Fortnite V23.20 Patch Notes — Everything You Need To Know

The long-awaited Fortnite v23.20 patch notes finally arrive, and here’s everything you need to know about it!

Now that the long-awaited Fortnite update finally arrives today, players can dive in and start building.  It’s been over a month since V23.10 was released as a patch. It’s high time for something new.

Things to expect in the V23.20 patch

The previous update introduced the 2022 Christmas Winterfest event (along with the unvaulting of themed items), but what can we look forward to in the future? Moreover, Epic Games is enhancing the game’s mechanics and adding a new, extremely cool item with this update.

New Feature: Falcon Scout

In search of loot? You can now use the Falcon Scout, a new addition to Battle Royale with the Fortnite V23.20 update, to scout for and bring in faraway goodies. You can also use your flying buddy to mark enemies and unlock chests. The Falcon Scout is a powerful tool, but using it puts you in danger, so plan accordingly.

New Reality Augments

Here are the new reality augments from the Fortnite v23.20 patch notes:

• Peely’s Plunder: Receive a treasure map that will lead you to buried treasure.
• Shotgun Striker: Your Shotgun fire will give you Siphon upon hitting opponents.
• Rarity Check: Get Siphon upon elimination with Common and Uncommon weapons.
• Zero Chance: Temporarily gain the Zero Point dash ability each time you break an enemy’s Shield.
• Danger Hero: Briefly regenerate Health and gain movement speed when your Shield breaks.

New Update: Ride With Your Hired Character

You no longer need to stick to walking in order to keep a hired Character traveling with you; instead, they can ride as passengers in vehicles. You don’t have to leave Helsie hanging or dishonor Raptorian the Brave anymore!

Bug fixes in Fortnite V23.20

As stated in the patch notes, here are all the bug fixes for Fortnite V23.20.

New Updates on Fortnite Creative V23.20

As of the most recent patch release, the Shockwave Hammer, Falcon Scout, Guardian Shield, and Reboot Van all come from the Battle Royale mode of Fortnite and are now available in Fortnite Creative. However, this is not all that has been added.
