New Content Update Adds Presents In Fortnite

Epic Games just released the first content update for Fortnite patch v7.10 and it brought with it a new item. It is just a content update, so players don’t need to download anything and head straight into the game. The new item is called “Presents” and it is a consumable item. Presents, like most of the other items and weapons, are found inside Chests and Supply Drops, and that’s the only way that you can obtain them. They are not scattered across the map like Chests and Ammo Boxes.

How Do Fortnite Presents Work?

Once you find a Present, you’ll have to toss it like other utility items, and it is kind of similar to Port-A-Fortress. Once thrown, a giant square-shaped Present will appear and you can break it down to enter it. Inside the present, you’ll find a powerful set of weapons and items. A Present guarantees a Legendary rarity item and it also contains some other resources.

Compared to Supply Drops, Presents are really easy to find and can quickly arm you with powerful weapons if you manage to find it early in a match. Also, the Presents can be placed in the Creative Mode as well. It should be noted that this is the first content update and Epic Games is planning on releasing two more content updates during the Holidays.

It’s currently the fifth day of “14 Days of Fortnite” event and today’s challenge is to fly through five golden rings, that have appeared all across the map, in the X-4 Stormwing Plane. Once you complete the challenge, you’ll be rewarded with a brand new cosmetic item. The item is called “Combat Wreath” and it is a Back Bling.

Lastly, Disco Domination and Sniper Shootout are today’s Limited Time Modes for 14 Days of Fortnite. It’s good that Disco Domination is back because the respawn feature of the mode really helps grind challenges. The Sniper Shootout is also a really good mode to practice aim with Sniper Rifles.
