LATEST – New 16.40 Update Downtime Starts
It’s time for another semi-major update. This will be the fourth one since the start of Season 6 and we’re expecting to see new vehicle mods, a change-around of the current weapons in-game any maybe even an expansion of the mod system to weapons or equipment.
Right now, Epic Games has confirmed that Fortnite is going offline to apply the update on their end of things.
So far, all we know is that The Dub, the Exotic Shotgun, is being vaulted and there’s a new Exotic Marksman, Six Shooter, joining the game.
Keep an eye on FortniteStatus for the latest. The downtime is expected to last at least an hour.

Knights Of The Food Court Revealed
A new set of original skins from Epic Games have been revealed ahead of their release via Fortnite’s official Twitter account.
The Knights of the Food Court seem to showcase a medieval-inspired twist on the food-related skins that the game has seen over the last few years. This includes Tomato-Head and Durr Burger.
We don’t know exactly but we’re certain these skins will cost between 1,500 V-Bucks and 2,000 V-Bucks. As for the bundles, which will include Harvesting Tools and most likely a Glider of some kind, that’s anyone’s guess. We could see a new Loading Screen added, new Emotes, and even a Back Bling.
Custom Battle Pass Skins For Season 7
HYPEX has reported that a new class has been added to the game called “Battle Pass Custom Skin Page”.

This sounds like where Maya from Chapter 2 Season 2 would be placed, as she was a character that we could customize by unlocking different elements throughout the season.
Could we be set to see more customizable skins in future seasons?
