- [Narrator] Fortnite Battle Royale season five
has just begun.
And it has totally changed almost everything we know
about the game.
From teleporting rifts to vehicles
that we can actually drive,
it looks like season five is going to bring some of
the biggest changes yet to the game.
But that all raises one big question.
What about the new weapons for the latest season?
In today's video we're going to be looking at
the top 10 weapons that may be coming in season five.

You can't just do...both
No you can't just do one...
Number 10. Break action shotgun.
You'd think that, considering shotguns have been
the strongest thing in the game for pretty much
as long as the game has been out,
Epic would be a little bit hesitant about adding
even more shotguns into the mix.
But it looks like we are totally wrong about that.
The break action shotgun is said to be
a legendary and epic class weapon.
Essentially this shotgun looks like a sawed off
double barreled shotgun.
Which means it's going to let you shoot
two shots really quickly
and then you're going to have to spend some precious time
reloading your weapon.
Adding a shotgun like this into the game
is a pretty interesting move considering how cluttered
the shotguns already are in Fortnite.
The pump action shotgun gives us
the most insane amounts of damage
but fires really slowly to make up for it.
While the heavy shotgun and the tactical shotgun
both have slightly higher fire rates,
but also have slightly less damage to make up for
the increased number of shots you can pull out.
While this gun can fire two shots really quickly,
it also then has to reload straight away
making the effective rounds per minute much slower
than you might initially expect.
Hopefully you have to land both shots of this gun
to kill someone otherwise I expect
it would end up being pretty over powered.
Number nine. The nailer.
When you think about it there aren't really any cray weapons
in Fortnite Battle Royale at the moment.
It's a game where zombies can fight alongside people
with tomatoes for heads, and super villains.
Yet all the weapons in the game are strangely ordinary.
Like would you really expect the most effective weapon
in the insane world of Fortnite Battle Royale,
where the only vehicle is a shopping cart,
to be a SCAR assault rifle?
It doesn't quite seem to fit for me.
And Epic might be about to change that forever.
The nailer is a gun like we've never seen before
in Fortnite Battle Royale.
It is an assault class weapon that will only drop
at the legendary rarity.
It will be slowly firing with large amounts of damage.
And like most guns in the category,
it will have a magazine size of 30 rounds.
What makes this so far, pretty standard assault weapon
different from any others?
Well, it kinda fires nails instead of actual bullets.
Who knows how they plan to balance the ammo of this thing
when it gets added to the game,
but it should be pretty awesome all the same.
Number eight. Precision rifle.
When I first saw the precision rifle get leaked
I thought it would just end up being the FAMAS
that recently got added to the game as a purple
and gold weapon.
But then the precision rifle
didn't end up being that gun at all.
While the gold and purple burst assault rifle
is clearly modeled after the FAMAS,
the precision rifle is instead modeled after
what looks to be a G36C.
This is so interesting because the guns seem
to be sharing a very similar function.
The files note the precision rifle to be
a burst assault rifle that fires tight bursts allowing
for precise targeting in mobile mid-range engagements.
The rifle is also supposed to deal good damage
at the cost of consuming a lot of ammo.
So that sounds almost the same as the FAMAS, right?
Well, the difference is that the precision rifle
is actually a green, blue and purple weapon.
Also in the statistics for the weapon,
the precision rifle actually has the same fire rate
as the standard assault rifle
which instantly makes it better than
every other burst rifle in the game.
Number seven. Hammercrush.
The hammercrush is an assault rifle with a difference.
And honestly I am actually pretty scared of this weapon
being added to the game.
This gun is going to be legendary class only
but it's also probably going to end up being one of
the strongest guns in the game.
Why is the gun going to end up being
so overwhelmingly over powered?
Well the hammercrush is basically what happens
when a mad scientist decides to combine a shotgun
and an assault rifle into one weapon.
The hammercrush is literally a shotgun assault rifle
combo weapon.
It's described as a slug gun, a rifle that fires slugs,
with high damage.
It also has good accuracy
but it has a very low rate of fire
and a pretty small magazine size
with only eight slugs in the magazine.
Now the slugs are the main difference between the gun
and other shotguns in Fortnite at the moment.
Other shotguns all fire pellets
and each individual pellet does damage
in a certain spread out earlier.
With a slug there's no pellets.
It's just one big slug of metal
that gets fired out of the weapon.
I guess the closest thing I can think of
is the KSG shotgun from Call of Duty: Black Ops II.
It can fire shots over a long distance
and has the one-shot killing power of a shotgun.
Frightening.
Number six. Monsoon.
I am pretty sure that everyone can agree pistols are
basically useless in Fortnite Battle Royale at the moment.
Even the dual pistols aren't exactly that strong
and I'd take pretty much anything over them
if I had the opportunity.
Unless you pick up a pistol right at the beginning
of the game and manage to take out some no skin
who was trying to kill you with their pick ax,
then there's pretty much no use for the pistols
that are currently in the game.
But with the addition of a weapon called the monsoon,
that might all be about to change.
Much like the hammercrush the monsoon is another
combination type of weapon.
Only this time instead of combining shotguns
and assault rifles
it's combining pistols and mini guns.
Basically the monsoon is the result of someone asking
what would happen if you combined
the two worst weapons in the game?
It is basically described as an absurdly fast
fired pistol that has a large magazine
and dishes out ridiculous damage at short to mid-range.
However it also has bad accuracy, eats up a lotta ammo,
and has a mini gun style spin up before firing.
I mean look at this thing,
it's like someone shoved a mini gun barrel into a pistol.
It's insane! It's overly done!
I might as well use a sub machine gun or something.
Number five. Space pistol.
The space pistol is described in the files as high tech.
And I don't think I can really argue with that.
It looks pretty much like nothing we have seen
in the game already.
As if it had come straight from the future.
Supposedly it only has seven rounds in each magazine
and it fires balls of energy that do area of effect damage.
Basically it sounds like and RPG that fires energy balls
instead of rockets.
And it's a pistol instead of a rocket launcher.
Ooh!
It might seem pretty unlikely that Fortnite would add
something like this into their game.
I mean pretty much all of the weapons in the game so far
are fairly realistic.
Well they're realistic if you ignore things like
the boogie bombs, and the impulse grenades...anyway.
This would be the first time we've had a truly
futuristic weapon come to the game
but really it's the perfect time.
Season five is all about time travel
and worlds colliding with each other.
And if that's the case it gives Epic some greater freedom
to bring things from the future just as much as the past.
Eh?
Number four. Flair gun.
I'm not sure why you would want a flare gun
in a game like Fortnite Battle Royale.
To me it feels like a flare gun would be
really dangerous to use.
Like if you shot it,
everyone would know exactly where you were.
Because that's what flare guns are for.
You wouldn't even need them in squads or duos
because pretty much anyone that plays the game
either has a mic so they can talk to you,
or at the very least a speakers or a set of headphones
turned on so they can hear not just you,
but the game they're playing.
And even if you aren't together, you purposely did that.
No one gets lost.
Unless a flare gun did something like
summoning a supply drop out of nowhere.
Then I think it would be pretty useless.
Not that my opinions have stopped Epic Games
from putting a flare gun into the files.
The description says that the gun fires a signal flare
to alert other people.
And also it doesn't consume any ammo.
The last time we had a weapon that didn't consume any ammo
in Fortnite Battle Royale was the crossbow.
And we all remember what trash that was, right?
Number three. Auto shotty.
We've already talked about how strong shotguns are
in Fortnite Battle Royale.
And with season five they've kind of made them
even stronger.
Now when you fire a shotgun, the pellets of the shotgun
will no longer be randomized
when they come out of your gun.
Which means that you can now basically master the bloom
of your shotgun shots.
Not only that, you get notified of how many pellets
actually hit someone when you shoot them with a shotgun now.
So you can't complain about your shots hitting
and basically doing no damage.
Anyway, shotguns got a pretty minor buff.
But if you thought that was the end of Epic's plans
for making shotguns better
then you are unfortunately pretty wrong.
The auto shotty is exactly what it sounds like.
An automatic shotgun
that the in-game description claims fires a wide spread
at an extreme rate of fire
which can also decimate crowds.
It seems like a pretty dangerous route for Epic to take
when it comes to shotguns in Fortnite Battle Royale.
They're a big enough problem already.
Do we really want people to have the ability
to easily wipe a squad with an automatic shotgun?
If they're on my team it's okay.
Number two. Triple Tap.
Why is it number two?
That makes no sense.
Thank you, tip your waitress.
When you think about it, compared to other weapon
types in the game, sniper rifles are pretty left out
at the moment.
Most of the other weapon types in the game
have multiple different versions of the weapons.
But the sniper rifle category only has three guns.
And it's only if you count the hunting rifle
in with the other snipers.
I kinda think that the hunting rifle is
more of a high-powered single shot AR
than an actual sniper considering it has no scope.
Luckily for all of you guys who are super in love
with picking people off in stupidly far ranges
Epic Games might just have something new
to tickle your fancy.
The triple tap.
This weapon is the unholy combination of
a standard sniper rifle and a three burst assault rifle.
It fires deadly accurate three round bursts
which deal incredibly high damage.
But that also consumes ammo incredibly quickly.
Number one. Super shredder.
Automatic shotguns, break action shot guns.
What possibly could be more over powered than these
fast-firing damage dealers in Fortnite Battle Royale?
Well how about the supposedly upcoming super shredder?
It takes the close range idea of a pellet shooing shotgun
and then creates some sort of Frankenstein's monster
by merging it with a sniper rifle.
According to the game's files
the super shredder is a cluster sniper rifle.
Basically it's a hybrid shotgun sniper
that fires tight groupings of pellets
that deal heavy damage.
It has five rounds in a magazine
and is accurate at longer ranges.
From the images we have and the gameplay from the gun
in the save the world campaign,
we can see that it kind of works a little similarly
to the hunting rifle.
You can't aim down the sights,
but that doesn't mean it isn't going to be deadly accurate.
So that was our video on the top 10 Fortnite weapons
that may be coming in season five.
It would be pretty cool to see guns like the space pistol
come into the game.
Especially considering all the crazy time travel
and other world stuff going on in Fortnite at the moment.
Ah, wait a minute, wait a minute Epic Games.
You mean to tell me that you built a time machine
out of a port-a-fort?
What kind of guns would you like to see in future
Fortnite updates?
