We have different changes in the preferred item slots, another character on the map, limited game modes and all kinds of bug fixes reported from the community in recent days.
We are going to break down all the changes that have come with patch 17.20 for Fortnite season 7, so that you download it and go directly to test the news.
Fortnite v17.20: patch notes and map changes
Skin Bugha
The Bugha skin has been added to the game files, with each of its items and unlockables, as well as two dedicated limited game modes.
This is the Fortnite World Cup winner who receives their own Icon Series skin pack that you can purchase through the in-game item store.
Automatic inventory system
One of the demands of the community is that with this new configuration of preferred item slots, you will be able to choose in which inventory slot the weapons will be added when you collect them. For example, if you want all the assault rifles that you collect in the game to be in slot 1 and in succession, you can configure it.
