Fortnite’s New Update on Sept. 11 Released as a Follow-Up to v37.20 as Version 1.000.194
Epic Games has released a new Fortnite update on September 11 on all platforms, and this is after yesterday’s big v37.20 update that ushered in new items and gameplay changes.
For console gamers, this should show up as Fortnite update 1.000.194, and while this doesn’t bring in any new content, expect fixes to be applied for some (not all) issues.
Fortnite’s Unannounced Patch on Sept. 11 Brings the Game to Version 1.000.194
So far, Epic Games has not said anything about the patch, outside of confirming a few issues:
- We are investigating an issue in UEFN and Fortnite Creative with Standard Input Consumption on the Input Trigger device. Once a player’s input is consumed by the Input Trigger, it will continue to be consumed regardless of the settings.
- We’re investigating an issue where the Egg-Cellent Observations Story Questline remains locked even after completing the previous Welcome to the Infestation Questline.
The Egg-Cellent Observations Story Questline issue is said to be fixed in the “next game update,” which means this patch should have done the trick.
For the list of known issues being looked at by the developers, read on (via the official Fortnite Trello board).
