Fortnite update schedule revised, Valentine’s & Spring events delayed

4.3
An updated release schedule for Fortnite has been provided by Epic Games, which makes note of a week delay for version 2.5.0.

With the current issues Fortnite has experienced since the last big update, Epic Games has posted a revised release schedule for updates 2.5.0 through 3.1.0.

“Due to our internal concerns regarding the stability of our v.2.5.0 update, the Valentine’s and Spring it On events will be delayed a week,” said Epic. “That means we won’t be landing the dates stated in our State of Development v1.

“We will be extending the current storm event in the interim in our 2.4.X update next week. easonal Gold Reset will happen in v.2.5.0. We want you to be able to play the game and feel this is the best bet for getting a stable patch out to you.”

Don't really see how a crossbow would fit in regarding damage seeing as snipers take a few shots to elim and so realisticly a crossbow will also be a few shots however with a slow reload time between each shot along with no scope (assuming there won't be otherwise it's just a sniper) it's going to be shit.

im excited for these event too bad they will be dealyed

damn, a new weapon "Cupid Crossbow", already know its going to have a snipers accuracy but hopefully its a one shot kill or 2. not really excited for anything else though.

Still need to fix some thing before worrying about Holiday and Seasonal events, it's nice to see they plan on doing these things though.

Glad they are putting holidays in the game events.

I can't wait for this Valentine Day one.

If they could patch the building problems on ps4, and the complete lag you get when trying to switch items and building materials, that would be amazing. I love this game, they just need to jump on the big problems. Simply cannot wait for these events though!

Some awesome sounding updates but they really need to patch the glitches and fix the errors.

This is a pretty cool update to look forward to, will be interesting to see what the Love Story is about, but in all honesty i doubt my Girlfriend will be letting me on the Xbox on Valentines day lol. Ill for sure try my best because im absolutely loving Fortnite at the moment so i dont really wanna miss any cool updates or events. Valentine's themed Heroes sounds pretty dope, so yeah really hyped for this update.
