Two new weapon mods debut in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2
The Thermal Scope mod can be attached to any scoped weapon. By aiming down sight, you’ll find that the mod more than doubles the scope view and has a thermal effect you can toggle on or off. Having thermal vision is useful for picking off players who may be hiding out of plain sight, such as in the bushes.
With the Speedgrip mod, you’ll experience faster moving speed while aiming. Gunfights will be more fluid and snapping onto opponents will be a breeze.
Following suit of Chapter 5 Season 1, weapon mods can be attached to your guns at Mod Benches. However, these benches have moved over to new Weapon Bunkers which will unlock in the middle of a match. These Weapon Bunkers are likely to be highly contested, so make sure you’re ready to fight your way inside.
Now you know the ins and outs of the Thermal Scope and Speedgrip weapon mods, you’re ready to customise your arsenal in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2.
