Fortnite Jetpack Release Date: What We Know so Far For Battle Royale

What We Know So Far About the Jetpack Release Date in Fortnite Battle Royale

Last week, players may have noticed that Epic Games was teasing that a jetpack item was making its way to Fortnite Battle Royale. Though no information was shared about it, you can pretty much imagine how it’d work, and it’ll certainly make battles against building experts a little more balanced. As with any new item making its way to Fortnite Battle Royale, though, players are likely wondering what the jetpack’s release date now is.

Unfortunately, Epic Games actually delayed the release of the jetpack in Fortnite Battle Royale, citing ‘a last minute design issue‘ as the reason for postponing its release. Instead, the Hunting Rifle was added into Fortnite Battle Royale last week, allowing players to pick off opponents from range without the need for a scope.

Sadly, Epic Games has yet to provide fans with any more news regarding when the jetpack release date has been pushed back to. Chances are we’ll see it in the next few weeks, but this is just us speculating for now. We’ll be sure to update this post as soon as we have any concrete information from Epic Games itself.
