TheFortniteChapter 2 update has brought with it a number of major changes to the battle royale game. The biggest and most obvious change is the new battle royale map thatFortniteplayers can now explore, complete with its own quirks and secrets to discover. Something thatFortniteplayers have figured out is that this new battle royale map actually has a way that players can avoid taking fall damage, though it will only work in certain sections of the map.
With theFortniteChapter 2 update, fans of Epic’s battle royale game will note that there are now large green bushes strewn throughout the map. As it so happens, players can safely land on these bushes from any height and they won’t take any damage. While this trick may not be of use all the time, it could help players make a quick escape or get away from the storm when they need to, so it’s not completely useless.

It’s unclear at this point if this way to avoid fall damage inFortniteis in the game purposefully or if it’s a glitch. If it’s a glitch, thenFortniteplayers can expect Epic Games to remove it in future patches.Fortniteupdates typically release on Tuesdays, so it’s possible that this trick to avoidFortnitefall damage will become obsolete in just a couple days time.
Of course, the nextFortniteupdate will likely bring with it some other changes as well. It’s possible that some of thevaultedFortniteweaponsthat Epic did away with will be making a comeback. It’s also possible that some of the vehicles or other items that were vaulted with the Chapter 2 update will be added back to the game as well. Alternatively, Epic may add brand new content toFortnitewith this week’s update, though that remains to be seen.
One thing that’s for certain is that this coming Thursday will feature the next set ofFortnitechallenges for players to complete so that they can advance through the battle pass and unlock as much new content as possible.FortniteChapter 2’s leveling systemactually makes progressing through the battle pass quicker than ever before, so those who play the battle royale game regularly should have no problem unlocking everything.
