Fortnite has fired off its latest update, and this one is all about sniping. The Heavy Sniper Rifle, which was first uncovered by data miners a few weeks back, makes its debut, and the Sniper Shootout Limited-Time Mode makes its return. A new mode, Soaring 50s, has also been added – this 50v50 battle lets you redeploy your glider and adds extra bounce and launch pads so you can grab some air. Finally, the classic Save the World mode is getting the new Machinist Hero, Thora.

　　Check out the full notes for Fortnite patch 5.21, below:
