Fortnite adds the Harpoon Weapon unannounced

Fortnite has added a new weapon to the game: the harpoon weapon. Game updates don't tell what's new and fans are a bit upset.

With Fortnite Chapter 2, which destroyed the previous map , Epic Games has removed the weapons it added to the original game. This decision hasn't pleased many fans, but Epic Games is in charge, and we have to adapt. Along with the new Fortnite episode, they've started a policy of not specifying changes in the patch notes, such as the addition of the Harpoon Gun.

New weapon in Fortnite: Harpoon Weapon

Until a few hours ago that fans have not realized, no one knew about the existence of the Harpoon Weapon in Fortnite Chapter 2. Epic Games has added it in a recent patch and it was not until it began to appear on Reddit and social networks that you can get this weapon now.

Now, how does the Harpoon Gun work? Here are some details that have been discovered:

• Deals 75 base damage.
• It has ten hits. It means that if it is fired and does not hit an enemy or a structure, we will not lose the ammunition.
• It is ideal for catching fish in fishing spots.
• Its rarity is three stars, blue color.

Of course, there are already those who consider that the Harpoon Weapon is broken within the balance of Fortnite, but it is a matter of seeing how users adapt and if Epic Games makes any small changes to silence users. It is an interesting novelty but with its policy of not giving details in the patch notes, many players, especially professional and competitive ones, are annoyed because they have to go blind with each update without knowing if any technique or weapon has gained or lost effectiveness. .
