The Bouncer Feels Like 'Fortnite' Getting Ready For Its Next Big Step: Creative Mode

Fortnite: Battle Royale got a new item today, and it's a weird one. The bouncer is mostly like the directional bounce pads of yore, but it's a little out of place in the way the game works now. You place it like a trap, and either friends or foes bounce off of it with no fall damage. It has its uses, to be sure, and both streamers and top-level players will no doubt figure out the tactical ins and outs of using the new item. For most players it's a curiosity at best, or like the recently added shopping carts, just something to have fun with: a far cry from the Light Machine Gun.
