Fortnite leak claims Reality Augments to return for Weekly Quests

Fortnite OG proved that players love the return of fan-favorite challenges and items. A trusted leaker has shown that Epic Games’ battle royale has more surprises for those who want to know what Reality Augments were all about.

Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 has amazed players with a boatload of new content and game modes. But even after Epic Games announced the Winterfest 2023 event, a trusted leaker claimed that devs have much more in store for players who love returning mechanics.

While Fortnite fans got to experience Chapter 1’s locations, weapons, and vehicles during Fortnite OG, many gameplay options introduced in later seasons were vaulted to return in Chapter 5. However, Reality Augments haven’t been unvaulted yet for the latest update.

First introduced during Chapter 4 Season 1, Reality Augments worked as a perk system that gave players performance buffs. According to leaker iFireMonkey, users will have to wait until December 19, 2023, for Reality Augments to get unvaulted.
