Falling donuts, Homer clones and Spider-Pig are all dropping into Fortnite as part of the game’s new update. The Simpsons are en route to the Battle Royal and Delulu modes set to release today (November 11).
Fortnite fans will have plenty to enjoy with update 38.10 scheduled to debut alongside server downtime. Unsurprisingly, the update will introduce a host of new features and skins, including Simpsons fan-favourite bartender Moe, and Spider-Pig as a sidekick. According to insiders, the new update will feature falling donuts from the sky, a detail hinted at in a tweet about the downtime.
“Tomorrow’s forecast: high chance of falling donuts…” reads a tweet from Epic Games. “Downtime for v38.10 begins at 4 AM ET with matchmaking ending shortly beforehand.”
Homer Clones will also be introduced to the game, although this particular feature may not be immediately available.
Additionally, fans can anticipate various bug fixes and gameplay tweaks, as well as game files for more new characters and the next Stranger Things crossover skins, reports All Out Gaming.
Early patch notes for Fortnite update 38.10 reveal the following new Simpsons gameplay features:
New Skins and Sidekicks include Moe Szyslak Item Shop skin and Plopper aka Spider-Pig Sidekick.
General Fixes for Fortnite include addressing the Fortnite Crash Reporter upon exiting the game.
Some players on PC may encounter a Fortnite Crash Reporter error pop-up when closing the game.
However, it’s important to note that your gameplay progress is safe, and a fix for this will be included in a future game update.
Other changes revealed in the Patch notes are:
• There’s a missing player interaction animation when holding a weapon and interacting with a Sidekick. When the Interact button is pressed on a controller while a weapon is equipped, it may trigger the ‘Can’t perform that action’ animation and message. The player’s animation doesn’t play, but the Sidekick’s does.
• Mr. Dappermint appears to be missing his bow tie. When previewing the Outfit in the Locker, Mr. Dappermint’s bow tie might not display correctly.
