Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 1 saw the addition of brand new weapons to the loot pool. These have either been designed by the Seven themselves or modified to better suit the season's theme.Whichever is the case, they pack quite the punch in combat. However, a few weapons still seem to be missing from the game. One of them is the 'Rift Rifle' showcased during the Chapter 2 end-of-season trailer.Glitched Wlf@Ashysla52808303Has anyone else noticed the gun the foundation is holding in @FortniteGame?Is this a tease?12:36 PM · Dec 17, 2021Has anyone else noticed the gun the foundation is holding in @FortniteGame?Is this a tease? https://t.co/b9diwqHjgDIt was used by the Foundation to take out a group of IO guards on the Bridge.

However, given that it belongs to the Foundation, it may be added in-game once the skin becomes available in the Battle Pass.If this is indeed the case, Loopers should be able to get their hands on the weapon sometime towards the beginning of February 2022. Alternatively, developers may add the weapon in-game when the Imagined Order begins invading the Flipside.What exactly is the 'Rift Rifle' and how does it function?Based on the footage from the trailer, the 'Rift Rifle' can be classified as a combination of a Rift-to-go and a Railgun. When fired at enemies, it opens up a rift that immediately eliminates opponents in its path.GameHut@GameHutYTThe gun used by the foundation that has some form of rift or vacuum effect is the same as the one found int eh battle pass trailer leaked this morning.#Fortnite #FortniteChapter3Leaks #FortniteLeaks #fortniteflliped9:17 AM · Dec 5, 20212The gun used by the foundation that has some form of rift or vacuum effect is the same as the one found int eh battle pass trailer leaked this morning.#Fortnite #FortniteChapter3Leaks #FortniteLeaks #fortniteflliped https://t.co/E1TgvzRhrNGiven Seven's technological advancements, they could easily have been able to convert a harmless rift-to-go into a potent energy weapon. Much like the rail gun, this weapon should also feature a short power-up delay before firing.What other weapons are yet to be added to Fortnite Chapter 3?The 'Plasma Spike' is also yet to be added to Fortnite Chapter 3.

However, it is unlikely to open a rift to eliminate multiple enemies at once.It will function as an energy pistol, dealing heavy damage to a single target. However, it's unclear if it will use particular ammunition or have unlimited ammo like Kymera weapons.
