Congrats, Fortnite!
Fortnite’s birthday update is available for PC, PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and iOS, with a new set of weekly challenges for the Battle Pass, a new submachine gun and the return of Playground Mode.
The fans were glad most for the birthday-themed skins, a Battle Bus strewn with streamers and birthday challenges that are available for everybody, even if don’t have a Battle Pass. That is the most exciting additions to the patch.
When you first log in, you will see a lot of new “birthday” challenges, including dancing in front of birthday cakes on the map, a cake cosmetic set, the bus decked out with streamers and balloons and many more.

As we have already mentioned, Epic Games brought back loved playground mode and they also added a compact SMG gun. The playground mode is basically the same, but the spawn rate has increased.
Fortunately, you are now able to change teams mid-game and it won’t end if someone leaves. Also, Slurp Juice got a major revamp and now heals one hit point every 0.5 seconds, capping at up to 75 hit points (that’s up from 25 before the update).
Looks like some birthday minigames have been added around the map, including skeet shooting: pic.twitter.com/TN0t4H4wSi

Epic Games added three free Birthday challenges to unlock various items: a birthday cake-themed character skin, a new spray and a birthday-themed backpack called “back bling.” To do so, play 14 battle royale matches to complete the first challenge, then deal 1,000 damage to opponents to complete the second.
The third one is weird though: you’ll need to dance in front of 10 birthday cakes scattered around the island.

Recently, Sela Shiloni posted on Twitter a photo landscape of Llano, California with something weird on it. Weird for those, who don’t know about the game “Fortnite”. It turned out that a giant burger is not some kind of burger but a specific one! It’s a “Durr Burger” from the popular game Fortnite.
No, it’s not only the burger, that’s also the loot llamas and a 1980s police car appeared in several corners of the world and Nexter.org has some theories why.
