Wild Weeks have returned to shake up the Battle Royale meta. 

Wild Week 1: Unvaulted & Unhinged

  • The OG Pump and Combat Shotguns replace the Sovereign Shotgun.

  • The OG Suppressed SMG returns to the loot pool with increased damage, faster handling, and a larger magazine.

  • The magazine size for all the SMGs available in BR has been further increased.

  • The OG Assault Rifle is back and now features better accuracy and a 1.75x headshot multiplier for these Wild Weeks.

  • The OG Hunting Rifle returns in all rarities and its crit damage multiplier is temporarily tuned for one-shot headshots.

  • Balloons have been unvaulted.

Wild Week 2: Vending Spree (Starts March 12)

  • Unvaulted loot from Wild Week 1 will stay in the loot pool for Week 2.

  • All sources of Bars are drastically increased across the Island.

  • Premium vending machines will appear at every location.

  • Get two hours of Supercharged XP for playing each of the full Power Hours on March 14 at 3:30 PM ET and March 15 at 10 AM ET. They both feature a 7-shaped Storm, a Gold Rush rift anomaly for the first circle, increased Legendary POIs, and Glider Redeploy.

More Changes in v39.51

  • The MK-Seven and Deadeye Assault Rifle’s shots are now projectiles instead of hitscan at targets beyond 100m. You’ll need to account for travel time and a slight bullet drop at extreme ranges. Let us know how this feels! 

    • While the Deadeye Assault Rifle has been vaulted in Battle Royale, its change still applies to Reload, Blitz, and other modes.

  • Fixed an issue with Mordecai’s “Oooohhh!” Emote audio playing shorter than expected.

  • The in-game tournament points UI widget no longer overlaps the party information. 

  • Great news for that one friend who’s slow to requeue: we’ve extended the time window after a match ends. 

  • 'Play Again' matchmaking after a game now functions more smoothly so you can get into your next match faster without having to go back to the Lobby. 

Known Issue

  • We’ve identified an issue where you cannot jump through windows broken by assault rifles and snipers. However, you can hurdle through these windows which will allow jumping through them afterwards. This issue is due to be fixed in 40.00.
