This week was a relatively tame one in terms of Fortnite news, with the biggest stories coming by way of the FNCS and in-game cosmetics.

Nonetheless, let’s get you caught up if you missed some of the news stories from the week.

Cosmetics news

Fortnite is one of the most cosmetic-heavy games out there. There’s hardly a week that goes by that doesn’t include news about some new Fortnite skins.

This week, we had Mike Lowry from Bad Boys enter the game – AKA Will Smith.

We also saw a new Crew skin for September, a J Balvin skin enter the game, and the announcement of a new Galaxy skin – which might be the best of all.

Wild Weeks return

Wild Weeks appear to be a seasonal event going forward, with the Season 7 version entering Fortnite two weeks.

The second week of Wild Weeks involved high-flying items like the Rift-to-Go and Bounce Pad, with an increased spawn rate for Launch Pads.

This is a bit too much mobility in my opinion. Third-parties are constant and players escape far too easily.

Luckily, the Wild Week switches soon.
