If you’re struggling to see the image above, we’ve broken down all of the new weapons alongside their stats below.

Charge Shotgun

  • Rarity: Common/ Uncommon/ Rare/ Epic/ Legendary
  • Reload Time: 5.5/ 5.3/ 5.0/ 4.8/ 4.5 seconds
  • Magazine Size: 3
  • Damage to Player: 8/ 8.5/ 8.9/ 9.3/ 9.8

Ocean’s Burst Assault Rifle

  • Rarity: Mythic
  • Reload Time: 2.3
  • Magazine Size: 30
  • Damage to Player: 37

Kit’s Shockwave Launcher

  • Rarity: Mythic
  • Reload Time: 2.7 seconds
  • Magazine Size: 6
  • Damage to Player: N/A

Kit’s Charge Shotgun

  • Rarity: Mythic
  • Reload Time: 4.3 seconds
  • Magazine Size: 5
  • Damage to Player: 10.2

While the damage for the standard Charge Shotguns may seem low, these will get more powerful the longer your charge the shot up for. As such, we’d highly advise always charging the shot up, as opposed to just press the shoot button and simply hoping for the best.

The three new mythic weapons will all be acquired by defeating the Henchman ‘bosses’ just as the Boom Bow, Skye’s Assault Rifle, and Meowscle’s Pew Pew rifle were last season.

That’s everything you need to know about the new Fortnite Season 3 weapons. For more handy guides, head on over to our wiki. Alternatively, you can check out more of our coverage on the game below.
