Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 Patch Notes
Here are the updates for Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 from the official website:
Pandora’s box on Fortnite’s battle royale island has been opened, bringing Olympus into the battlefield. Olympian legends—including Hades and the thunder god Zeus—now rule the island with otherworldly fury. To make matters worse, they brought strength and weapons with them. Use their mythical tactics against them in Season 2, Chapter 5: Myths and Mortals!

legendary location
olympus
- It is impossible to have Olympus without Olympus. As the home of Zeus, you always feel like you are being watched over by the majestic monument of this majestic mountain.
cold door
- One way to reach “Hell” is to cross the river through Grim’s Gate… where the three-headed watchdog Cerberus awaits. Head to the west of the island to fight these canines!
Underground world
- Past the Hound is Hades’ homeworld: Hell. Despite the gurgling streams, the city’s land is almost completely dry.
Fighter’s battlefield
- Ares, the god of war, always welcomes war. Accept his challenge at the Brawler Arena south of Mount Olympus. (Oh yes, Ares will be a costume in the April 2024 Crew Pack!)

These are just some of the locations that the gods brought to the island. However, don’t forget what else they brought to the table…
The land is in chaos
The gods come with their power and weapons, but that doesn’t mean your next battle has to end in tragedy. Make your next battle a myth worth remembering by using them for yourself!
Zeus thunderbolt
- Be your own storm. With Zeus’s Thunder, you can rise into the air and hurl lightning at your target! Use this power wisely, though, as Zeus’s Thunder can be charged up to 3 times, with a cooldown between each charge. How to use this power? This mythical power can be obtained by traveling across the island or defeating Zeus himself.

Gatekeeper Shotgun
- Forged by Hephaestus for Cerberus, the Gatekeeper Shotgun fires three rounds of offensive bullets in rapid succession. This shotgun works best at short ranges, so fire all three shots quickly to show your bite is as bad as your bark! Once you’re done, reload your magazine and be ready for your next target. The Gatekeeper Shotgun can be found throughout the island, but the Mythic version can only be obtained through Cerberus rolls.

Herald submachine gun
- Like Hades himself, the Harbinger SMG is relentless and merciless – even when exhausted. Highly accurate on first shot, its recoil and explosive power increase significantly as more bullets are fired. But that doesn’t stop it from going all out. Find the regular version across the island or defeat the Mythic version of Hades.
Huntress DMR
- Artemis, goddess of the hunt under the moonlight. During battle, take Artemis’s notes and use crafted weapons to deliver punishment from afar. Although it was created for the gods to punish mortals, flip the script and use the Huntress DMR to punish the gods (and some mortals too, we guess). You can search the entire island for the Huntress DMR…or get the mythical version by hunting down Zeus.
Warforged Assault Rifle
- The Warforged Assault Rifle was forged for gods hungry for battle—that’s why it was Ares’s favorite. This assault rifle is powerful but unruly, with high damage, high rate of fire, and strong recoil. Find one across the island or fight Ares to get the mythical version!

Another power…the power of flight!
Zeus’s thunder is not the only Olympian power. Take to the skies with the Wings of Icarus and dive-bomb the enemies below! But beware: fly too far and your wings will be burned out, and taking too much damage may result in a crash landing. Search for this mythical power across the island!
Another Olympian power is coming your way – the Chains of Hades will pull you into it later this season…
Underworld’s Underworld: Weapons from Last Season
Unlike Orpheus looking back at Eurydice, you can use weapons from Season 1 Chapter 5. Here is a list of weapons returning from last season:
- hammer pump shotgun
- Crazy automatic shotgun
- Nemesis AR
- thunderburst submachine gun
- reaper sniper rifle
- ranger pistol
Myths and Mods
Weapons from Olympus alone aren’t enough, the same goes for thermal sights and Speedgrip weapon mods. The thermal scope module, also forged by Hephaestus, can be installed on any weapon with a scope. Want a god-like vision? It more than doubles the scope view and has thermal effects that can be turned on or off! With the Speedgrip mod, your movement speed while aiming will be increased. Set your goals clearly and don’t procrastinate!

Like last season, you can find mods on mod benches, but this time the benches are located in new weapon bunkers. The Unchained Bunker will be unlocked as the game progresses and is ready to attack! If mods aren’t your MO, Weapons Shelter also has… weapons.

Rank Zero Build – NA Paired Test
North American ZB player rankings!
We’ve heard your feedback about long queue times for zero build upper tiers. To solve this problem, we are running a test! The NA East and NA West matchmaking regions will be routed to the NA Central matchmaking region for rank zero builds. This way, ranked zero build players in North America will face more players, which means shorter queue times. The results of that test will determine whether this is a long-term solution.
More ranking updates
The following updates are available for Ranked Battle Royale and Ranked Zero Builds:
- We’ve adjusted the progression of upper levels to make reaching the unreal world more difficult and rewarding.
- Points are no longer awarded for surviving without taking damage.
