Fortnite v8.30 – Unofficial Patch Notes

Welcome to our Unofficial Patch Notes for Fortnite v8.30! This time the notes will be a bit shorter, as there are not too many new things. We’ll go through most aspects of the game to give you a central overview of things that have been added and that have changed but did not get mentioned in the Official Patch Notes. We’ll also exclude leaks that are already well known.

Here’s how it works:

This is a collection of things we consider interesting going through the files of this Patch. We compare the files to the previous patch, this means things you see here are new. However, as this is datamining, nothing here is set in stone. We will add speculation and thoughts to some points. These will be written between Round Brackets/Parentheses and in italic (check out this amazing example). Let’s begin!

 

Skins:

  • The Slap Happy Emote has received a little update. It can now fail, which will play a different version of the music:

Sets:

These sets are new in the files. Following you’ll see the names that the sets will be called when they are released:

  • “Air Royale” is the name of a new Set with the internal name “Pilots”. It might be connected to the Air Royale game mode which also includes challenges to unlock rewards.
  • “Teed Off” is the ingame name of the new “Golf” Set. With “Air Royale” this might be one of two encrypted Skin Sets.

Upcoming Block:

  • The next Block will be called “Cordial Courtyard” and was created by the player “gonzothewizard”. It’s island code is: 8465-5123-4017

Strings:

Everything you can read as plain text in the game is stored in strings. These could be names of skins, description of skins, names of items, item descriptions… We sadly don’t know what these string exactly belong to but they can give a good hint at future releases etc. In the list below you’ll see all new string excluding the usual leaked skins. We’ll add some speculation to the strings as to what they could mean.
