Perks are available in Fortnite chapter 4 season 1. Here is how to get and use Reality Augments.
Players have been unable to play Fortnite since the Chapter three Fracture finale event. However, Epic Games did task players with finding some of the new features, items, and Battle Pass outfits in the meantime.
Players could find and enter coordinates into the Fortnite chapter 4 site. Now that it’s been 100% completed, players can get themselves a free loading screen.
As of writing, the servers are still down but the new update is available to download. The patch notes for the v23.00 Fortnite update have been released, giving us some insight into what we can expect.
One of the new features in Fortnite chapter 4 season 1 is the Reality Augments which are essentially Fortnite’s own perk system. Thanks to the information we have from the patch notes as well as data miners, we have all the information you need on the Fortnite chapter 4 Reality Augment Perks.
What are Reality Augment Perks in Fortnite?
Reality Augments are Fornite’s perk system in chapter 4 season 1. At intervals during a match, players will be given two randomly selected Reality Augments (perks).
The longer a player can remain in a match, the more perks you’ll collect. All of the Reality Augment perks you get will remain until the match ends.
How to Get Them
As outlined above, players can get the Reality Augments at intervals in a match. The longer you remain in a game, the more you’ll get. There isn’t any set location where you can find or collect them.
Players can, however, reroll for another chance to get their favorite Fortnite perk.
How to Use Them
Once you get Augments in Fortnite, you’ll get a notification on your screen. You’ll see a prompt on how to activate them when you first get one as seen in the image below.
All Fortnite Perks List and What They Do
