First Footage of Fortnite Grappling Hook Item and Getaway LTM

During the broadcast for the third day of the PAX West Fortnite Summer Skirmish $1,500,000 tournament Epic Games showed off the first official gameplay footage of the new Grappler grappling hook item and Getaway Limited Time Mode (LTM). 

The gameplay footage of the Getaway LTM showed off what players can expect to experience in the new game mode that will be coming to the world of Fortnite. Supply drops will drop onto the map of Epic Games' massively popular battle royale game where the objective of the players will be to find and open safes that come from the supply drops. Each safe will contain a jewel that teams must pick up and make it back to the getaway bus. The first four teams to getaway with the jewel will be crowned the winners. 

Also shown for the very first time to the Fortnite community was the brand new Grappler grappling hook item that will be bringing a whole new gameplay element to the battle royale game. The Grappler grappling hook item can be found like any other piece of loot and carries 15 shots with it. Once it is shot at a structure, the grappler grappling hook Fortnite item sends the player through the air making it an excellent tool to traverse the landscape of Fortnite quickly or close the distance between an enemy that is in a tall structure. 

You can watch the entirety of the first ever gameplay reveal of the Grappler grappling hook item and Getaway LTM below.
