Fortnite update 10.31 just went live, and it's one of the most boring patches the game has seen in quite some time. It adds the Party Hub feature for social gatherings, but don't expect any major gameplay changes. Read the full patch notes below courtesy of a blog post from Epic Games.

Bug Fixes
Players with their reticle on stairs will no longer enter edit mode for an unintended building piece. In v10.30, we addressed an issue in which players would sometimes enter edit mode for a building piece that their reticle was not on. However, players may have still found themselves entering edit mode for a different building piece than intended if their reticle was on stairs. This has been resolved. Removed black borders on the iPad 2018 Pro. The main feature for Fortnite update 10.31 is the Party Hub, which is essentially a glorified chatroom for those who play mostly on mobile platforms. In place of the Party Chat systems that exist on console platforms, it's basically a lobby designed for grouping up before entering an actual game. Squads can chat there and ring Llama Bells to get in touch with others who might already been in another match. While mobile users could previously use texting or Skype to organize some Fortniteaction, the Party Hub lets players do everything in-game.
Given how thin Fortnite update 10.31 is we imagine Epic is already hard at work on something more substantial for update 10.40. This would normally be a week for a smaller Content Update, but this time there isn't even a new weapon to show for it. Unless you're a real heavy Fortnite mobile player, nothing really changed for you this week.
Fortnite is available now on PS4, Xbox One, Switch, PC and mobile.
