Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 3 has been full of glitches and silly bugs, which have led to the cancellation of in-game challenges. Worse, these have given enemies an unfair advantage during matches.

While these hindrances are common in gaming, Fortnite has seen a lot of them this season. This is seemingly ruining the player experience during games. Most glitches come into the game with every new update, which could end up make the game unfair for some.

Earlier, we saw the invincibility glitch where players took no damage, then the whirlpools got disabled on the map, and more recently, motorboats were disabled. Such exploits made the game unfair for many.

How does the infinite items glitch in Fortnite work?

The player has to deliberately follow some steps to get the glitch working in the game, and have unlimited consumables in Fortnite. Here are the steps for the same:

  1. Players have to select the consumable item that they want to make copies of in the game.
  2. They have to take the pickaxe out and pick up the article, and quickly go inside a motorboat and then leave it.
  3. After that, the user has to bleed out and tell their friend to get their reboot card and respawn him/her in the game.
  4. After spawning, the player can open their inventory to see unlimited copies of that consumable.

NOTE: We do not suggest using this glitch in public matches, as it might get the account banned by the developers. Using it in a private lobby with friends would be safer.

For players still confused about how this glitch can be game-breaking, gamers can out heal opponents and get an easy victory royale without any problems, as a result.

Epic Games hasn't responded to this bug yet. However, they have disabled the motorboats so we can assume that they are working on a bug fix, and it will be applied over the coming days in Fortnite.

Here is the video by OrangeGuy on YouTube showcasing the glitch:
