The second season of Fortnite Chapter 3 began in March 2021 and will conclude on June 3rd. It introduced several fascinating improvements, such as the addition of the Zero Build mode, and apparently, there will be a lot more. Although Fortnite version 20.10 is a small update, it will offer new skins, weapons, and other features to the game. Here’s all we know so far, starting with the patch’s release timing.

The new upgrade will be accompanied by a period of server outage, which will begin at 9 a.m. BST in the United Kingdom. From 8.30 a.m. BST, however, matchmaking will be disabled.
Update 20.10 will include Eivor Varinsdottir cosmetics from Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, and a new shotgun, as per the newest leaks. The map will also be modified, with the combat lines between The Seven and the IO being moved.
Upcoming Shotgun Stats.
This one is a a single barrel shotgun, mix of the pump & double barrel. It shoots 1 bullet then reloads just like the double barrel animation (we've seen it in the trailer). The stats go up to Mythic but idk if we'll get a mythic tho, here it is anyway: pic.twitter.com/uNcU51ktl9
