Players will be anticipating the arrival of the Fortnite 7.10 update and its patch notes, as the newly announced snowboard vehicle is expected to make its debut in the battle royale title on Tuesday, December 18th. The player versus environment version of Fortnite in Save the World has the hoverboard like vehicle for some time, but Epic Games has now changed the hoverboard in order to fit in with the Winter theme of Season 7 for the game's battle royale mode by having it look just like a snowboard. 
The snowboard hoverboard vehicle that is expected to be added into the game with the patch notes of the 7.10 patch was also teased in the lead up to the beginning of Season 7, as the snowboard vehicle was shown being used by the Lynx Season 7 Battle Pass skin in a teaser image for what was the upcoming period of new content for the title.
