Fortnite has had an exciting week week so far, with the release of a new update.

You can check out all of the basic patch notes from Epic below.
Keep an eye on FortniteStatus for the latest on Fortnite updates.
Knights Of The Food Court Revealed
A new set of original skins from Epic Games have been revealed ahead of their release via Fortnite's official Twitter account.
The Knights of the Food Court seem to showcase a medieval-inspired twist on the food-related skins that the game has seen over the last few years. This includes Tomato-Head and Durr Burger.
We don't know exactly but we're certain these skins will cost between 1,500 V-Bucks and 2,000 V-Bucks. As for the bundles, which will include Harvesting Tools and most likely a Glider of some kind, that's anyone's guess. We could see a new Loading Screen added, new Emotes, and even a Back Bling.
Custom Battle Pass Skins For Season 7
HYPEX has reported that a new class has been added to the game called "Battle Pass Custom Skin Page".
This sounds like where Maya from Chapter 2 Season 2 would be placed, as she was a character that we could customize by unlocking different elements throughout the season.
Could we be set to see more customizable skins in future seasons?
