Fortnite’s PvE “Horde Bash” Update Arrives October 5

Today, Epic Games announced the “Horde Bash Update” for Fortnite’s “Save the World” PvE mode on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC, and Mac. Available on October 5, the mode delivers an all-new “Challenge the Horde” gameplay mode, a new in-game event, new heroes, weapons, questions, and more!

Challenge The Horde Mode

It all starts in a staging area. You’ll have unlimited time, but limited resources to build a portable horde fort. Once you've designed the perfect fort, exit the staging area and party with up to three friends. Your forts will be ready for action when your team hits the ground. As you survive, you’ll receive more resources and more rewards to Challenge The Horde.

Scavenger Event

With the new update comes a new event llama. The Scavenger Llamas holds four new Heroes, nine weapons, two new Defenders. Earn the Scavenger currency by completing quests and playing the new Challenge The Horde mode. The Scavenger weapon set is delicate, but they’re all cheap to craft.

Fortnite’s “Save the World” PvE mode is now available in paid Early Access, and will go free in 2018. For more information on the update, including information on new Heroes, weapons, questions, and more, head over to the official Fortnite blog.
