New Dual Pistols Added into Fortnite With Update V4.5

Fortnite has seen a multitude of new weapons be added throughout its lifespan and the latest addition to the large roster of weapons for Fortnite is the set of dual pistols that have been added with the v4.5 update today. 

The new Fortnite dual weapons are the first weapon to be introduced into the title that allows players to wield two of the same kind of weapon at the same time. Available in epic and legendary variants, the dual pistols for Fortnite are sure to be a hot commodity as players begin to search them out and see what kind of damage the new Fortnite dual pistols are able to dish out.

Fortnite Dual Pistols

- Dual Pistols Added

- Available in Epic and Legendary variants.

- 41-43 base damage.

- Uses Medium Ammo.

- Shoots both pistols with one pull of the trigger.

- Can be found from floor loot, chests, and Supply Drops.

- Does not use first shot accuracy.

With availability in all forms and the potential to unload a large amount of ammo by allowing players to fire off two weapons at the same exact time, Fortnite's newest duo of weapons could possibly become the next favorite close range weapon to the class of shotguns and move the smgs out of the inventories of players. 

The new medium sized weapons are the latest weapon to be added into the popular battle royale title, as the thermal scoped assault rifle was the previous new weapon that had been put into the vast collection of weapons that players have the ability to use in the game.

It remains to be seen how powerful the new weapons are in the battle royale game, as the v4.5 update is still currently being implemented into the title, so players will have to wait until the servers are brought back online by Epic Games to test out the new dual pistols.
