Fortnite has now received the new “Air Strike” update aka Update 9.3.0 that introduces a canister blowing smoke that signals for new missiles from above. This update should now already be live globally. This is part of a new content update to Fortnite. 

In fact the air strike element calls for actual air strikes to happen. These also look unique in-game. Apart from this update, there is the night-time fighting that can be resorted to via silenced weapons.  

Then, there are other updates such as Classic Squads, Catch Squads, and Blitz Squads – all of which should enhance gameplay. 

Vital patch notes

  • A thrown canister of coloured smoke that calls in a flurry of missiles from above. 
  • Once the canister comes to rest, missiles will spawn after a short delay. 
  • Missiles spawn about 120 meters above the smoke canister. 
  • Missiles aim for random points within a 9 meters radius of the thrown object.   
  • A total of 20 missiles are spawned. 
  • Each missile has an explosion radius of 3.5 meters. 
  • Each missile deals 75 damage to players and 200 damage to structures. 
  • Can be found from Floor Loot, Chests, Supply Drops, Vending Machines, and Llamas. 
  • Drops in stacks of 1. 
  • Max stack size of 2.
