Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 Update Now Live and Here’s What’s New
From Zero to Hero
The objective is simple enough: put your powers to the test against the dreaded Mask Maker Daigo and his minions. And you know, the other 99 players in the match. Here’s where the day needs saving:
New POIs
Supernova Academy – Square one for hero training and hub for the extraordinarily gifted, Supernova Academy is the best place to study how to settle the score with supervillains.
Utopia City – Standing as a shining beacon of hope, life is (or was) but a dream against the sleek and serene horizon of Utopia City. Here you’ll find ultra-polished office parks, neatly manicured landscaping, and plenty of loot to fight over.
Demon’s Domain – Danger is in the air at Mask Maker Daigo’s citadel, Demon’s Domain, where Daigo is plotting to orchestrate a hostile takeover of the academy and Utopia City. His blighted stronghold is the perfect place to refine your technique and practice your supernatural powers!
Rise through the Hero Ranks
So you wanna be a hero? You’ll need to earn your stripes first! Every time you perform a heroic deed in each match, you’ll progress towards raising your Hero Rank. All players will start each match with C rank, and can rise through the ranks of B, A, S, and S+. Your Hero Rank is shared among members in your party. Here are some heroic deeds that’ll help you:
- Eliminating enemy players
- Surviving Storm phases
- Taking a Sprite to a Shrine
- Eliminating henchmen
Every time you rank up, you’ll gain 100 Effective Health. You’ll then gain access to a Hero Cache chock-full of powerful loot:
Rank C Hero Cache (accessible right away!)
- Uncommon-rarity weapon
- Uncommon-rarity consumable
- Possibly a Boon!
Rank B Hero Cache
- Rare-rarity weapon
- Rare-rarity consumable
- High chance of a Boon
- Hero Item (more on these later!)
Rank A Hero Cache
- Epic-rarity weapon
- Epic-rarity consumable
- Guaranteed Boon
- Hero Item
Rank S Hero Cache
- Legendary-rarity weapon
- Legendary-rarity consumable
- Guaranteed Boon
- Hero Item
Defy the Odds with Hero Items
- Myst Gauntlets – Morgan Myst’s items fire a cone of damaging shadow energy in front of you. Hero Items aren’t tied to Outfits — they’re loot you can find in Hero Caches and elsewhere around the Island.
- Killswitch Revolvers: Dual pistols that allow for some serious action-movie shenanigans. Dodge to evade incoming fire and activate Hangtime in air to fire back with better accuracy.
- Tracking Visor: A high-tech visor that allows for scanning the battlefield, pinging nearby foes, and showing enemy footprints.
- Bass Boost: Creates a wave of sound that destroys structures, damages opponents, and bounces back anyone it comes in contact with. Its secondary fire launches you into the air!
- Surf Cube (coming later this Season): A Cube-matter surf board that’ll get you where you’re going in a jiff.
- Storm Beast’s Pom Poms (coming later this Season): Transforms you into a rampaging Storm Beast with high-damage attacks and a leaping, highly-disruptive Storm Slam ability.
- Myst Form (coming later this Season) Briefly transforms you into an invulnerable flock of shadowy ravens that can maneuver a short distance.
- Fuses together with Myst Gauntlets to become Ascended Myst, which has higher damage and longer-lasting invulnerability.
Make a Breakthrough at the Tech Lab
If you’re looking for Hero Items, head to the Academy Tech Lab at Supernova Academy. There, you’ll find rooms accessible based on your Hero Rank, containing Hero Items. You’ll also find goods available for purchase with Bars. More Academy Tech Labs will open around the map later this Season!
The Goodest of Boys
There’s a lot more power at your disposal outside of Hero Items. Toss out a Krypto Treat, and Superman’s furry canine companion will dive bomb from the cosmos to retrieve it, dealing serious damage to anyone or anything nearby!
Extracurricular Equipment
There’s also Robin’s Grapnel Gun, a dependable sidekick all on its own. Closing significant distances quickly, you’ll find it has a lot more reach than your typical Grappler. Works great when you’re trying to get out of the Storm, or just want to make a dramatic superhero landing!
Being a hero doesn’t always mean taking the high ground. The Spire Rifle is a new LMG with a large magazine size that does increased damage to structures! With this on the field, sometimes it’s good to lay low.
Developed by tenured professors at the Supernova Academy, the Hyperburst Pistol unloads rapid three-round bursts, while the high-precision Deadeye DMR will crack the shields of rivals from afar.
Just because they could doesn’t mean they should. Highly confidential weapons fit for a fever dream, these Unstable Exotics are available exclusively from Rank S Hero Caches and Academy Tech Labs:
- Unstable Yoink Shotgun: Whoever it hits with the first shot from a full clip, they’ll be yoinked towards you!
- Unstable Voltage Burst Pistol: The first and final shots from each clip produce a shockwave effect at the impact point.
- Unstable Frostfire Shotgun: On a successfully landed shot, it’ll cycle between giving you a Pepper effect or the target a slowdown effect.
Bolster Your Abilities with Boons
Every Boon needs a hero. Find new Boons in Chests around the Island or buy them at Academy Tech Labs. This Season, your Boons will grow in power as your Hero Rank increases.
- Storm Caller Boon: Replenishes Shield while in the Storm, with the amount replenished going up with each Hero Rank. Gives Storm Forecast at Rank S.
- Speed Healer Boon: Sprint while using healing items and gain Slap afterwards, with the duration of Slap increasing with each Hero Rank. Gain Slap immediately when using a healing item at Rank S.
- Combat Acrobat Boon: Parkour (mantling, etc.) partially reloads your equipped weapon, and the amount reloaded goes up with each Hero Rank. Reloads all your weapons at Rank S.
- Heightened Senses Boon: Players who attack you are marked, and the duration they’re marked increases with each Hero Rank. Its cooldown is lowered at Rank S.
Sprites, the Best Sidekicks
The Dash Sprite and Superman Sprite have replaced the Air and Water Sprites on the map. Like a smol elemental genie, the Dash Sprite grants three Dash charges over time to anyone standing in its area of effect. Meanwhile, the Superman Sprite lays waste to everything in front of it with its righteous laser beam gaze — it will melt through any fort with a smile on its face.
Bad Guys and Losing, Name a Better Combo
Daigo the Mask Maker has returned from the spirit realm wholly corrupted by dark magic, growing in power as he drains the Island using his Spires. You’ll want to be well-looted before challenging him at Demon’s Domain.
Take out Daigo and you’ll get the Mythic Enhanced Spire Rifle and the Infernal Defenses Medallion, which increases reload speed and regenerates Shield every second, up to 50 Shield. Just remember — a Medallion doesn’t mask you! Medallions make you visible on opponents’ mini-map, and the more Medallions you have, the more precise the radius of your exact location.
Daigo’s lieutenant, Kor, can be found where Shogun X once stood. She jumps around quickly, putting distance between herself and players so she can rattle off a shot with her powerful Deadeye DMR. (Which stings something fierce!) Defeat Kor and you’ll be rewarded with the Mythic Kor’s Deadeye DMR and the Shrouded Striker Medallion, which gives invisibility when you sprint jump. It also makes the sprint jump send you farther, faster, and higher.
