This update brings Earthbender Toph, Firebender Zuko, and Waterbender Katara to the Item Shop. The main character Aang is probably saved for the upcoming Avatar: Elements Event Pass, which is launching on April 12.

Apart from this, the blog post on the Fortnite website says that now the Shop has support for multiple cosmetics and items across games, retiring the old Battle Royale-inspired system of colours and tags.

“The Shop has evolved significantly to support multiple types of cosmetics and items across games, so we’re retiring the old Battle Royale-inspired system of colors and tags for cosmetic quality. Different Series of cosmetics – such as the Icon Series or Gaming Legends Series – will still be there to help you find your favorite stuff!,” noted the blog post.

Apart from this, Fortnite launched Chapter 5 season 2 last month. The update brought the Greek gods to the game. It also brought new locations such as Mount Olympus, Grim Gate, and others. The update also included weapons like Harbinger SMG, Huntress DMR, Gatekeeper Shotgun, and others.
