style with the Australian Bushwear outfit

A new set of clothes inspired by Australian outback style is now available to purchase for in-game currency.

More customization!

With the addition of customizable tents and ground blinds, all customization options previously unlocked to use on weapons may now be applied to them too! (Note here that customization can be changed while the item is in your inventory, and not while it’s placed in the world.)

FULL PATCH NOTES

You’re in for an update brimming with new features, quality of life improvements, and bug fixes. Let’s dive into the full patch notes.

Additional New Features

Animals now have a chance to create an interactive audio clue when fleeing.
Interacting with any Audio Clue will now display an estimated distance to the target.
Springbok, European Bison, and Plains Bison have gotten new TruRACs horn designs.
Alligators have gotten more aggressive with the new addition of Saltwater Crocodiles. They will attack more often and are more clever about how and when they will get close and personal with you, so be careful out there!
Alligators and Crocodiles will now float to the surface for retrieval when they die underwater. Lost a kill to the murky swamp water in the past? Never again!
The Harvest Screen has been redesigned.
Players may now tag their favorite Customization Options to make them appear in a favorites menu for easy access.
You may now choose which version of your Trophy Lodge to load into in multiplayer games. You may no longer switch to different lodges after loading into a Multiplayer game. This is to prevent the Trophy Lodge from failing to sync between players.

Adjustments & Improvements

GAMEPLAY

The XP requirement values for various weapons, ammunition, and gear items have been revised to make them less confusing and to make some basic equipment more accessible to new players.
.223 ammunition should be more effective for all .223-compatible weapons.
The Red Deer, Feral Goat, and Fallow Deer have had their furs updated to improve their look.
Alligators in Mississippi should spend more time on land.
Mexican Bobcats will now be out drinking into the wee hours of the morning.
To reflect changes to the updated species, the Springbok, European Bison, Plains Bison, Alligators, and Mexican Bobcat populations will be reset.

Players wishing for a more immersive experience can now disable the Control Hints in the UI by turning them off in Interface Settings.
If the “Hide All Clues” hotkey is activated, a Control Hint will appear showing which key you press to show them again.
The Main Menu has been straightened out and is no longer canted at a jaunty angle.
Animal Harvests in the Hunting Profile have been reorganized to put Great Ones at the top of the list.
Closing the customization menu with unsaved changes will now prompt you to save your changes before leaving.

VISUALS

Added new shadow rendering improvements- Screen Space Contact Shadows. These are on by default on newer Consoles. PC players may activate them by turning on the option in the Video Settings menu.
Shotgun animations were improved.

Bug Fixes

GAMEPLAY

Capercaillie will now react properly to being shot while performing certain aggressive animations
Placed Turkey Decoys will no longer vanish when you leave a reserve.
The Keen Eye skill will correctly be triggered while away from the lookout towers.
The Muscle Memory perk will now work as it should.
We’ve fixed a sight calibration issue with the Hudzik .50 Caplock.
The Grelck Drilling Rifle should no longer leave you unable to fire when switching from Shotgun to Rifle mode.
An issue was resolved where revolvers could become jammed when hip firing with manual chambering enabled.
- Developer’s Note: We made them act like double-action revolvers when hip-firing which improved their stability.
The reward weapons from Parque Fernando will now unlock correctly when the missions are completed.
The “Ultimate Memento” Mission on Medved-Taiga can be completed again.
We’ve fixed an issue with the mission “Mucking it up for Science” on Vurhonga Savannah, where it was difficult to find one of the objectives.
We’ve addressed an issue in the “Cats and Cradles” mission on New England Mountains that caused objectives to be displayed out of order.
Cans shot with rifles and pistols during the “Target Practice” mission in Rancho Del Arroyo should fall over now.

We moved the default Keybind for “Hide All Clues” to “U”.
- Developer’s Note: This action was unintentionally set to “C”. Make sure to reset your keybinds to default to get this change.
The default key for saving a loadout could also be bound to scrolling through items. This has been fixed and saving a loadout is now only bound to “R”.
The keybind for activating the Rangefinder bow sight was the same as the keybind for spotting. The bow sight is now “R” when aiming with a bow, or Y / Triangle on a controller.
We’ve fixed an issue where any items in your inventory, that were not saved in your current loadout, were not kept in the active inventory between gameplay sessions.
The Weapon Wheel UI will no longer display confusing “TXT” strings in place of weapon descriptions when quitting the game with a Scoped Weapon in your inventory if it wasn’t saved to your loadout.
Option to “save” a loadout will now work correctly when the select loadout menu is open.
We’ve fixed a UI issue that could happen when changing scopes in the weapon wheel while reloading.
Weapon Customizations from the Hunter Power Pack have been renamed to better indicate their origin.
Customizations applied to the Caversham Steward 12G will no longer also be applied to other, similar 12G shotguns.
Animal harvests are now being recorded correctly in the hunting profile.
Green Wing Teal will no longer display the wrong icon when viewed in the trophy lodge.
We’ve solved an issue with the on-screen button prompt missing when attempting to pet the dog in a Trophy Lodge. Because they deserve all your pets.
When editing a trophy placement, only the base of the chosen trophy will be highlighted to make selection easier.
“Points of Interest” icons from birds spotted with the Tag skill will now properly disappear from the map.
Motion blur now correctly applies to the sights while using a scope.
The map icon for the Parque Fernando reserve has been accurately placed on the world map.
Entering invalid login info while signing into your Apex account or signing in after using “Forgot Password” will no longer cause the game to become unresponsive.
When purchasing the New England Mountains Veteran Cosmetic Pack on the Epic Game Store, you will now properly unlock the coresponding cosmetics.
We’ve fixed an issue where the “Thank you for your purchase” message would remain stuck on the Trophy Lodge menu if a player bought Trophy Lodge DLC from there.
Trophies of animals with no medal will no longer show as a Bronze medal in the trophy lodge UI.
Owned DLC will no longer show up as recommended after purchase.
Corrected a typo in the codex entry for “Serpent Players Playhouse”.
On the Windows Store PC version, we’ve fixed an issue that caused UI Keybinds to save incorrectly.
- Developer’s Note: As a result, Windows Store players will have their keybinds reset to default after the update.
If you started a new game after progressing part of the Hunt Club beta event, you can now properly claim your rewards.
The “Scarecrow” achievement description has been updated to specify that the player must scare 1000 unique animals.
- Developer’s Note: The “animals scared” statistic in the codex shows the number of times the player has scared an animal, regardless of whether they’ve scared them before, which is why these numbers don’t necessarily match up.

AUDIO

Gray Wolves, Red Deer, Red Foxes, and Feral Goats should have audible calls again.
Reduced the occurrence of the “zone transition” audio to prevent it from spamming when players move back and forth across a zone border.
Audio should now be in sync with the animation when another player fires a rifle from the hip.

VISUALS

Various animals should no longer slide around and look odd in Multiplayer. We’ve taken away their skates.
An issue that would cause a Moose to look odd when starting to move from idle has been resolved.
We’ve fixed an issue with Female Alligator animations.
Animation issues that could sometimes happen when animals were stopping have been addressed.
Existing Geese models have been adjusted to make their necks more closely resemble actual geese.
Cinnamon Teal models have been fixed.
We’ve fixed some issues with the Springbok skeleton when viewed in X-ray on the harvest screen.
We’ve corrected a minor visual problem with the Melanistic Mallard Models.
We’ve fixed a clipping issue with one of the Bobwhite Quail trophy poses.
A Trophy Pose for Mouflons has been added to fix a bug where their horns weren’t being shown accurately.
We’ve fixed an issue that could cause the dog’s head to spin around… we’re sorry you had to see that.
The dog will not longer become invisible while performing “play” or “pet” interactions with certain graphics settings.
Skin tones on the lower arms are now properly matched while wearing the Africa Outfit.
Wearing the Africa Outfit will no longer give certain player characters a bald spot.
We’ve fixed an issue with half-transparent “phantom trees” appearing on Te Awaroa at low graphics complexity settings.
We’ve addressed an issue with Fog Rendering that made it look weirdly pixelated, particularly when rendering with thin vegetation.
We’ve fixed an issue on PC where the cursor would not stay locked inside the game window during gameplay if the player had multiple monitors and the game was being displayed on a monitor other than the primary one.
The TAA Sharpness setting now applies properly even when FSR is disabled. With this change things should look smoother than ever!
FXAA and TAA Anti-Aliasing settings have improved to reduce ghosting – yet another fix which will smooth out the graphics.
Players will no longer awkwardly slide around while crawling and looking through the binoculars in 3rd person.
Backpacks have gotten several improvements to look better in 3rd person on ATV’s and on other players.
Landscapers were sent to Hirschfelden to clean up trees near the bridge at the shooting range. They even took a trip to Parque Fernando to remove a tree blocking targets at the archery range!
Tritium Sights no longer become hidden when swapping ammo after equipping one.
The Zarza .308, Grelck Drilling Rifle, and Crossbow look better when viewed in 3rd person.
Mission objects should disappear more smoothly after being picked up. [waves and disappears]

MULTIPLAYER

On Steam, we’ve fixed an issue that allowed players to “join” their friends’ games even if they were set to “private”.
- Developer’s Note: This also disables the ability for players to send invites using the SHIFT+TAB overlay in private games. To account for this, a new “Invites” button has been added to the in-game multiplayer menu that allows the host to see their Steam friends list and send invites from there.

PERFORMANCE

We’ve fixed a couple of crashes connected to using the dog in multiplayer.
Auto-saving frequency has been reduced.
- Developer’s Note: We want to strike a balance between ensuring that the game always saves when important things happen, but not saving so often that it’s writing data non-stop. With these improvements, it is possible that some minor data (like statistics) will become inaccurate after suddenly closing the game (e.g. using ALT+F4 or Task Manager). Always use the in-game “quit to main menu” option when leaving the game to ensure that it saves and shuts down gracefully.
On the Windows Store PC version, we’ve fixed a bug that causes the game to occasionally crash during startup.

CONSOLE

Players who had fulfilled the Trophies requirements on PlayStation, but were unable to unlock them during the Revontuli Coast update, should now be able to claim them.
Water waves should now be working on PlayStation 5.
On PlayStation, the game should no longer get stuck attempting to login if the PlayStation Network is unreachable, but the console is online.
We’ve fixed an issue for console players where the camera could not be tilted in certain situations.

A New Hunting Destination

Discover breathtaking landscapes and hunt iconic animal species such as the Saltwater Crocodile 🐊 and Eastern Gray Kangaroo 🦘 as you explore this magical new hunting destination down under.

▶ KEY FEATURES

◈ Explore the Australian outback, subtropical bushlands, and tropical rainforests, and experience the natural wonder of its stunning wilderness.

◈ Hunt some of Australia’s most iconic fauna, including the Magpie Goose, Banteng, Saltwater Crocodile, Eastern Gray Kangaroo, and a new Great One.

◈ Make new friends and work together to protect the region’s beautiful but fragile ecosystem through side and story missions focused on conservation, cooperation, and community.

◈ Expand your hunting arsenal with the new Zagan Varminter .22-250 Bolt-Action Rifle. Light and comfortable to shoot, it’s the perfect companion for any hunting trip.

Layton Lake Cosmetic Pack

Released as one of the first maps for the game, Layton Lake continues to be a popular destination among hunters from all around the world!

Don’t forget, the Layton Lake Cosmetic Pack and the Emerald Gold Coast Australia DLC are both premium DLCs (read: paid), though the Outback Update is something all players should be able to enjoy.

Fortnite Update 3.94 Patch Notes for v25.10 and Datamined Content Listed This June 20

by Alex Co

5:08 am in News

Fortnite update 3.94 is now out, and this is to to bring the game’s v25.10 patch into the game. Players can expect changes to Save the World’s daily reward system, as well as your usual slate of new content and changes in Battle Royale. Check out the Fortnite v25.10 patch notes and the datamined content for June 20 below.

Fortnite Update 3.94 Patch Notes Patch Notes | Fortnite Update v25.10 Patch Notes:

Update: Epic Games has released the new content and changes for Battle Royale.

YOU “KINET” SEE ME

Embrace stealth by equipping Cloak Gauntlets, made with reflective Kinetic Ore. Cloak Gauntlets allow you to blend near-seamlessly with your surroundings, and can be obtained from the ground and Chests. You’ll be covered in Kinetic Ore for a limited time before the gauntlets enter a cooldown, but because the gauntlets possess unlimited charges, you can cloak yourself again and again!

Though you’re unable to attack while using Cloak Gauntlets to cover yourself, you can end your cover early by unequipping the gauntlets or swapping to another item in your inventory.

WILDGUARD RELIK’S CLOAK GAUNTLETS

Wildguard Relik has emerged in the jungle. Defeat this boss and Wildguard Relik’s Cloak Gauntlets will be yours for the taking! With this Mythic version of the gauntlets, you’ll be able to cover yourself in reflective Kinetic Ore longer, with a shorter cooldown.

RELIK’S MK-ALPHA ASSAULT RIFLE

The MK-Alpha Assault Rifle — a fully automatic assault rifle with an attached red-dot sight — debuted last week. And now a Mythic version is on the Island: upon defeat, not only will Wildguard Relik drop his Cloak Gauntlets, but he’ll also drop Relik’s MK-Alpha Assault Rifle! Pick up this Mythic weapon to pack a whole lot of power.

MAKE THE HEAT OF BATTLE HOTTER

As if the jungle climate wasn’t already hot, the Flare Gun has been unvaulted! Use the Flare Gun to start a spreading fire on enemies’ structures. Don’t wanna face the heat of somebody else’s Flare Gun? Cover yourself in mud to avoid being marked!

You can find Flare Guns from the ground as well as Chests.

SHOCKWAVE GRENADES IN ZERO BUILD

Shockwave Grenades have been unvaulted in Zero Build, findable from the ground and Chests.

REALITY: AUGMENTED AND WILDER

Two new Reality Augments make their debut in v25.10! Augment your reality with:

MUD WARRIOR

While in mud or covered in it, you’ll regenerate Health and Shield.

SMG EXTENDED MAG

Your SMGs will have increased magazine size.

Also, the Tracker’s Armory Reality Augment is unvaulted. Activate this Reality Augment to get a Flare Gun instantly (and of course a Shadow Tracker!).

Note: This Season, as new Reality Augments debut and previous ones are unvaulted, they will be immediately unlocked.

MISCELLANEOUS UPDATES

Chickens and Sky Jellies have been vaulted.
The population of wolves and that of boars have been reduced.
The frequency of fishing spots has been reduced.

RANK RESET

As announced previously in our recent Ranked blog post, we have reset everyone’s ranks for Battle Royale and Zero Build in v25.10 as part of Ranked Season Zero. This is a planned test of resetting ranks before the launch of Chapter 4 Season 4 Ranked.

Your Ranked Urgent Quest completion in Season Zero has not been reset. However, the appearance of your Burn Bright Emote may be updated to reflect your new Battle Royale or Zero Build rank. Your ranks at the time of the reset helped determine your v25.10 ranks, just as would happen in a turnover between Ranked Seasons.

CHAPTER 4 SEASON 3 SUPER LEVEL STYLES

Look stylish, look scorchin’. In the Bonus Rewards section of the Battle Pass tab, bonus Styles for Battle Royale Chapter 4 Season 3 Battle Pass rewards have been available for players who progress past Level 100. With v25.10, Chapter 4 Season 3’s Super Level Styles have been added as bonus rewards!

The Super Level Styles this Season? Progress past Level 125 during Chapter 4 Season 3 and start unlocking the Wildscorch, Confetti Claw, and Regal Hunter Styles for the Mariposa, Rian, Lorenzo, Relik, and Trace Outfits.

COMPETITIVE NOTES

Please note that Wildguard Relik, Wildguard Relik’s Cloak Gauntlets, and Relik’s MK-Alpha Assault Rifle are currently not included in tournaments.

Also, ICYMI: In Battle Royale Chapter 4 Season 3, your rank will, among other factors, be an eligibility requirement for Epic-hosted tournaments. This includes tournaments for cosmetic prizes like FNCS Community Cups, as well as tournaments for cash prizes such as the Console Champions Cup. You can find the specific rank requirement for some of the tournaments happening this Season below or in the official rules for that tournament.

Tournament	Rank Requirement
FNCS Community Cup	Bronze I in Ranked Battle Royale
Duos Fill Cup	Silver I in Ranked Battle Royale
Zero Build Duos Fill Cup	Silver I in Ranked Zero Build
Solo Victory Cash Cup	Gold I in Ranked Battle Royale
Zero Build Duos Victory Cash Cup	Gold I in Ranked Zero Build
Duos Cash Cup	Gold I in Ranked Battle Royale
Console Champions Cup	Platinum I in Ranked Battle Royale
FNCS Major 3	Platinum I in Ranked Battle Royale

~~The official patch notes aren’t out yet, but here are the changes to Save the World’s rewards as well as the datamined info:~~

CHANGES COMING TO FORTNITE SAVE THE WORLD’S DAILY REWARD SYSTEM IN V25.10:

DAILY QUESTS: V-BUCKS, X-RAY TICKETS, AND GOLD

In v25.10, we’ll be taking the amount of V-Bucks and Tickets that can be earned in the current system, dividing it up to get a daily value, and adding that amount to the existing Daily Quest rewards. As a result, each Daily Quest will now give 30 additional X-Ray Tickets upon completion, plus 30 additional V-Bucks for Founders.

If you complete one Daily Quest each time you log in, you will be able to earn in-game currency at the same rate as before this change, and since you can bank up to three Daily Quests players who log in less frequently can now complete those to make up for missing a couple of days.

Daily Login Rewards also include a small allotment of Gold, so we’ll be increasing the Gold awarded by Daily Quests by 10 Gold per quest. Over time, the amount of Gold awarded by Daily Quests should add up to several times more than what is offered from Daily Login Rewards.

To accommodate this Gold change, we’ll be increasing the quantity of resources available for sale in the Weekly Store, as we know our more experienced players would appreciate more things to spend their Gold on.

DAILY FOUNDERS LLAMAS

The Founders Packs sold before July 2020 included Upgrade Llamas and Founders Llamas that were granted once each day through the Daily Login Rewards screen. If any of these remain unused on your account, they’ll all be granted to you immediately the next time you log into Save the World.

MISSION ALERTS

Daily Login Rewards are also a source of Schematics, Heroes, Defenders, Survivors, and Evolution Materials. To compensate for this source being removed, we’ll be making some improvements in v25.10 to the items awarded by Mini-Boss Mission Alerts.

For Mini-Boss Mission Alerts, we’ll be increasing the average rarity of the reward items, and significantly upping the quantity of rewards by adding a chance for Mini-Boss Mission Alerts to grant a second bonus reward of the same type and rarity. Alerts that grant Mini-Llamas will also have a chance to grant a higher quantity of Mini-Llamas, or to replace the Mini-Llama with an Upgrade Llama.

EARLY CAMPAIGN QUESTS

The early part of the Daily Login Reward track has a lot of items to help new players get a jump-start on their collections of Schematics and Heroes. While the changes to Mission Alerts should make up for this loss, we’ve also decided to add some Rare-, Epic-, and Legendary-rarity items to the Campaign Quests in Stonewood and Plankerton.

ENDURANCE DAILY QUESTS

These Quests were added so we could award Battle Royale Battle Pass XP for your first Endurance Mission each day, but they lack any Save the World-specific rewards. This’ll be addressed in v25.10 — they will start giving Evolution Materials, Perk Materials, and Gold upon completion (in addition to the Battle Pass XP they already grant).

For more on the Save the World daily reward changes, head on over here.

Fortnite Update 2.94 and v25.10 Datemine:

The Fortnite x Nike Airphoria collab will feature Nike designed skins, cosmetics, and special rewards for .Swoosh members. According to Nike’s Creative Director.
