Now Playing: Fortnite Update 5.41 Adds Spiky Stadium, Port-A-Fortress; Switch Bundle Announced - GS News Update
Port-a-Fortress, meanwhile, instantly spawns a huge fortress for you to defend from. It comes in Legendary rarity only, and can be found in Vending Machines, chests, Supply Drops, and Supply Llamas. It appears similar to a previously-introduced item, the Port-a-Fort, except much larger.
Finally, Soaring Solos is a new mode that Epic describes as "classic Battle Royale with gliders that can be re-deployed by pressing Jump when falling from large heights." For more on the latest Fortnite update, check out the full patch notes below, via Epic Games.

Limited Time Mode: Soaring Solos
Classic Battle Royale with gliders that can be re-deployed by pressing Jump when falling from large heights.
Playground
We've introduced a new consumable to the Playground LTM that will allow you to spawn an entire Spiky Stadium. We were inspired by the amazing things you've been making within Playground, and cannot wait to see what you create as we continue to build out the future of creative mode in Fortnite.

Unsupported characters within in-game names will now show up as �, rather than the fallback debugging font glyph that was previously used. Loading the fallback font was causing long hitches for clients, so we've disabled it.
