Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 1 has introduced a few key things to the game. For starters, there are many new changes to the map, gameplay, and battle pass. One of the biggest gameplay modifications is the introduction of augments.
Augments are a new Chapter 4 mechanic that functions essentially as perks. Perks can be accessed that will slightly alter the gameplay on an individual basis. These are random and different for each individual, so an enemy might have a different perk activated.
There are 22 perks available, here's how to unlock and use them.

How to unlock all of the brand new augments in Fortnite Chapter 4
Upon playing the first match, Fortnite gamers will see that they have some augments unlocked. These will be the ones they can choose from each time the game allows them. This happens about every two and a half minutes.
Each time a new perk can be chosen, more are unlocked. The key to unlocking all the 22 augments isn't a challenge or anything like that, it's just playtime.
After each new perk, there should be another available. Now, access to these is random. Each time the game allows players to choose an augment, it's random. It might not bring a new one each time, but all of them will be unlocked over time.
