The patch brings a whole list of new additions and changes to the game, including The Baller, Vending Machines, and other tweaks that fans are very excited about. Fornite 8.10 Updates The Baller is a hamster ball-like vehicle equipped with a boost and grappler for rapid mobility, allowing you to pull yourself from cliffs or swing through the trees. Inside the single-seat ball, you are protected from any damage from your enemies, but the vehicle itself is susceptible to enemy weapon fire. The Baller can be found at the Expedition Outposts and in the pirate camp loot stashes.

The Vending Machines also got an overhaul. They no longer cost anything to activate in Fortnite’s 8.10 update, however, they do self-destruct after you have claimed your item. They are also harder to find now since common and uncommon vending machines have been removed from the game.

Heavy Assault Rifles have been adjusted too, as they now come in common, uncommon, and rare varieties. Epic and legendary versions have already said their goodbye and they can no longer be found. Aside from all these changes, a new LTM, The Getaway, is live already. All the details about these are available in Fortnite's blog. Fortnite 8.10 update also comes with some changes to the gameplay.
