Tac Shotgun and two other leaked Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 weapons in development

1) Tac Shotgun

Shotguns have always been a part of the game since the early days. This weapon type delivers devastating damage at close range. Those unlucky enough to get caught in the hail of slugs will be on the receiving end of a lot of hurt.

Here are the expected stats for this upcoming Tac Shotgun:

Magazine Capacity: 6 slugs
Reload Time: 4.2s to 3.6s and reloads the whole clip at once
Fire Rate: 1
Damage: 79/84/88/93/97
Headshot Multiplier: 119/126/132/139/145

2) Unknown DMR

DMR's bridge the gap between snipers and assault rifles. They are useful at mid- to long-range. While the meta for Chapter 5 Season 1 has been snipers, this may change next season with the introduction of a new DMR. It is currently being playtested by Epic Games.

Here are its expected stats:

Magazine Capacity: 7
Reload Time: 2.8s - 2.1s
Fire Rate: 1.5
Damage: 58/61/64/67/70
Builds Damage: 63/67/70/74/77
Headshot Multiplier: 102/107/112/117/123

3) Unknown Sniper

The most intriguing of these leaked Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 weapons is an unknown sniper in development. There's not much known about it, but given how deadly they have been in the current season, this one will likely follow suit.

Here are the expected stats for the weapon:

Magazine Capacity: 2
Reload Time: 5.1s
Fire Rate: 0.8
Damage: 88 - 109*
Builds Damage: N/A
Headshot Multiplier: 140*

Note: Stats mentioned for all leaked Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 weapons are subject to change.
