Hello Commanders,

Homebase is back to share what’s coming this week (and next) to Fortnite Save the World. 

Homebase Status Report… Initiate!

Deimos, Accompanies the May Fortnite Crew Pack!

“Travelers beware on the road to the next world” - Deimos
 

• Standard Perk: Corrupted Aura
  • During Shadow Stance, Deal 6 base damage per second to nearby enemies.
• Commander Perk: Corrupted Aura+
  • During Shadow Stance, Deal 20 base damage per second to nearby enemies.

May 2021’s Fortnite Crew Pack features full, permanent access to Save the World along with the skeletal soul-snatching Ninja, Deimos as a new Hero in Save the World. 

Alongside Deimos, May’s Crew Pack comes with all other items from the upcoming Neo Underworld Set: the Sorrow’s Edge Back Bling (a blade from a fallen traveler), the fate-grasping Sorrow’s Reach Pickaxe, the soul-comprised Doomed Echo Wrap, and the Deimos Skull Stalker Loading Screen. 

When it comes to alternate Styles, the Deimos Outfit, Sorrow’s Edge Back Bling, and Sorrow’s Reach Pickaxe come in both black-and-red and black-and-green. Additionally, the Deimos Outfit, Back Bling, and Pickaxe have a ghastly black-and-green glow variant.
 
Grab the May Crew Pack and bring Deimos’ Corrupted Aura to the battle field!

Active and new Fortnite Crew subscribers will receive the Crew Pack plus Save the World access starting at approximately 8 PM ET on April 30. Visit the Fortnite Crew page for more details. 
 

Coming May 1 at 8PM ET - Yarrr Returns for more Swashbuckling, Director Riggs Returns, and The Powder Keg blasts into the Event Store. 

 

Yarrr’s Return!

Blakebeard’s ghost is having trouble fitting in with the other ghost pirates. He has no legacy to draw from and Ray wants to help him out! Adventure into the new Tropical Biome and complete the new Yarrr’s Return Questline to unlock Homebase’s own Director Riggs.


 

Director Riggs, Brings the Efficiency!

“I’m going to handle this one personally” - Director Riggs

• Commander Perk: Direct Threat+

Powder Keg, Lights the Fuse

Drop the Powder Keg on the Husks with this new Bow. This weapon fires a keg arrow that explodes after 2 seconds. That’ll teach the Husks to mess with ye plunder!
 

Coming May 8 at 8PM ET - Buccaneer Ramirez returns to the Event Store! 

 

Buccaneer Ramirez, Locked and Loaded

"Let's swab the deck with these husks." - Buccaneer Ramirez

New Robo-Ray Pack

“A lot of assembly required!” - Robo-Ray

Be sure to grab your Robo-Ray Pack. Available now!

The Robo Ray Pack introduces a new Hero and Outfit, the BluGlo Injector Backbling, Ray’s Smasher Pickaxe, the Robo Ray Challenges, and entry to Save the World. These exclusive Save the World challenges will earn you 1,000 V-Bucks and 1000 X-Ray Tickets. 

Note: The Cosmetic items of this Pack will be shared through Battle Royale, Save the World and Creative game modes. This new Pack series will have no impact on existing Founder daily login rewards or their V-Bucks earned, which is exclusive to early access Founders. These outfits may appear in the item shop in the future.

One final note, Commanders. The Super Ranged modifier has returned to the Scurvy Shoals Ventures zone with some adjustments to their behavior. Pitchers, Lobbers, and Flingers will once again throw three projectiles but have their damage reduced to 50% against players and now structures. Also, Lobber and Flinger projectiles are now spread so that they don’t bombard the same tile with multiple projectiles as often. Finally, the Super Husk modifier will no longer be applied to mini-boss and Chrome Huskies. 

See you in the Scurvy Shoals!
