Fortnite Update Brings Back a Powerful Vaulted Weapon
Epic Games dipped into its
Fortnite vaults this week for the game’s latest update and returned with the Flint-Knock Pistol, a weapon that’s come and gone more than once over the past couple of years. The return of the weapon this week in the Patch 15.40 update marks the first time that it’s been reinstated in the game in over a year outside of the occasional event. There’s no telling how long it’ll stick around this time though, so anyone who’s partial to the Flint-Knock Pistol should be sure to get in as much time with the weapon as they can before it’s removed again.
