Fortnite August 10 Update Patch Notes

Fortnite has launched a new update today (August 10) so here’s all that’s been changed and added with this patch. As this is just a hotfix and not a big update, you shouldn’t go in expecting anything too insane. Though with that being said, there is one substantial piece of content with the new Prop-ifier weapon. This tool lets you turn into various props, letting you potentially get the drop on unsuspecting players (and possibly a few kills). It’s a nice little change, but nothing too crazy. Without further adieu, here’s all that’s new with the August 10 update of Fortnite!

Fortnite August 10 Update Patch Notes

File on the Prop-ifier

When using a Prop-ifier, you’ll be presented with a holographic display of your Prop options. Choose the Prop you want to be, then activate! As a Prop, you’ll be able to move around — but to be extra sneaky — you can choose to settle in place. You won’t be totally immune to a watchful eye, though. When settled, you’ll briefly glitch every now and then, kind of like old TV static. (It’s only a Prop, so it can’t be perfect.)

Where to find Prop-ifiers? They can be found from Chests, on top of Abductors, and in the Mothership.

Balance Changes

• The Aliens continue to make the Island their home: the availability of Alien Nanites from the ground has become greater.

Misc.

• Last week, Prop Disguise services from vendors were disabled due to an issue. We’ll let players know when these services are re-enabled.
• Please note that the Prop-ifier is not present in competitive playlists.

Like said, the August 10 update for Fortnite really doesn’t offer much in terms of new content. Still, the new Prop-ifier weapon should provide new tools to score some kills. The increased Alien Nanites should help as well for completing various tasks, even if not a whole lot. All around, some welcome additions.

Fortnite is available on PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, Android, and iOS. For more information regarding this update, check out the official blog post.
