Fortnite Patch v29.01 - All New Weapons

Fortnite v29.01 is here! Some Fortnite players might notice that the new update did not bring any cosmetics. We can expect quite a lot of them with the next patch, a week from now. The focus of this update is gameplay - the Midas event and the introduction of UEFN support for Rocket Racing. However, Fortnite Patch 29.01 did deliver three new weapons. Here they are:

Chains of Hades

Hades is getting his Mythic! We're all aware of the Greek Mythology theme in Fortnite, which really made Chapter 5 Season 2 stand out. In this update, we'll get the weapon that belongs to the God of the Underworld.

The Chains of Hades are a very dangerous melee weapon, fused with the power of the Underworld. A long-ranged hookshot will allow you to do some damage at a greater distance. You can "rip" enemies into range and finish them off with a combo.

Chains of Hades immediately got a hotfix after the release, making it stronger:

• Hit 1 damage: - 35 ➥ 40
• Hit 2 damage: - 35 ➥ 40
• Hit 3 damage: - 60 ➥ 70

Where to find the Chains of Hades? If you're wondering how to get the Chains of Hades, this weapon can be found in Floor Loot, Chests, Supply Drops, and as a drop from the Hades Boss.

The Drum Gun

The Chapter 5 version of The Drum Gun is now enabled in Fortnite! It's available in Rare, Epic, and Legendary versions. It's a heavy submachine gun with a really high rate of fire (starting at 8.1 and going up to 8.3).

Where to find the Drum Gun? If you're wondering how to get this gun, you can pick it up from Floor Loot, Chests, Supply Drops, Supply Drones, NPC sales, Weapon Display Cases, and the "Pow" Boss.

Shield Bubble Jr

Shield Bubble Jr can create a small bubble that will protect you. It blocks enemy projectiles and explosives. However, keep in mind that enemies can enter it and run through it.
