New Heavy AR (AK-47) Is Now Available in Fortnite Battle Royale

A big new patch - 6.22 patch, has just come out in Fortnite today, adding one significant weapon to the game, the new Heavy AR, which strikes a resemblance towards the well-known AK-47 rifle. Players have already been asking for a weapon like this for some time, with various ideas drawn up by fans showing how an AK-47 might be made Fortnite style.


NO.1 What you should know about the new Heavy AR



Now ultimately within the game, and merely called 'Heavy AR', it completes the set together with the 'Heavy Shotgun' and 'Heavy Sniper'. What all these fortnite save the world weapons have in popular is the fact that they truly do some significant harm. Quite a bit of stopping energy tends to make the Heavy Sniper and Heavy Shotgun deadly weapons at their respective ranges.

The Heavy AR appears to become no different, having a thick, chunky sound when firing and a high damage output. Because the official weapon description puts it, "this weapon packs a punch!", which you can see below courtesy of streamer 'Shaggyy' - and this really is only the rare variant.

Also as dealing higher harm to opponents, it'll also tear by means of builds also, so no matter the scenario it looks like this AR will often be reputable. Its fire price is slower than some of the other Assault Rifles, but this really is extra than produced up for by the higher harm, plus having a lower fire rate you ought to be extra accurate.

The Heavy AR is accessible in all game modes now in Fortnite Battle Royale and comes in Rare, Epic, and Legendary rarities, so jump in and try it out for oneself.

NO.2 What other new updates apart from Heavy AR?



Elsewhere inside the patch, there is a new team-based zombie mode, the return of Blitz, and not all that a lot else. But something located in the leaked files on the game suggests that one thing far more fascinating may be coming.

There are actually files that indicate a new automobile known as the "Bumblebee" is on the horizon. The twist here is that it seems to be an aerial automobile, along with the leaked sound files indicate that it might be some kind of plane.

How this works and how large it's is anyone's guess, as there has not been any art leaked for the Bumblebee yet. It may be something tiny, an individual flying car, or it might be something bigger for an entire squad, an approach to get from one end from the map towards the other swiftly. Presumably, you can use such a car to outrun the storm, or primarily a second battle bus, enabling you to drop and glide from up high to a new location.

We've also heard about one more car, the Antelope, that is supposed to become coming at some point inside the future, so it seems that Fortnite actually wants to expand its garage past the ATK, Quadcrasher and I guess the shopping cart, should you count that as an automobile. A plane will be quite considerable, based on how it worked, and I'd love to view the challenges that went along with it when it arrived.
