Fortnite update 8.20.1 patch notes: What's new in Battle Royale and Save the World?

Remember that Fortnite update we reported on earlier? Well Epic Games has finally released the full list of patch notes.

Fortnite update 8.20.1 can now be downloaded for PS4, Xbox One, PC, Nintendo Switch, iOS and Android.

But you probably shouldn’t get too excited, because there are no new weapons, no exciting new events and no big changes to the gameplay.

Instead, the new Fortnite update fixes some bugs and improves the overall stability of the game.

“We have deployed a new patch to fix some bugs and stability issues,” reads an Epic tweet. “The list of fixes will be available soon. This update will not require downtime.”

According to the patch notes, the update fixes issues with trap placement, The Baller vehicle and friend invites.

Epic has fixed an issue with spectator numbers not updating, as well as a problem with the Poison Dart Trap being hidden behind wall assets.
