Fortnite Update 1.000.083 Patch Notes | Fortnite Update v22.40 Patch Notes:
Update: Epic has released the official changelog for v22.40!
Here are some new patch details from the official website.
In the Fortnite Battle Royale v22.40 update, a new vehicle has driven to paradise: Rocket League’s Octane! When you’re not behind the wheel, launch into the air with the Grapple Glider or join a large team in the Big Battle LTM.
OCTANE’S NEWEST DESTINATION
In v22.10, the Octane vehicle from Rocket League boosted into Fortnite for creators to rev up their islands. Now, with v22.40, Octane has boosted into Battle Royale and Zero Build. This Battle Royale/Zero Build version is balanced for these modes, but it still has rocket boosters, supersonic speed, and the ability to jump, double jump, dodge, take flight, and drive on walls!
GLIDE TO SAFETY WITH THE GRAPPLE GLIDER
An enemy coming right at you? Or even worse, an enemy coming right at you while they’re in an Octane? Make a swift getaway with the Grapple Glider — pull yourself into the air by aiming at a hard surface, then deploy your Glider to land in safe territory.
You can find Grapple Gliders from the ground, Chests, Chrome Chests, and Supply Drops. They have limited charges, so it’s not a bad idea to save your Grapple Glider for emergencies!
HAVE A BIG TIME IN THE BIG BATTLE LTM
Look around you: it’s A LOT of players on your team. In the new Big Battle Limited Time Mode, you’re in a team of 40 facing another team of 40. The match begins with the Storm already circling the first zone, and you’ll see Uncommon-rarity items already in your loadout. The result? The action starts right away in this fast-paced, Zero Build LTM. To help you defeat the other team even faster, loot in Big Battle is Rare-rarity or higher.
LTM goes live at 10 AM ET on November 15.
EXPLORE THE BATTLE ROYALE ISLAND… OUTSIDE BATTLE ROYALE
In the v22.30 patch, the Battle Royale Island became a “starter island” for creating your own Battle Royale experience in it, or for just wandering around. You can also jump into an experience made by someone else! With this new way to explore the Battle Royale Island, we’ll be vaulting Battle Lab in v23.00.
USE/INTERACT IMPROVEMENT ON MOBILE
On mobile, we have completely removed the Interact icon (hand icon) from the Fire button. Specific “Use” actions will now be represented by their own icon, meaning that, for example, eating and drinking actions will have their own icon now.
COMPETITIVE NOTES
- Octane is not included in competitive playlists.
MAJOR BUG FIXES
- Fixed an issue in which some Outfits from previous Seasons’ Battle Passes were missing colors.
Full patch notes have not been released yet by Epic Games, but you can read the datamined content below.

Don't take this as a confirmation but there seems to be a storyline-related mode that we'll play from the lobby, *possibly* during Chapter 4's downtime!
