Today’s Fortnite v15.21 update has shaken things up again in the Battle Royale game, which added Predator and a brand new Mythic Item.
The game has long been subject to weekly updates, which means that the content is slightly refreshed some weeks, and on others things can change a little more dramatically.
On January 20, after the latest patch was introduced, it is fair to say that not many things have been adjusted.
In the absence of official patch notes, which have been vaulted since Chapter 2 first began, we have summarized the changes already confirmed by players and leaks.
Fortnite v15.21 patch notes
Predator
Predator is the latest crossover character to arrive in Fortnite, now available to fight at Stealthy Stronghold location. The skin also comes to the Fortnite Item Shop, along with some cosmetics – like a pickaxe.
New mythical item: predator mantle device
One of the biggest and most exciting elements of Predator’s arrival is the new Mythic Item that adds to the game. The Predator Cloak Device is now active in the game, and once found and activated, players can use it to become invisible.
Check out our complete guide here to get one. It’s pretty easy to reach.
New Guests
After the v15.21 update, even more questions were added to the Battle Pass for season 5.

Bug fixes and other changes
According to the official Fortnite Trello board, a number of things have changed – including general issues and things that specifically affect the BR mode.
General top issues
- When playing Fortnite, players cannot create system-level parties that include players on both PS5 and PS4.
- The Jumpshot outfit is missing his facial hair.
- The Banner menu may not respond to input from the controller, causing players to have trouble modifying their Banner with an administrator or the Banner not updating properly.
- We’re investigating an issue that causes players to experience a long loading screen after completing a session on PlayStation and Xbox consoles.
- The sound effect of certain actions, such as opening a chest or hitting a weak point, can be delayed.
Battle of Royale
- In competitive playlists, players do not have access to their persistent stock Bars. Instead, they get a fixed amount at the beginning of each game. It is intended. However, your final total bars in competitive playlists may appear in the lobby instead of your persistent inventory. This is a visual matter only.
- The weekly Legendary Quest to ‘Get Headshots’ is not always visible after completing the first phase of the quest.
- Players can suffer damage in the air if they fall inside a car.
- Players and spectators may notice inconsistent camera behavior or stuttering after being near a car they were recently driving.
- Total bars appear as 0 in a match.
- Assets that appear invisible in Performance mode alpha.
- Game freezes when you go to the Compete tab on PlayStation / Xbox.
- Sand tunneling has been temporarily shut down.
As is the case every week with these unofficial patch notes, it is a constant animal. If we find anything that has been altered and not included in the Fortnite v15.21 patch notes, we will update you as soon as possible.
Until then, jump in and see for yourself! Remember to thank the bus driver …
