The Pump Shotgun is officially returning to Fortnite, except for only one day. Will you be jumping on the game to use the weapon?

It is always breaking news when the infamous Pump Shotgun is set to make its return to the popular Battle Royale, Fortnite. However, the weapon very rarely returns for the regular Battle Royale, and only makes an appearance in Reload or OG. Well, it looks like the Pump Shotgun is officially returning to Fortnite.

For one day.

Leakers share news of Pump Shotgun returning to Fortnite

Fortnite knows how to spice things up. That is for sure. The infamous Pump Shotgun has been famous since the game first began. Its incredible power has become a staple within the Fortnite community. Remember double pumps? Only the OGs know that one.

However, the famous weapon was taken out of the actual Battle Royale years ago, and has been replaced with a variation of different shotguns since.

But now, it looks like the popular weapon is returning to the Battle Royale, except it is only for a day. Popular leaker, HYPEX, shared earlier today on Twitter that the Pump Shotgun was making its way back to Fortnite for one day only (tomorrow).

Will the Pump Shotgun be in the regular Battle Royale?

The big question is, which game mode will the Pump Shotgun be in? Well, we know that you can play with the weapon in Creative, and it has already been in Reload. It would seem like the gun is specifically coming to the Battle Royale and Zero Build for just a day.

This means that those who do not have automatic updates will need to turn them on ASAP. The last thing you want is for your game to get stuck on updating while you are trying to play with the famous shotgun.

It will be interesting to see how many past Fortnite players return to the game for just tomorrow to fight with the Pump Shotgun. Will you be hopping on the game?
