A storm is rolling into Fortnite next week, and it’s promising to be a doozy.
The zombie survival game is prepping its “Survive the Storm” update for August 29th, bringing a limited-time event for those who are willing to brave the elements. While active, players can jump into the titular mode to gather resources every day and hunker down at night when a nasty storm arrives. This isn’t your normal summer thunderclap, either; the storm can mutate zombies, giving them increased abilities and stats.
Those pitiful few who make it through the storms will be rewarded with new weapons, all with a “hydraulic” theme. The update will also add more defenders, heroes, performance improvements, and better art for Canny Valley Outpost.
