How to get Starmapping Wrap for free in Fortnite Season 3

An exclusive PlayStation based tournament is incoming later this month for console players and rewards each participant with a free wrap. Alongside it, winners are in for cash prizes and the prize pool this time around is extremely generous.

Fortnite and PlayStation has had a bunch of collabs ranging from tournaments to exclusive skin packs and the console platform rewarding players with free skins as part of their premium membership program. These cosmetics are highly exclusive and still have a good reputation amongst the player base.

However, there is a separate exclusivity for those cosmetics which one can win or reward themselves with upon playing a certain tournament and grabbing those rewards. Several of these cosmetics are in the form of a cosmetic wrap, emoticon or even skins that sometimes never hit the Item Shop for others to purchase.

With the release of the latest Chapter 3 Season 3, players have just started introducing themselves to new tournaments and farming those Arena hype points to reach contender and champion league. While the grind continues, a console only tournament for PS4 & PS5 players is set to arrive later this month where players can get a free cosmetic wrap.

According to recent news, a Fortnite tournament is set to hit the game next week for PS4 & PS5 players only where they will have a chance to win a share of a whopping $116,750 which is placement based. However, there are several amounts allocated to each region depending upon the number of active player it hosts.

Moreover, the mode of tournament will be a regular Solos match with Builds enabled and a traditional Battle Royale will take place with all competitive features enabled. So you can jump in to the game without having to find a partner or team up with someone with bad comms or network lag.

Additionally, players who score more than 8 points throughout the tournament will receive a stunning Starmapping wrap that will be awarded once the tournament ends. The wrap will be available for players to equip in their locker and can only be availed between June 28 to June 30.

The wrap looks identical to several animated wraps that have hit the item shop before as well. However, the PS exclusive wrap will hold its exclusivity as only console players will be able to flaunt them like they do with OG skins like Neo Versa etc.

The popularity of a Zero Build Mode in Fortnite has been growing everyday with new players joining the looped island. Moreover, the mode promises a fun and casual side of the game that loopers had never experienced before.

Fortnite is known for introducing exciting new gameplay elements and its wide range of weapons arsenal to its player base. Though OG Sweats still like to stick to their old ways of cranking 90s and build fight their enemies across the loop, casual players are having their amount of fun in Zero Build mode where they purely focus on their combat skills.

Over the course of the past few months, the popularity of Zero Build mode has increased and has become a staple in the entire Battle Royale gaming community. Nobody would have ever imagined Fortnite without building, and here it stands tall with 5 million new active players since the addition of the game mode.

As loopers continue to vibe in Season 3 with all new things including Reality Tree and Ballers, certain leaks revealed that a popular casual game mode is about to be introduced with Zero Build mechanics very soon.

Zero Build to arrive in Team Rumble in Fortnite soon

According to leaks on social media, Epic Games are working on a Zero Build version of Team Rumble as data for Zero Build “Big Battle” LTM was added with the v21.10 update that dropped this Tuesday. Moreover, this mode will be a standalone mode alongside the regular team rumble and will have similar rules to the earlier one.

However, the question that stands in the minds of loopers is that how will players redeploy themselves if they cannot build themselves to a high ground. Team Rumble is all about infinite respawns in a match where two large teams go against one another and redeploy them off a high ground.

Moreover, when players thought Fortnite was a dead game and were done with most of the game mechanics and weapons meta, Zero Build came as a blessing and saw the return of several old players join back the game. Pros like TFUE, Dr. Disrespect and Ninja started streaming the game again and highly praised the Zero Build game mode.

However, the team rumble mode was the only game mode in Fortnite that was untouched by Zero Build as players like to practice their builds and fights in the island in that mode. But that will soon change for Zero Build players as well as they’d be able to test weapons, complete quests and have a casual fun time playing Fortnite on the island.

Fortnite introduced loopers to exciting new weapons and cosmetics in Season 3 that they have been enjoying ever since it launched. A popular weapon that made the highlights in the trailer for the latest season was the Ripsaw Launcher and it is now in-game for players to experience.

Weapons arsenal in Fortnite has changed over the years that matches the theme of a particular season as well as justifies its use. This season players saw the addition of new weapons like Hammer Assault Rifle and DMR, offering players a high energy combat in every match they play and have grown popular with time.

However, several items like the Grapple Gun, which is not considered as a weapon, has also been a popular new item in-game as players are enjoying it to its fullest. Although with the launch of the Season 3 trailer, players saw a tease at a saw blade like weapon where they can easily destroy builds, vehicles and their enemies in a single shot, if arranged in a single line.

The weapon officially named as Ripsaw Launcher, has now been added to v21.10 update this week and is on the island for players to use. Here’s where you can get it.

Get Ripsaw Launcher and use it in the island now

Ripsaw Launcher is a launcher based rare weapon that can be found in-game now for players to claim and slash their enemies with. You can find a limited amount of these weapons only at a certain POI rather than in Chest Loot or Supply Drops.

To get the weapon, you first need to land north of Logjam Lotus (earlier Logjam Lumberyard) in a Logjam warehouse. Once landed, you will then need to head inside the building with a Logjam sign inside of it.

As you proceed into the building, you will be able to see 4 of these launchers mounted on a wall where you can interact and equip as much as you would like. You can also stack all 4 of them in your loadout.

However, every launcher has only 12 blade shots that you can shoot from it. It suits as the best weapon to shred builds in one single shot and reveal your enemies. Moreover, you can use it to destroy enemy vehicles as one blade deals 100 damage to them.

The reload time for the launcher is 3.5 seconds. Although, once you spin it, it will continue to do so for 10 seconds and deal 25 damage per build and 60 damage to players. The weapon will deploy a blade when fired and will travel in a straight vertical line and keep on destroying everything in its way.

Although this not be an ideal weapon for close combat fights, but if combined with another weapons with timing, could be extremely deadly to your opponents. However, the recoil rate for this weapon is extremely high so its accuracy is highly doubtable.

Fortnite Season 3 has kicked off with loads of fun elements for loopers to enjoy in-game and vibe along the summer themed challenges that dropped with the recent v21.10 update. To add to this fun, vehicles like Skateboards might join the likes of rumored Motorbikes this season as well.

Loopers are having a blast dropping in on the island from the Battle Bus and claiming loot from their Reality Saplings, riding Ballers around Rave Cave, using the recently unvaulted Lightsabers and battle Darth Vader as a boss. However, apart from Ballers, loopers are missing out on fun with vehicles as they enjoyed last season with Tanks and Armored Battle Buses (which are still around the island).

Several speculations this season have been directed towards a motorcycle vehicle that might be added soon to the game, according to several leaks, and will be a part of the summer themed bonanza Epic would bring to the players. However, to double the fun, developers might bring a vehicle similar to Hoverboards, but this time around, like a skateboard.

Fortnite to add Skateboards soon in Season 3

According to recent leaks on social media, it has been revealed that Epic has recently started working on Skating mechanics that bear similarity to sliding mechanics that are currently present in-game. Slower when going uphill and faster when going downhill.

This suggests that Roller Skates or Skateboards might be a possibility to be added as either vehicles or traversal items in-game in the near future or this season. Moreover, it would only make sense for Epic to add these items to Fortnite as the entire summer theme of Item Shop cosmetics revolves around surfing and skateboarding, like the recently released Skate Park Royalty Pack.

The leaked gameplay video above shows the mechanics in action where a player is sliding without crouching and goes on slower as it goes uphill. Moreover, it looks like between the increase of speed, the player is kicking the board with its feet to move faster and can also jump from heights without inflicting heavy fall damage on themselves.

Although this looks like an interesting concept, players are still used to Hoverboards as they still stand as the OG traversal vehicle back from Chapter 1 that loopers used to do tricks on. However, with the arrival of Skateboards in the game, loopers might see the addition of a Skate Park POI or several ramps where loopers can perform tricks and farm crazy amounts of XP.
