New Fortnite: Battle Royale Game Files Reveal Quad Launcher, Fresh Grenade, and Balloons Discovered by Dataminers

Exciting New Leak Reveals Potentially Game-Changing Items Coming to Fortnite

Alongside the addition of the High Stakes event and leaked skins in today’s v5.4 update for Fortnite: Battle Royale, dataminers have discovered more exciting information.

Two new items, the Spike Arena Grenade and Balloons, may be introduced to the game in the near future. Additionally, the Quad Launcher, a popular weapon from Save the World PVE mode, could be making its way to Battle Royale within the next week, as confirmed by TwoEpicBuddies on Twitter.

The Spike Arena Grenade appears to be an exciting addition. Its description suggests that players can use it to create their own Bounce and Spike Trap arena.

The Balloons, on the other hand, provide a unique getaway option during fights. Players can rapidly inflate them to break their fall or reach new heights.

In contrast, the Quad Launcher is not a new weapon, as it already exists in Save the World mode. This legendary weapon shoots rockets that explode into a pool of fire, damaging and stunning players caught inside.

These new items have the potential to significantly alter gameplay strategies. Every update introduces changes that affect how players achieve Victory Royales, and the addition of a new grenade, consumable item, and weapon will likely be no different.
