All the new weapons in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 3
Besides the weapon changes in Season 3, three new weapons have been added. According to leaks and as seen in the gameplay trailer, fans can expect even more exciting weapons and items to arrive on the island soon.
A high-powered scoped rifle or DMR has been added to the game. It will be available in all rarities, ranging from common to mythic.
Besides this, players will also see an all-new AR. The Hammer AR is a fully automatic, flexible assault rifle with a unique recoil pattern.
For close range combat, Epic Games has also released a Two-Shot Shotgun that deals up to 115.5 headshot damage for the legendary variant. This means that a single magazine of the weapon is enough to eliminate a player with accurately placed shots.
Players will be looking forward to using this weapon in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 3 and hoping that it is enough to replace the long-lost Pump Shotgun.
