Fortnite update 21.50 is out now! Here we have the release date, patch notes and everything else you need to know.

This update will most likely be the last update for Chapter 3 Season 3 as the next chapter looms. As usual, and as many anticipated updates, their release of chapter 4 has been surrounded by leaks. 

Update 21.40 came with the Fortnite x Dragon Ball collab which players are still enjoying. While there is a lot to enjoy in the current update, we are looking forward to the new challenges, maps, skins, events, as well as possible crossovers.

The Fortnite patch update 21.50 is out now! It was officially released on the 30th of August 2022.

Below we’ll showcase all the relevant changes included within the patch notes.

Here are the official 21.50 patch notes, sourced from the official Epic Games website. They are as follows:

First off – Swords and hammers are now in Creative! You can use the Melee Designer device to customize a melee weapon. Some examples of customizations are: changing the amount of damage it does, giving it a special name, giving it special attacks, or deciding whether it affects the player’s stats. 

The rest of the various different updates are below – it’s a big update this one.

The XL (extra large) islands use a grid-based memory thermometer, meaning whatever is placed in one grid square only contributes to the memory budget of the grid squares it influences. This feature is now active on all islands! This will make it easier for you to balance your islands and make the most of your memory budget.

You can enter first-person mode while building in Create mode on your islands. This will give you a finer degree of control when you are placing terrain, structures, or devices. The setting for Immersive Editing is in your Quick Menu, which you can open using the Options hotkey.

Like the Melee Designer device, this system is complex. Despite our extensive testing, Immersive Editing is likely to have some bugs and edge-cases that we haven’t found, so we consider this an open beta feature. You can help us out by reporting any issues you have when you’re using the feature.

Your islands can now have up to 60 players or teams!

We have changed the way that server lifetime and restart is handled. Previously when you arrived on your island, there was a Storm countdown, and the Storm eliminated you when the server was about to restart. Now, there are pop-up messages that alert you to the remaining server lifetime, and the server automatically returns anyone on the island to the Fortnite Lobby when it restarts.

As part of the upcoming Rainbow Royale event, a new Rainbow Royale flag prop has been added to General Props Gallery A. There are plenty of other great things planned for Rainbow Royale, so check out the Fortnite Creative social media channels to learn more!

Plant mom (don't judge). Controversial opinion, Lewis Hamilton should have won the 2021 Formula 1 Driver's Championship. I prefer British English and having an oolong time writing!
