'Fortnite' Update 12.10 Adds Proximity Mine & Llamas - Patch Notes

Fortnite update 12.10 is officially live, and, while Epic refuses to release official patch notes for the new build, we've managed to scrounge together most of its key details from various sources including the official Fortnite Trello and the Battle Royale subreddit. The Proximity Mine is here, and Llamas are back. Read our makeshift patch notes below.

  • As frustrating as it may be that Epic Games doesn't offer as many details on Fortnite updates as it used to, we know enough about the 12.10 patch to understand it doesn't offer much outside the realm of bug fixes across all three modes. That being said, the Proximity Mine in particular is well worth discussion and debate given its unique abilities. The opportunity to see opponents through walls offers a massive advantage in any shooter, and, as such, it may take time for developers to properly balance how this item works. In its current state, it looks like this mine may be a little overpowered.

    With regard to other small bug fixes, most of the listed changes will impact those who've dug in deep to Fortnite's Creative suite. The launch of Season 2 added dozens of new features, and 12.10 goes great lengths to iron out those kinks. In other words, if you've had issues with clipping, objects appearing to be an incorrect color or poor menu organization, this patch should solve those shortcomings. Fortnite update 12.10 may not be the sexiest patch this game has ever seen, but there is enough new stuff here to keep the community playing. If only Epic would officially tell us the contents of the update...

    Fortnite is available now on PS4, Xbox One, Switch, PC and mobile.
