Fortnite's latest patch is out now, after Epic Games' server maintenance went longer than anticipated. However, the game is back up and running now and features some tweaks and and improvements to various parts of the game.

Following issues with server maintenance, update 2.3.0 was released to Fortnite on PS4, Xbox One, and PC, and it focuses a lot on bug fixes, item balancing, and small, quality-of-life improvements. For example, Epic has added auto-run to the game, triggered by pressing "=" and "NumLock" on PC, and by double-clicking the left stick on consoles. In addition, it has added the Chug Jug item, which takes 15 seconds to consume but grants max Health and Shields. Additionally, you'll no longer earn stat or challenge progress when quitting a match early. Those will only be awarded upon elimination or victory.
