A brand new Fortnite update was deployed earlier today (July 6) across PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, Android, and PC, with v21.20 bringing some brand new content, fixes, and more.

The update did mean that servers were taken offline for around two hours, but it's worth the wait. Once again, Epic Games will be making some big changes to the Fortnite island in the v21.20, as well as kicking off the new summer event with some brand new skins.

If you're eager to find out more, check out the official patch notes and details for the July 6 Fortnite update below.

Fortnite Update 3.62 Patch Notes

Below you will find the official patch notes for the July 6 Fortnite update, which is now available on all supported platforms.

UNLOCK INDY + SEARCH SHUFFLED SHRINES

Ready for some fortune and glory? Indiana Jones’ Battle Pass Quests go live starting 9 AM ET on July 6, 2022! Complete these Quests to unlock the Indiana Jones Outfit and more items from his Set.

Just in time for Indy’s entrance, the Shuffled Shrines temple has been discovered on the Island! Explore this POI just west of The Joneses for an ancient architecture adventure.

CHARGE SMG: SEND A BULLET BARRAGE

Found from the ground, Chests, Supply Drops, Reality Saplings, and sharks, pick up the new Charge SMG to wind up a punch! You’ll activate a charge by holding down the trigger, and the more you hold it, the more bullets you’ll release when you let go. How to know when to release? You’ll see a gauge on-screen showing how far in the charge you are. Send a strategic full charge or a spontaneous partial charge!

(With the arrival of the Charge SMG, the Combat SMG has been vaulted.)

FORTIFY FAST WITH THE PORT-A-FORT

Nothing says good vibes like convenience: the Port-A-Fort is back! Throw down a Port-A-Fort — found from the ground as well as Chests — to fortify yourself in seconds. Zero building is required, as the fort will arise on its own.


RIPSAW LAUNCHER LOCATIONS

Even though Ripsaw Launcher Week has come to an end, you can still find Ripsaw Launchers from the ground, Chests, and Supply Drops in addition to The Chop Shop! However, with Ripsaw Launcher Week being over, this weapon will be in a more standard supply.
