Fortnite v12.60 update has finally been rolled out on 20th May 2020 after a minor unexpected delay yesterday. The Fortnite update prior to v12.60 brought in a series of major changes in the game, including the introduction of Party Royale Gamemode, the "Heavy Sniper" nerf and the revival of OG 'Risky Reels'.
