A big storm is about to roll through the world of Fortnite. Your mission is to survive. The Survive The Storm update is coming on Tuesday, Aug. 29 and it includes the new Survive The Storm mode which has special mutant Storms that pose unique challenges and rewards, new weapons, new heroes, new defenders and more! The threat is only here for a limited time, so be sure to try out Survive The Storm and grab some exclusive loot. It’s time to save your bacon!

The Survive the Storm mode is a limited-time mode which will test even the most prepared Commander. Gather resources during the day while battling increasingly more difficult threats every night.
These limited-time Storms have modifiers like enraged husks or limited health. Survive these Storms and you can earn some special loot, including the new hydraulic weapon set!

Scavenged from the industrial yards of Plankerton, and rebuilt into husk-destroying machines, these nine high-impact weapons can only be acquired by earning tickets as you complete mutant storms.
There are also new heroes and defenders along with a host of performance enhancements and brand new art for the Canny Storm Shield Homebase.
