Fortnite Battle Royale update V.21.30 is here, which means this year’s summer festivities are in the wings! You’ll get more info in the coming days – but while you’re preparing, you can be ready NOW with the new first-shot shotgun:

First Shot Shotgun: Loaded and Ready

First shot is first shot. The First shot shotgun Causes the most damage with the first shot after it has been completely reloaded! Although the remaining three shots are not as powerful as the first, the damage from all three cartridges is the same. Of course, you can always check the ammo gauge to see how many shots you have left, but you can also get this information from the lights on the side of the shotgun.

You want every shot to really hurt? Then just reload after the first shot. If you don’t have time to do that, the other three shells will also get you there. The first-shot shotgun can be found on the ground, in chests, and in supply deliveries, as well as obtained from reality seedlings, by fishing, and from sharks.
