Blitz Royale is a new mode in Fortnite which lasts up to just 5 minutes, with a maximum of 32 players in each match. Every player on a small map starts with the same random Medallion or unique weapon, posing the same advantage for all the players. However, players can increase their Blitz level as they progress through the match by eliminating opponents and surviving the Storm circles. That is why Blitz Royale is dubbed as a roguelike mode. Increasing the Blitz level means getting more powerful weapons and power-ups called Boons. Players can look for Golden Chests and Golden Supply drops for even more power-ups and Medallions respectively. Not only that, the Blitz Royale mode will also introduce four weekly updates. Each upcoming update will replace the immediate previous update content like weapons. Here are they:
Date | Week | Theme | Key Highlights |
June 18 | Week 1 | Launch Week! | Mythic versions of popular weapons, like the Rocket Ram, in the rare Golden Llama. |
June 24 | Week 2 | The Avatar Returns! | Pagodas from the Four Nations, Bending Scroll from Avatar: The Last Airbender. |
