Fortnite adds the crossbow in OG mode: a new hilarious tactical approach

Fortnite continues to evolve with the addition of a new weapon in OG mode: the crossbow. Known for its precision and discretion, it offers players a silent alternative to traditional weapons and encourages new strategies. Unlike rifles or submachine guns, its main strength lies in its ability to eliminate an opponent without attracting attention, allowing the stealthiest players to operate without being immediately spotted. This feature makes it a formidable choice for those who like to surprise their enemies and take a more tactical approach.

Thanks to its accuracy, the crossbow is particularly effective for long-range eliminations. Its lack of noise also means that a player equipped with this weapon can remain hidden longer, thus increasing their chances of survival. Its addition slightly alters the dynamics of combat, forcing players to be more aware of their environment and consider more cautious strategies. Now, it will no longer be enough to just listen for gunfire to detect an opponent's presence, and the use of defensive items like natural cover or shields becomes even more essential.

Alongside this new feature, Fortnite recently rolled out update 34.10, which improves matchmaking to avoid unbalanced teams and make matches fairer. Other additions are planned for the coming weeks, including new maps and weapons in April. A major update is also expected on March 25, with significant improvements for the LEGO Fortnite mode, confirming Epic Games' commitment to providing regular and diverse content.

With this new weapon and constant updates, Fortnite continues to enrich its experience by offering increasingly varied mechanics. The addition of the crossbow brings an extra dimension to players' strategies and renews the tactical possibilities on the island.
