The Rocket Launcher is one of the most popular explosive weapons in Fortnite Battle Royale introduced in Season 0, aka Pre-Season. It deals explosive damage and is a nifty tool for causing chaos. Players love it, and many of them wish for this weapon to be introduced in Chapter 5 Season 3 to combat the onslaught of vehicles.

The Rocket Launcher shoots a single large projectile that deals heavy explosive damage upon contact. The only downside is the relatively slow speed at which its projectile travels, allowing targets to escape. The weapon works like a charm against both players and structures. Here are its stats:
