Fortnite update v25.10 early patch notes: Nike Airphoria collaboration, Super Styles, Shockwave Grenades, and more

The first major update (v25.10) of Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3 will go live on June 20, 2023. As of now, the only thing that can be said with certainty is that Shockwave Grenades will be unvaulted and added back to the loot pool. However, given that this is still experimental, it will be limited to the Zero Build mode only. In theory, this will aid in mobility and make rotations easier.

Aside from the reintroduction of Shockwave Grenades, there's a lot more that can be expected with the upcoming update, based on information obtained by leakers/data miners. For starters, there will be a brand new collaboration with Nike called "Airphoria." Super Styles should also be added in during the downtime, and the Crew Pack for July will likely be showcased as well.

Fortnite update v25.10 early patch notes: New content and changes

1) Fortnite x Nike "Airphoria" collaboration

According to information from leakers/data miners, a brand new collaboration with Nike is set to go live tomorrow once the downtime ends. It's called "Airphoria," and will feature several interesting elements. Players will get to experience a one-of-a-kind and immersive Custom map created using UEFN. There will likely be Challenges/Quests associated with the Custom Map as well.

Furthermore, cosmetics and Outfits/Skins designed by Nike will be available for purchase in the Item Shop. As of this moment, these cosmetics are yet to be decrypted by leakers/data miners.

2) Super Styles

June 20, 2023, will mark the third week of Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3. Such being the case, as is tradition, Super Styles for Outfits/Skins featured in the Battle Pass may be decrypted. Hopefully, Epic Games is able to deliver like last season and keep things looking amazing. Maybe, this time around, Outfits/Skins will have matching Pickaxe Super Styles as well.

3) Shockwave Grenades

Shockwave Grenades have always had a love-hate relationship within the community. Some players rely on them often, while others ignore them completely and avoid picking the utility item up at all costs. Whichever is the case, Epic Games has confirmed that they will be unvaulted once the Fortnite update v25.10 goes live. It'll be interesting to see how players use them in the newly added jungle biome.

4) July Crew Pack

The Crew Pack for July will likely be showcased sometime after the downtime ends. In all probability, either another member of The Unseen will be featured as the new Outfit or perhaps a member of The Luminaries will be brought into the limelight. As this faction is investigating the newly added jungle biome and exploring every nook and cranny of the undergrowth, they may be given a bit more importance.

5) 14 Days of Summer cosmetic and event details

With the 14 Days of Summer event fast approaching, there's a high probability that Epic Games will add in the cosmetics associated with the event. If this turns out to be true, leakers/data miners will be able to showcase the entire lineup of cosmetics during tomorrow's downtime. Details regarding the event itself may also be disclosed if circumstances permit.

6) Ranked Mode reset

Lastly, as per the official statement from Epic Games, Ranks will be reset once the Fortnite update v25.10 goes live. In addition to the reset, it's likely that minor adjustments will be implemented to the Ranked Mode as well. Considering that it's still in a beta stage, it will potentially run through multiple iterations over the next few months. Hopefully, these changes will make the Ranked Mode palatable for professional players.
