With the Halloween fever now over, Epic Games is bringing back Fortnite to its original state which means no more Fortnitemares or the iconic Pumpkin Launchers. That being said, the original state of the game is also getting an update today which sets to introduce not only a new weapon called the Heavy AR but also a ton of all-new NFL skins and LTMs.

According to the official post, Epic Game is bringing its v6.22 Patch to Fortnite today. The all new update will be available on all leading platforms. This includes the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PC and Mobile. So, for all those who have been waiting for all-new Fortnite content, the time has come.

The downtime for the update is currently underway. However, from what we have been seeing over the past couple of months, players would not have to wait much longer as these downtimes usually go on for a couple of hours, at max.
