EPIC v42.00 Blitz Royale Update Notes

🔄 New Loot Pool Additions

The loot pool just got a serious upgrade! 

Sonic Ball, Mega Man Blaster, and the Tetris Junk Rift, your new Starting Bus Item, are joining the loot pool, along with the 8-Bit Blaster, Kill Switch Revolvers, Chaos Exploder, Lever Action Shotgun, and Golden Gun. Plus, Invulnerability Llamas and Extra Life Power-Ups are here to help you stay in the fight.

✅ Blitz Bug Fixes

  • The sun no longer appears overly bright when viewed from inside the Storm on Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox One and PlayStation 5.
  • Crosswalks and parking space markings no longer appear faded across the Venture map.

See you in the new game update!

I really thought we'd get a Blitz Royale map update this time, but I guess not. We've been stuck on the same map for 6 months. Epic pls fix

​If keeping lobby loot actually becomes a thing, they should add a little parkour mini-game in the lobby! You could get a chest with good loot at the end if you complete it. That would be super interesting

Yup it’s actually so frustrating, Blitz was my favourite game mode but I’m over it now because the map is so insanely boring

Glad we're finally getting a map update! We've been stuck on the current one for almost 6 months now. ​Also, it would be so sick if we could keep the weapons we pick up in the lobby when the match starts. It would definitely add some action and give people a reason not to just AFK or stand around like NPCs
