It’s a bit of a surprise to see the Fortnite 2.54 update patch notes dropping today, as there was no warning by the official Fortnite social media accounts. While a larger 11.50 patch was expected for next week, no one was really anticipating a smaller update to roll out today (January 29).
Here’s what the new update changes:

- Goalbound Set Outfits have number in front instead of back.
- The issue involving difficulty scrolling/selecting Friends in the Social menu will be resolved in a future release.
Battle Royale
- Ziplines temporarily disabled due to issue.
- Can’t edit structures when looking straight down.
- Unintentionally editing building pieces through floors.
- The issue involving picking up DBNO teammates when trying to switch to the Pickaxe will be resolved in a future release.

- Particles and Beacons can no longer be customized/interacted with.
- Some featured Islands are missing in-game description.
Thankfully, renowned Fortnite dataminer @ShiinaBR has been quick to explore even more changes to the game. These include a new “Freemix” emote, new Super Bowl styles for the football skins, and “several updates for Save the World.”
