Fortnite Update 4.56 | Patch Notes 34.00
Crime Pays: Heists, Banks & A True Outlaw!
The island is shaking up with crime waves – bank jobs, armored truck takeovers, and even train heists are all in play now! The infamous crime boss Fletcher Kane has made lawlessness the new way of life – and you’re about to be a part of it. Loot his armored vehicles, rob his mines, or get your hands on the valuable medallions to strike fear into your enemies.
Hot New Spots on the Map
The island has been upgraded with some shady hotspots perfect for causing chaos:
- Crime City – The ultimate criminal hub with sketchy hideouts like the Hostile Hotel and the Wise Guys Bookstore.
- Outlaw Oasis – A high-end getaway where crooks kick back after pulling off big scores.
- Shiny Shafts – Fletcher Kane’s goldmine. If you want the riches, you better be ready for a fight.
- Lonewolf Lair – Fletcher’s heavily guarded mansion. Step inside if you dare – but be ready for a showdown!
Public Enemy #1: Fletcher Kane & His Mythic Weapons
Fletcher Kane doesn’t play fair – he shows up when you least expect it! But if you manage to take him down, you’ll score big: Mythic Double Down Pistols and the Unstoppable Medallion, which boosts sprint speed and lets you smash enemies while running. But watch out – holding a medallion makes you visible on the mini-map, turning you into a walking target!
Dill Bits Take Over!
Forget about Bars – Big Dill’s Dill Bits are the new hot currency in town! Collected from vaults and heists, these digital dollars don’t carry over between matches, so spend them fast at Black Markets. Looking for legendary loot? Black Markets have Mythic weapons, rare power-ups, and heist-ready Boons that make your next score even bigger.
Gold Rush: Speed, Power & More
Looking for a quick boost? Swimming in gold-infused water or mining Gold Veins grants you the Gold Rush effect, which increases your speed, pickaxe swing rate, and damage output. More gold, more power – simple as that!
Hit the Big Leagues with New Weapons & Gadgets
Fortnite’s arsenal is getting a major expansion this season:
- Collateral Damage AR – A powerhouse assault rifle made for quick eliminations.
- Falcon Eye Sniper – Spot and take out enemies from a distance.
- Outlaw Shotgun – Arriving in v34.10, this close-range weapon packs a serious punch.
- Pump & Dump Combo – Rock a shotgun in one hand and an SMG in the other for ultimate versatility.
- The Kneecapper – A melee weapon that reduces sprint energy cost and increases jump height.
Explosive Heists: New Vault Busting Tools
Vaults are locked tight, but now you’ve got options:
- Thermite Explosives – The only way to blast vaults open, now hidden around the map.
- Plasma Burst Laser – Shreds through structures (and vaults) in seconds.
- Rocket Drill – Coming in v34.10, perfect for quick entry jobs.
Big Dill & The Tasty Bois: Music, Mischief & Mayhem
Big Dill, Fortnite’s newest rapping pickle, is taking over. His crew, The Tasty Bois, just dropped the “Runamok” track, available as a Jam Track in the Battle Pass. He’s not just making music – he’s running heists, launching Dill Bits, and stirring up chaos all over the island!
Mortal Kombat Collab & Shogun X’s New Reward
It’s not just the outlaws running wild – Sub-Zero from Mortal Kombat has arrived, bringing new skins and abilities. Plus, defeating Shogun X now grants the Super Shield Medallion, which spawns a Shield Bubble Jr. when using healing items.
LAWLESS Battle Pass: Get Your Outlaw Look!
This season’s Battle Pass is stacked with notorious new outfits:
- Cassidy Quinn – Ready for action from the get-go.
- Joss – A chemist with a knack for chaos.
- Fletcher Kane – The crime boss himself.
- Valentina – High-class thief with a sense of style.
- Big Dill – The one and only Tasty Boi.
- Keisha Cross – Queen of the road.
- Sub-Zero (MK3) – The legendary cryomancer.
And making a golden comeback, Outlaw Midas is unlocking in March, available through Battle Pass Quests!
