Epic Games has released a new downloadable Fortnite update today, 4.12 (1.000.123), on January 30th, 2024. Here are the patch notes for the release.
It’s been a week since Epic Games released the first major Fortnite update of the season with the v28.10 release.
The update didn’t include much for the core Battle Royale game mode. However, there were a large number of changes to LEGO Fortnite.
Although a Jump Pad was the only new addition to LEGO Fortnite, there was a long list of changes and quality-of-life improvements Epic Games released.
A few skins also received a LEGO Style including Thanos, Wolverine, Spider-Man, Loki, and Finn, and more outfits will get a LEGO style over the coming months.
Every major new Fortnite update is usually followed by a content update although they usually just bring back a previously vaulted item.
Today, Epic Games announced a new Fortnite update, 4.12 (1.000.123) will be released today. Here’s everything you need to know about the latest release.
