Like death and taxes (but a lot more fun), one of the certainties in life is that Epic Games is always tinkering away behind the scenes and adding new content to Fortnite.<\/p>\n<p>Today, players have the Fortnite v29.10 update to pore over. And now that the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/is-fortnite-down\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Fortnite downtime<\/a> is over, you should be able to drop into the iconic game and try it out for yourself.<\/p>\n<p>With changes rolling out across the main battle royale game and LEGO Fortnite, Rocket Racing and Creative\/UEFN, there is a whole load of new content for you to enjoy. Let\u2019s get into it!<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What\u2019s changed in the Fortnite update today (26th March 2024)?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The biggest changes in today\u2019s Fortnite update seem to have happened in <strong>LEGO Fortnite<\/strong>, with the addition of three new vehicles being dubbed \u2018the Mechanical Mayhem update\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>LEGO Fortnite players can now build the Speeder, the Offroader and the Hauler. You\u2019ll need a Power Center, Power Cells, Wheels, Seats and the relevant recipe to make them.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, in\u00a0<strong>Rocket Racing<\/strong>, the changes seem fairly small, with the developers making changes to skydiving and making it easier to identify vehicles in a tight pack.<\/p>\n<p>In <strong>Creative\/UEFN<\/strong>, players can experiment with new weapons (Harbinger SMG and Chains of Hades) as well as new consumables (Banana of the Gods and Shield Bubble Junior).<\/p>\n<p>And in\u00a0<strong>Battle Royale<\/strong>, numerous balance adjustments have been made, including the fact that snipers are now dropping less frequently. More on the adjustments can be seen in the social post below.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">We&#8217;ve made some Battle Royale balance adjustments in v29.10!<br\/><br\/>\ud83c\udfaf Snipers don&#8217;t drop as frequently, and no longer drop as Uncommon or Rare.<br\/>\ud83d\udd3c The Drum Gun&#8217;s damage and fire rate is increased.<br\/>\ud83c\udff9 Huntress DMR&#8217;s damage and projectile speed is increased.<br\/>\u26d3 Chain of Hades damage has\u2026 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/pYYnhZ23aW\">pic.twitter.com\/pYYnhZ23aW<\/a><\/p>\u2014 Fortnite Status (@FortniteStatus) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FortniteStatus\/status\/1772574327969345555?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 26, 2024<\/a><\/blockquote><script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"\/>\n<h2><strong>Full patch notes for Fortnite v29.10 explained<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>With all of these experiences now existing in the Fortnite ecosystem, not to mention <a href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/fortnite-festival-songs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Fortnite Festival<\/a>, it\u2019s getting gradually more complicated to keep up with all the different updates.<\/p>\n<p>Handily, Epic has provided extensive patch notes across various different platforms to help you stay up to date.
