Another week, another Fortnite update, and this promises to be a pretty major one!

Fortnite update today (22nd January): What changes in the v39.30 patch notes

Let’s get started with the collaborations, because boy is it a big one.

Fortnite is teaming up with the American version of The Office, after hints were dropped on Fortnite’s social media pages.

The game is getting two new character skins, and most reports suggest they’ll be based on Michael Scott and Dwight Schrute, though this hasn’t been officially announced.

We may also get an Office POI on the map itself, although this has also not been confirmed.

The update is also rumored to include character skins based on Looney Tunes characters. While the specific characters haven’t been revealed, Bugs Bunny is likely to be one of them.

A new limited time game mode is set to be added today, called Fall Guys Crown Jam.

This limited-time mode is a 3v3 game that Epic Games calls a mix of basketball, football, and an obstacle course. It’s playable until February 9th.

In addition to everything else, the KPop Demon Hunters skins are expected to be back in the Item Shop today, and there might even be a new set of skins released alongside them.

As usual with Fortnite updates, version 39.30 includes various small improvements and fixes. This update addresses issues like slow loading times in the Lobby and Locker, delays when using Emotes, and problems with Rebooting teammates during a match.
