Shadow Bomb
Shadow Bomb was announced last week as a new item that would take players into the shadows. But the new Shadow Bomb is different and creates the player invisible for six seconds. During that time, the player can gain the ability of double jumping and wall jumping as well. It will also increase the movement speed, but they can’t attack, build, or loot for that time.
Epic Games also implemented two other changes in the v8.51 update like audio fix (Jetpacks sounds playing louder than actual) and the UI improvement in Limited Time Modes.
Duet (Large Magazine Assault Rifle)
It’s a high damage assault rifle that’s good for sustained fire due to its large magazine capacity. It will available in the Weekly Store from May 1 at 8 PM ET until May 8 at 8 PM ET.
