Fortnite update 18.30 Patch Notes gets community buzzing

1) Salvaged B.R.U.T.E incoming

Mechs will be coming back in-game soon, and with them, the meta will shift once more. Based on the Fortnite update 18.30 Patch Notes, the new Mech is called "Salvaged B.R.U.T.E." and will be funded by players.

This version of the Mech has received numerous reductions across the board. Unlike last time, players shouldn't be overpowered by this mechanical beast and should be able to put up a fair fight.

Here is a picture of the Salvaged B.R.U.T.E in-GAME:
