  Another week, another Fortnite update! Fortnite patch 5.30 adds a variety of fun new stuff, including the new Rift-To-Go item, which lets you teleport back into the sky from wherever you are, and the Score Royale Limited-Time Mode that puts the focus on racking up high scores rather than kills. Meanwhile, the original Save the World version of Fortnite gets the powerful multi-barreled Blunderbuss assault rifle.

  Here are your notes for Fortnite patch 5.30:
