Fortnite’s Playground mode receives major overhaul in the latest update

Ross Deason

The latest Fortnite update has introduced the most significant overhaul of the popular Playground mode since it was introduced back in June.

The V6.01 patch, which was released on October 3, also added an all-new freeze trap called the ‘Chiller’ along with various bug fixes and quality of life improvements.

As far as Playground mode is concerned, the patch notes simply tell us that a number of new options have been added, bringing it closer to the fully customizable mode that fans are hoping to eventually see.

“More options have been added for you to play around with,” stated Epic Games. “[You can] tweak starting health, gravity and more.”

Later in the notes, the developers reveal that even the time of day can be changed.

We will update this post with more information and screenshots as soon as we can get into a game.
