Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 1: Movement changes and new items

The all-new and much-awaited sliding mechanic has finally arrived at Fortnite Chapter 3. Players can now evade enemies or move faster while sliding. Apart from this, there are several new ridables, including the return of the Quadcrashers as well as ridable wildlife.

Players can also find new items on the island, such as the Guzzle Juice that slowly restores health back to 100 and Med Mist that can be sprayed on players and teammates to increase health. The new island might also see frequent cyclones and lightning apart from the usual storms.

This pretty much sums up everything new players will encounter in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 1. "You’re now re-oriented for the flip side — so drop in with confidence!"
