With that being said, it's time to explore the Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 8 weapons list.New Weapons!Via @SwiftNite #Fortnite pic.twitter.com/QWjKsWwEv2— Vitthal | Fortnite News ⚡ (@VitthalG17) September 13, 2021Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 8 weapons list: All weapons revealed so far1) Sideways MinigunAs seen in the trailer, this weapon will more than likely be a heavy weapon, which may be predominantly focused around damaging structures more than players. Alternatively, it may feature a high fire rate with low DPS.New Sideways Minigun! #Fortnite pic.twitter.com/UYnIE1r1e8— Kraypex | Fortnite Leaks & News (@Kraypex) September 13, 20212) Sideways RifleThe Sideways Rifle, much like its counterpart the Assault Rifle, will function as the standard in-game weapon for ranged combat.

Based on the storyline, she still has a part to play.#Fortnite #Fortnite The mythic burst assault rifle is back this time it is "Slone's personal Burst Assault Rifle! pic.twitter.com/xrjtxjiOCk— Pop  (@PopPlaysFN) September 13, 20217) Shadow FlopperThe Shadow Flopper will not only heal players, but will also allow them to enter a ghostly form. This may allow them to mitigate damage, or perhaps jump and run faster in-game.Shadow Flopper (cube fish)#Fortnite pic.twitter.com/9b2EIGbb8v— Fortnite News And Updates (@FNdailyUpdates) September 13, 20218) Flight - Knock PistolThe Flight - Knock Pistol doesn't really fit the theme, but nonetheless has been added to the Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 8 weapons list. This is a heavy weapon that packs a punch, however, due to its slow reload time it may become hard to use.Flight-Knock Pistol [which is codenamed the YEETknock] pic.twitter.com/qhwM7UJIIg— iFireMonkey (@iFireMonkey) March 2, 20219) Sideways Shotgun and Sideways ScytheAccording to Fortnite leaker HYPEX, Epic Games is also working on a Sideways Shotgun and Sideways Scythe. Much like in the previous season, players can expect these to be added to the Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 8 weapons list overtime.So you know how there's a Sideways Minigun & Sideways Rifle..? They are also working on a Sideways Shotgun & Sideways Scythe!— HYPEX (@HYPEX) September 13, 2021While the Shotgun is self explanatory, the Scythe will more than likely be a close range weapon judging by its name, or a special weapon that can be purchased from an NPC.
