Fortnite has been update to 7.40. The latest content update brings with it the new Driftboard and the Limited Time Modes “Driftin'” and “Catch!”

The Driftboard lets you shoot and perform tricks in style while you float around the map. The ‘Driftin’ Limited Time mode pits two teams of 32 players against each other while riding on Driftboards! The ‘Catch!’ Limited Time Mode forces players to only use grenades and other throw-able weapons against each other.
