Fortnite update 11.30 PATCH NOTES: Server downtime, Snowball Launcher, Snow map, more - Express

UPDATE: Fortnite update 11.30 patch notes have finally been revealed in full.

The new update introduces split-screenfunctionality, as well as the ability to preview what's in the item shop through mobile devices.

The foundations have also been laid for the Star Wars and Christmas events. Full patch notes can be seen further down the page.

ORIGINAL: Fortnite fans can download update 11.30 on PS4, Xbox One, PC, Nintendo Switch, iOS and Android.

As is the norm with numbered updates, the latest Fortnite patch is a big one, weighing in at over 4GB on PC.

Needless to say, it's accompanied by server downtime, which runs from 9am UK time until around 11am GMT.

The news was announced by Epic Games on Twitter, although without any teasers about what to expect.

"Hey, everyone!" Epic tweets. "v11.30 is on its way for tomorrow. Downtime begins at 4 AM ET (0900 UTC). Stay tuned for updates when downtime ends."

While the full list of patch notes is yet to be revealed, data leaks have given us a pretty good idea about what to expect.

With Christmas coming up, Epic is getting ready to release the Snowball Launcher, and will also cover the entire map in snow.

Leaked loading screens (at the top of the page) also confirm the festive theme, and will likely be available as rewards during the event.
