Fortnite v16.20 Patch Notes | Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 6 Updates & Patches

Epic Games has informed us that there will be a new patch released at some point in the near future. Some of the most notable issues players are facing will be fixed, including the missing NPC #17! Check out the full list of patch notes below.

Fortnite v16.20 Patch Notes

Before we begin, we'd like to note: Because these changes are still only listed as Fixed in the next patch update on the Fortnite Community Trello Board, we can't confirm that they're all perfect, nor that they're the only changes being made to the game. Still, you can refer to this list for the most significant changes coming with this patch.

Release Date

This patch reached the staging servers on April 7, 2021. Patches are usually released about a week after they have reached this stage. Barring any issues, we can safely assume we'll update to v16.20 around April 16.

Bug Fixes

As we state above, these are the issues marked on the Fortnite Community Trello Board as having been fixed in the Next Patch Update. Epic typically does not release official patch notes until the update is released, if at all.
