Here you’ll discover everything you must know about what does the flare gun do in Fortnite, as well as where to find and how to get this weapon.
In addition to yesterday’s patch, Epic Games also released an update for Save The World which enraged large portions of the Fortnite community. This is because fans believe the mode is dead or at least dying thanks to it not becoming free-to-play as initially intended.
