New items, returning items, and Reality Augments in Fortnite patch v24.10

The yearly Spring update typically brings some seasonal tidbits, and this one is no different. Fortnite patch v24.10 introduces three Egg items you can use to enhance your gameplay experience. These spawn in via colored chickens you will find around the map. 

Here’s a description of each new Egg item per Fortnite’s blog post

  • Heal Eggs: These green eggs restore your Health and Shield slowly over time.
  • Hop Eggs: These blue eggs temporarily give you a low gravity effect and also give you Health.
  • Golden Eggs: Grant you gold bars.

On top of the Egg items, Epic Games has brought back the Egg Launcher and added five new Reality Augments.

  • Rail Warrior: Regenerate Health and partial Shield while on grind rails or ziplines, except while in the Storm.
  • Go For Broke: Grants a Charge Shotgun and Flintknock Pistol.
  • Aquatic Warrior: Move faster and regenerate Health and partial Shield while swimming, except while in the Storm.
  • Game Time: Grants the Pizza Party and some Chug Splashes!
