Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 weapon attachments

New to Fortnite Chapter 5 are weapon attachments. Some weapons come pre-equipped, but others require you to find a workbench to upgrade them. You’ll have a range of different scopes, magazine clips, and more. Here are all the weapon attachments and how they affect your gun:

  • Holo-13 Optics – x1.3 magnification
  • P2X Optics – x2 magnification
  • Suppressor – reduces muzzle flash and dampens audio
  • Muzzle Brake – reduces recoil
  • Vertical Foregrip – reduces ADS (aim-down-sights) recoil and spread
  • Angled Foregrip – reduces ADS time
  • Speed Mag – decreases time it takes to reload.
  • Drum Mag – increases magazine size.

 

These are all the new Fortnite weapons in the game’s current arsenal, but more changes may come throughout the season.
