The Fortnite 3.28 (17.50) update patch notes are on their way for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, PC, and Switch are on their way after the brand new update today, August 31. Epic Games has rolled out a new patch for the battle royale game, with server downtime beginning at 4 AM ET and matchmaking disabled 30 minutes beforehand. As a result, leaks and datamined information are inevitably rolling out, showing players what to look forward to in the near future.
Fortnite 3.28 (17.50) update patch notes
As is now tradition, Epic Games hasn’t formally released Fortnite 3.28 patch notes. However, there are a number of fixes it is currently working on that it’s safe to assume could be included in the new update.
These fixes include:
- Weapons may sometimes disappear from Chests and Supply Drops
- Unable to complete ‘Use a Phone Booth as Clark Kent’ quest
- Unable to fish while inside certain vehicles
- Vehicles may desync when a player exits the vehicle
- Losing item functionality after swapping from Prop-ifier to Consumable
We’ll update the patch notes when Epic Games provides an official list of changes.
Fortnite 3.28 (17.50) leaks and datamine
Whenever a new Fortnite update rolls out, leakers shared datamined information obtained via the game’s newly added files. This is no different for this 3.28 update.
The datamined info is slowly trickling out today, with leakers such as HYPEX and more gearing up for the newly added details.
The biggest new addition is the Fortnite Crew Legacy set, which will level up for each month that you’re an active subscriber of the paid monthly subscription service.

We’ll update this story when more leaks and datamined information becomes available.
In other news, we went hands-on with the extreme sports game Riders Republic and were impressed by what we played. The introduction of Fortnite Mega Islands could also make Creative maps four times bigger.
