It appears they are taking a step back from patches this season, with only two so far; and not many queued up and ready to go.

Instead, we must rely on Epic Games creators to post the patch notes on Twitter the night before the update.
So, expect an array of patch notes from Twitter shortly before downtime begins.

According to Hypex, two new floppers are 'upcoming', but we haven't seen them just yet.

The Mechanic Flopper and Battle Flopper could well be in the next patch. But what else could we end up seeing in terms of a more...practical item?
New Weapons
This season has been lacking in new weapons more so than compared to previous ones.

So, with a new patch in the works it is unknown if we are going to get any new weapons.
There is a chance we see the leaked 'Dragon Shotgun' that leaker HYPEX found in the files back in June.

New Locations
As the water continues to drop after the massive flood event, old locations are being uncovered.
