what’s new in update 19.01 of the ‘Battle Royale’

Through update 19.01 of Fortnite, ‘Battle Royale’ players can now experience the new weather phenomena: tornadoes and lightning. Contrary to what might be thought, players are encouraged to approach these phenomena. While tornadoes can be used to facilitate horizontal movement, lightning bolts provide a temporary speed boost. They can also start fires.

As if the aforementioned weather phenomena weren’t enough, the flare gun is now selectable. It can be found in chests, on the ground, and in supply drops.

To celebrate the debut of these climatic phenomena in Fortnite, tornado week will be active until 9:00 AM (Colombia time) on January 17. During this frame, there will be higher chances of players encountering tornadoes on the island.

It should be noted that the aforementioned weather phenomena and the flare gun are not available in the competitive playlists. During this season, items such as the Flare Gun and Shield Barrel could be introduced in Competitive modes.
