Fortnite patch v4.4 is here and it seems like Epic are keeping the changes pretty light before Tuesday’s Fortnite Pro Am tournament. Patch v4.4 is bringing a new gun to Battle Royale, as well as taking away the jetpack and fixing a few bugs. That’s about it. On the Save the World side, players can expect a little more with the addition of new missions and a brand new hero coming to the game.

The biggest Battle Royale change coming in this patch — other than the removal of the jetpack, which has become one of the game’s most hated items — is the addition of the new Thermal Scoped Assault Rifle. This new epic and legendary variant of the Scoped Assault Rifle uses a special heat-seeking scope to show you the location of enemy players, chests and even supply drops. Just like it’s regular scoped cousin, it will use medium ammo and can be found on floors, in chests or in supply drops.
