Fortnite Chapter 4 is here, and in the first season a new list of weapons has arrived that you can capture and, with a little luck, carry to victory. While some items in this season’s loot pool return from previous seasons and chapters, each new chapter of Fortnite has also introduced brand new items and weapons that have never been seen before. Chapter 4 continues that tradition. Here’s a rundown of all the new Fortnite weapons and items in Chapter 4 Season 1, plus a look at what else has been vaulted or unvaulted.
Fortnite Chapter 4 Weapons
Fortnite is adding a ton of new weapons to the game with the launch of Chapter 4. Here you’ll find images and details for all of them, but first let’s familiarize you with their names. Brand new weapons making their Fortnite debut include:
- Ex-caliber rifle
- Thunder shotgun
- Maven Auto Shotgun
- Red eye assault rifle
- Twin Mag SMG
- Tactical pistol

The Ex-caliber rifle fires an explosive blade, which is a bit like the Boom Sniper, but decidedly pointed. The two shotguns should appeal to different playstyles. The Thunder version acts as a pumpy and fires two shots at a time, while Maven Auto the variant is faster for players who like their shots at a scary rate of fire.
The Red eye assault rifle includes a red dot sight for easier target acquisition – let’s be honest, headshots and Twin Mag SMG comes with a great rate of fire and a massive clip size. I guess speed is the name of the game this season as well Tactical pistol is automatic and quick to empty, so aim true.
Time will tell which of these new weapons become players’ favorites, but visually at least they’re all fascinating, with two of them appearing to come from The Seven’s personal arsenal. I guess some wars rage today too, don’t they?
