Fortnite’s new patch brings back the Flint-Knock Pistol

Fortnite season 10 is winding down, but it isn't leaving as quickly as we thought. This week's patch, v10.40.1, will extend the duration of season 10 by a week as well as a bring the Flint-Knock Pistol back to the game.

The Flint-Knock Pistol's return shouldn't be too surprising to most Fortnite players. The weapon was extremely versatile thanks to its high damage and the knockback every shot has. Players can use it to take high ground by boosting themselves into the air or to stop fall damage as they're hurtling toward the ground.

Alongside a few bug fixes, the other major change in this patch was pushing the end of season 10 back by a week. Instead of ending on Oct. 6, season 10 will now end on Oct. 13.

For a look at all of the changes coming to Fortnite in patch v10.40.1 you can find the full patch notes below.
