00:00What's up Fortnite fam, I'm your update host Matt Harris and I'm finally back once again to break down everything new in Fortnite's 15.2 update.
00:12The frigid frosts of the Snowdown event have passed, and a whole bunch of new items and changes to the map have been added to the game.
00:20So grab a cookie, sit down and relax as we take a dive through all of the changes and leaks in the new update.
00:27As usual Epic Games has released some sub-par patch notes explaining the biggest changes coming in the update.
00:34So we'll go over those first.
00:36First and foremost we've got a brand new weapon coming to the game.
00:39The new lever action shotgun will blow your opponents away with a single blast now available in regular loot drops.
00:47Next up is the new exotic the Hop Rock Duelies.
00:51With this new exotic class weapon purchasable from certain characters with your bars, you'll be able to shred through your enemies with bouncing style.
01:00The forest is moving and something might be out there.
01:05The secret battle pass skin is getting closer to release and so Epic's marketing is hyping the character up with some changes in the stealthy stronghold,
01:12which might just reveal who they are and what they're planning.
01:16What are those changes?
01:17Well, the Yoja Predator's ship has crash landed in the area.
01:21According to dataminers, the Predator himself will soon become an NPC that you can fight in the area.
01:28Meanwhile, Agent Jones will be bringing in the big guns with two new hunters joining in the Fortnite Season 5 Chaos.
01:35But we don't quite know who those are yet.
01:38Last but certainly not least is a welcome change to the pre-edit options.
01:43In 15.1, Epic made some changes to the way pre-edit options worked in the game.
01:48But their changes didn't quite seal the deal for you piece control monsters out there.
01:53So, now with disabled pre-edits turned on, all player built structures will not be editable until they are actually placed down on the map.
02:02Meaning you'll get the correct piece every single time.
02:06Hey, on the subject of piece control, is that something that you want to get better at?
02:10Well, why not head over to ProGuides.com right now so you can spec up on all your Fortnite skills to try and make 2021 your year in Fortnite competitive.

02:37As usual, the data miners have been hard at work uncovering all the secrets of the Fortnite files.
02:42Allowing us to see the majority of the skins and cosmetics that are coming in this update.
02:47They've also given us a look at the weapons that have came out of the vault this patch.
02:52We'll go through the weapons first.
02:54Now available to play with once again is the legendary tactical AR and the rare tactical AR.
03:00There is of course the new lever action shotgun and an uncommon snowy flopper.
03:05According to Hypex, some changes have been made to the way IO guards work.
03:10These dangerous NPC enemies now have the chance of dropping shields and health.
03:15And their obnoxiously loud sounds have been lowered.
03:19There's one pretty cool addition coming to the game that we won't be seeing until the Gorefx Floor is Lava tournament.
03:26Since the beginning of Chapter 2, there have been other islands surrounding the main island off in the distance.
03:32Well, for the tournament, those islands will be replaced by an ominous volcano off in the distance.
03:39On the skins front, we've got Tess, Orin, Ruby Shadows and the new Bush Ranger Winter variant and the new Trinity Orange variant.
03:48As for the harvesting tools, there's the Trixie Axe, Null Pick, Shadow Slicer and a new style option for the Honey Hitters called the Maple Machetes.
03:58Next up is Back Bling's. There's the Prickly Heart, Mecha Fusion Jump Kit and the Blackout Bag.
04:04There's also a new Buzzy Bag Winter variant.
04:07There are a couple of new gliders in the form of the Spiky Jet and the Sky Shadow.
04:12And last of all, the wraps. We've got Hearts and Bullets, Star Mapping, Warp Field and Far Out.
04:19That's everything that was added in today's update.
04:22You know, it makes sense that this week's update would have been a smaller one.
04:25We had a massive update just before the holiday break and Epic have only been back at work for a week now.
04:31Here's hoping that the next update brings a lot more to the Fortnite island.
