Epic Games has announced that Fortnite surpassed 3.4 million concurrent players this Sunday on all platforms. This new record also brought some server issues that Epic addressed. In addition, the team has released a brand new patch for its title.

Fortnite patch 2.4.2 adds new skins and introduces the Crossbow. This weapon comes in both Rare and Epic variants and fires Arrows, which are an unlimited ammo type. The Crossbow can be found from floor loot and treasure chests.

This update also removes harsh high-frequency sound from the Chomp Jr pickaxe and brings a number of fixes.
