Fortnite update 1.000.104 is out this June 9 for the v25.00 patch, and brings "The Wilds" content alongside fixes. Check out what's new in the patch notes and the datamined content.
Update: Full patch notes have been added.
RIDE A RAPTOR!
Raptors are running wild in the jungle – take command of these jurassic creatures by jumping on top of them. Unleash your arsenal and leap to new heights as you ride.
What if you see a raptor egg instead? Nurture it and it’ll automatically be your raptor when it hatches!
GO WILD WITH NEW WEAPONS
THERMAL DMR
Battle in the jungle, see how a jungle animal sees. While looking through the scope of the Thermal DMR, turn on thermal vision to more easily detect your enemies.
FLAPJACK RIFLE
Make heads turn as you best enemies and structures with the Flapjack Rifle. Heads won't be the only thing turning — this new weapon features a spinning magazine! (You can find the Mythic version of this weapon from Vaults requiring Keycards.)
KINETIC BOOMERANG
Throw the Kinetic Boomerang to hit enemies in its flight path… AND its return path. Miss your target? Recall the boomerang early to trigger a small explosion and try again!
CYBERTRON CANNON
There's going wild, then there's having a blast. Take up a Cybertron Cannon on the Island to launch a powerful, quick, and explosive projectile.
WILDWASP JAR
A hostile insect species known as Wildwasps inhabit the jungle, preferring to swarm around certain plants. Gather them in a jar to throw at enemies! (The Wildwasps set their sights on you? Jump in water or cover yourself in mud to get them off your tail.)
GO BACK IN TIME WITH UNVAULTED WEAPONS
DRUM SHOTGUN
There's a Mythic version too! Find the Mythic version from a POI rifting in.
COMBAT SMG
BE MEGA PREPARED
There's the new weapons, there's the unvaulted weapons, but don't forget about these Chapter 4 Season 2 carryovers:
Havoc Pump Shotgun
Maven Auto Shotgun
Havoc Suppressed Assault Rifle
Red-Eye Assault Rifle
Submachine Gun
Tactical Pistol
Heavy Sniper Rifle
Chug Cannon (Exotic weapon …and technically not a weapon)
Heisted Breacher Shotgun (Exotic weapon)
Heisted Accelerant Shotgun (Exotic weapon)
Heisted Run ‘N’ Gun SMG (Exotic weapon)
Shadow Tracker (Exotic weapon, this time available from Exotic Holo-Chests and Characters)
SLIDE FOR STEALTH
A jungle climate means mud, so master the terrain: slide in the mud for more speed than regular sliding and gain camouflage in the process.
GRIND VINES TO VICTORY
Take an adrenaline-pumping ride on grind vines, being able to use weapons at the same time.
CONTEND FROM THE CANOPIES
You don't need the ground to gain the high ground. Ascend to the jungle's canopies and fire high from above! When you get back on the ground, find some mud for a clean (but also not really clean) getaway.
FIGHT WITH FLORA
Use the power of new, dangerous vegetation to your advantage. Shoot a Bomb Flower to create an explosion, or shoot a Stink Flower to unleash toxic gas on nearby enemies. Need to heal up? Swing your Pickaxe at the helpful Slurp Plants.
There's also a flower for mobility. Run into Hop Flowers to bounce around the jungle without worrying about fall damage!
ADAPT TO THE JUNGLE WITH NEW REALITY AUGMENTS
PRIMAL COMPANION
Gain thermal vision and regenerate Health while riding animals.
WILDWASP WEAPONRY
Receive some Wildwasp Jars, and gain an additional one with every elimination.
SPRINT LINES
Gain a Slap effect upon using grind vines, grind rails, ziplines, or Ascenders.
SHELL SLIDE
Gain Shotgun shells while sliding.
SWIFT SHOTGUN RELOAD
Your Shotguns will reload faster.
RECKLESS RIFLE RELOAD
Your Assault Rifles will reload significantly faster when the magazine is empty.
MEDIUM AMMO ACQUIRED
Instantly gain medium ammo, then gain more when you open containers.
LET THE WILD TIMES ROLL
In addition to new Reality Augments, roll returning ones:
Traversal Warrior (formerly known as Rail Warrior, now works on grind vines, ziplines, and Ascenders in addition to grind rails)
Aquatic Warrior
Light Fingers
First Assault
Bloodhound
Steady Hands
SMG Sign Off
Exotic Grab Bag
Soaring Sprints
Mythic Munition
Keymaster
Rarity Check
Shotgun Striker
WORK WILD
Bounty Boards are back in the form of Job Boards! Upon interacting with a Job Board, you’ll be given a choice of three jobs, including a bounty. Complete jobs for Bars!
LOOK WILDLY GOOD
Unlock timeless looks with Chapter 4 Season 3's Battle Pass Outfits. Upon purchasing the Chapter 4 Season 3 Battle Pass, you’ll auto-unlock the future-facing Era. Progress through the Battle Pass to unlock Outfits like rock ranger 🎸 Rian and Autobot leader Optimus Prime. Later in the Season, wild-time-haver Purradise Meowscles will become available to unlock in the Battle Pass!
A look at all the Chapter 4 Season 3 Battle Pass Outfits:

FORTNITE BATTLE ROYALE CHAPTER 4 SEASON 3 COMPETITIVE DETAILS
Competitors,
Welcome to Battle Royale Chapter 4 Season 3 and a new competitive update. In Chapter 4 Season 3, competitive Fortnite will include FNCS Major 3, FNCS Last Chance Major, and a shake-up with new formats of Zero Build, Cash Cups, PlayStation Cups, and more Victory Cash Cups!
Keep reading to discover all the details of what awaits in Chapter 4 Season 3 for competitive Fortnite.
RANKED AND COMPETITIVE
Ranked Season Zero is underway. Season Zero lasts until the end of Battle Royale Chapter 4 Season 3. We are continuing to use this time to make necessary adjustments such as improving queue times, making sure matchmaking puts you against similarly-ranked opponents, and more. For more information, please see our "A Fortnite Ranked Update for Season Zero" blog post.
In Battle Royale Chapter 4 Season 3, your rank will, among other factors, be an eligibility requirement for Epic-hosted tournaments. This includes tournaments for cosmetic prizes like FNCS Community Cups, as well as tournaments for cash prizes such as Console Champions Cup. You can find the specific rank requirement for some of the tournaments happening this Season below or in the official rules for that tournament.
RANK RESET
As part of Season Zero, we plan on resetting everyone's rank. This reset will be a test run of resetting ranks, as we would do during a Seasonal turnover before we enter Chapter 4 Season 4 Ranked. This also gives us an opportunity to continue iterating on our systems at a fast pace. We’re targeting v25.10 for the reset, and we’ll keep you updated as we get closer.
FNCS MAJOR 3
Find your Duos partner and prepare for FNCS Major 3 to begin on July 20, 2023!
For each weekly FNCS Major 3 competition, the top 200 highest points-earning duos from Round 1 will advance to that week's Round 2 session. Following the conclusion of the Round 2 session, the top 50 highest points-earning duos from each region will advance to that week's FNCS Major 3 Weekly Finals.
Each duo that participates in the furthest round for a given weekly FNCS Major 3 competition will be awarded Series Points based on their results from that week. The top 50 duos (in other words, the 50 duos who’ve earned the highest cumulative Series Points on the Series Leaderboard across Weeks 1, 2, and 3) will qualify for the FNCS Major 3 Grand Finals. There will not be a Surge Week during FNCS Major 3.

SCORING UPDATES

In addition to earning points for final match placement and earned eliminations, players will be able to score bonus points by completing the following mid-match objectives in tournaments where these objectives are offered:
We are keeping a close eye on these mid-match objectives and may make adjustments to how many points are awarded for successfully completing them throughout the season.
In future seasons we hope to continue to introduce new ways to earn tournament points through mid-match objectives.

COMPETITIVE BAN POLICY CHANGE
In Chapter 4 Season 3, we’ve made changes to our policy on competitive bans and their impact on FNCS eligibility. Previously, players who received a competitive ban of 14 days or longer were ineligible to participate in both the then-current FNCS season and the next FNCS season. Under our new policy, players who receive a competitive ban of 14 days or longer will only be ineligible to participate in either the then-current FNCS event (e.g., an FNCS Major) or the next FNCS event, if there isn't an FNCS event being held at the time of that 14-day competitive ban.
This new policy takes effect with the start of Chapter 4 Season 3, which means anyone actioned under the prior policy during Chapter 4 Season 2 has a fresh start going into FNCS Major 3 and will be eligible to participate as long as they meet all other eligibility requirements.
COMPETITIVE FORTNITE FAQ
Have additional questions about competitive Fortnite? Check out our FAQ below or see our rules library.
WHERE CAN I FIND THE TOURNAMENT SCHEDULE?
You can find the tournament schedule on our website at fortnite.com/competitive under "Calendar." You can also find your local region's start times in the "Compete" tab in-game.
CAN I COMPETE IN MULTIPLE REGIONS THIS SEASON?
You will only be able to compete in one region's competitive offerings this Season. Once a player participates in a region in any competitive event, they will be locked to that region for any subsequent sessions of that event.
CAN I SWITCH TEAMMATES BETWEEN FNCS WEEKS?
Yes, you can swap teammates between FNCS weeks as long as all participating players are eligible for FNCS. Please note: If you do swap teammates between FNCS weeks, you will not be able to transfer FNCS Series Points that were earned with your previous team over to your new team.
CAN I SWAP TO DIFFERENT ACCOUNTS DURING TOURNAMENTS?
No. Attempting to use an alternate account during the same FNCS session may result in disqualification.
CAN I SWAP TO DIFFERENT DEVICES DURING FNCS?
No. Once you participate in an FNCS event (e.g., an FNCS Major) on an eligible device, you will need to use the same kind of device for the rest of that FNCS event. Attempting to use a different device (for example: switching consoles, switching PCs, or switching from console to PC or vice versa) on the same account at any point during an FNCS event may result in disqualification.
CAN MULTIPLE PLAYERS USE THE SAME DEVICE DURING FNCS?
No. Attempting to use multiple accounts on the same device to compete in FNCS may result in disqualification.
WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO REPORT A SUSPECTED CHEATER IN TOURNAMENTS?
Please report any suspicious activity in our official Tournament Support Discord and through the in-game reporting tools. You can also use the Discord Server to report any tournament issues or bugs experienced during tournament gameplay.
