Fortnite update today (19th March): What's changed in v29.01 patch notes?

Upon its release in February, the roguelike deck-building game Balatro surpassed all expectations, selling 250,000 copies in its first three days on the market and over one million copies in only one month. Fast-paced and easy to approach, it’s proven to be addictive to most dabblers, and almost two months post-release, the game is gearing up to receive its first major update.

Helldivers 2 no longer cleans up the blood on armor after missions, and players are enjoying this change not mentioned in the patch notes. For the unaware, the recent Helldivers 2 update has shadow-dropped some new content, including a charger meter feature for the LAS-99 Quasar Cannon. As it turned out, this update has quietly added two new enemies that belong to the Automaton faction, Gunships and Factory Striders.

Fortnite's newest balancing update nerfs the Reaper Sniper Rifle and Frenzy Auto Shotgun while buffing the Chains of Hades and Waterbending. The patch also makes a change to Hand Cannons, which were re-introduced to Fortnite with Chapter 5 Season 2.

The season two finale of Invincible has a cheeky little easter egg that canonises Mark's appearance in Fortnite and explains how he got to the Island in the first place.

Helldivers 2 has dropped a new update today (Tuesday 2nd April), with a big pile of official patch notes to explain what's what.

For smartphone users across India, be prepared for a shift in how to call forwarding functions on your Android or iPhone devices. The Department of Telecom (DoT) is taking action to tackle fraud and online crimes perpetrated via mobile phones.

This directive comes into effect on April 15, 2024, until further notice.

The V29.10 update dropped on March 26, adding a whole host of vehicles for players to build. It's called the Mechanical Mayhem patch, which also addresses some of the more persistent bugs that've been present since launch. Expect to unlock new vehicle parts which can be used to get around in style. The new Hauler can be used to move resources across large distances too, making it extremely useful for setting up new camps.

Epic Games releases update 29.10 for LEGO Fortnite, bringing new vehicle builds, custom designs, new crafting tools, as well as bug fixes as well. The Mechanical Mayhem update follows suit with another recent LEGO Fortnite patch earlier in March which added Kit Bundles to the experience. Using prebuilt designs, players could essentially purchase new building designs like Beachside Boulevard or Durrr Burger to spruce up their map.

Another week, another Fortnite update. Like death and taxes (but a lot more fun), one of the certainties in life is that Epic Games is always tinkering away behind the scenes and adding new content to Fortnite.

LEGO Fortnite is getting updated with version 29.10, which has been named Mechanical Mayhem. This new update is bringing vehicles to the game, including three free vehicle builds. Those are the Speeder, the Offroader, and the Hauler. Players will also be able to build their own customised vehicles, and there will be new toys too such as wheels, seats and power centers. A new item called the Compost Bin is being added, which will allow resources to be recycled to create Biomass, Fertilizer, or Soil. Biomass will need to be used to create Power Cells.
