There is so much content to do right now in Fortnite Battle Royale like completing the 14 Days of Fortnite and the week four challenges. However, in the midst of all of that, Epic Games released a new update for players. The second content update went live this morning, bringing a ton of things including the Fortnite Boombox. It is now available for players on all platforms.
The Fortnite Boombox is the latest item to join Battle Royale. It is also rather interesting and unique, offering gameplay benefits unlike anything else. As such, there are some players who are wondering what it’s all about. We’ve got the details on what this brand new item does and how you can get your hands on it.
What Is the Fortnite Boombox?
The Boombox is the new item that players can get in Battle Royale. It was added early this morning (Sunday, December 30, 2018) for all players around the world across all platforms, whether it’s PC, console, or mobile. As the name implies, it’s literally a boombox, which is perfect considering that the world is celebrating the new year this week.
While you might think that the Fortnite Boombox functions similar to the beloved Boogie Bomb, that isn’t the case. Interestingly enough, you actually don’t use it specifically against enemy players. In addition, it doesn’t do any damage against players at all. Instead, its bombastic tunes will break through structures and buildings. Therein lies the purpose behind this very strange device you can wield right now.
You basically want to use the Fortnite Boombox for destroying any structure, including even skyscrapers and other large buildings. As for how you find it, you can find this epic item just chilling on the ground as normal loot and other places like chests as well. It is available right now in the game.
