Fortnite Leak Reveals Game-Changing Backpacks

05/24/2018 11:00 am EDT

Jetpacks have finally arrived in the world of Fortnite, but appears that's only the beginning for the hit Epic Games title. A recent datamine found a new 'Backpack' item type and even more interesting is the labels attached to them, hinting at these new items being potential game changers.

Some of the below folders provide a little insight into what we can expect, but seeing backpacks such as the BoostJumpPack, the MedicPack, MissileBattery, and more - the latest findings hidden within the game's findings are definitely something worth noting for players interested in something new:

As per the Twitter account @FNBRLeaks, here's what we know so far:

Intel Pack

• "Find the Eye of the Storm, and then reveal nearby loot and enemies"

Medic Pack

• "Carry your allies to victory with this advanced life saving equipment!"

And the file appears to be able to drop down for the CaninePack, but no additional information has been provided at this time. It's important to note that even though this source is highly credible and the information is found within the game itself, until Epic games actually gives the greenlight via a new announcement - take everything seen with a grain of salt. Though all previous datamined findings have come to pass, that doesn't equal an official confirmation.

In other Fortnite news, don't forget that the week 4 challenges are now live!
