Full Changes in the 25.11 Update
Fast forward to the 25.11 update, and Fortnite’s summer celebration is in full swing. This update introduced the Explosive Repeater Rifle, a weapon that fires rounds triggering small explosions on impact. This feature means that players don’t have to directly hit their target to deal damage.
The 25.11 update also introduced two new Reality Augments, both designed to complement the heavy ammo-using Explosive Repeater Rifle. The Heavy Headshots Augment increases headshot damage for weapons using heavy ammo, while the Heavy Ammo Acquired Augment allows players to instantly gain heavy ammo and gain more when opening containers.
Competitive Play and the inclusion of Wildguard Relik
One of the most notable aspects of the 25.11 update is the inclusion of Wildguard Relik, Wildguard Relik’s Cloak Gauntlets, and Relik’s MK-Alpha Assault Rifle from the 25.10 update in tournaments.
This move has added a new level of competitiveness to the game, as players now have more options and strategies to consider.
