Fortnite’s latest update is here, bringing powerful new Exotic weapons to the game’s Black Market. While combat has always been the heart of Fortnite, securing high-powered weapons can mean the difference between victory and defeat. With this update, players now have a new way to acquire top-tier firepower—but it won’t come cheap.
These new “Lawless” Exotic weapons are part of the game’s ongoing Chapter 6, Season 2 update, titled Lawless, which embraces an outlaw and crime-driven theme. To get their hands on these deadly new tools, players must participate in a game-wide heist against Fletcher Kane, draining his resources to unlock the Outlaw faction’s Black Market.
How to Access Fortnite’s Black Market & Get Exotic Weapons
In a recent post, Epic Games detailed the new Black Market system, changing how players obtain Exotic weapons. Instead of simply purchasing them, players must steal Bars from Fletcher Kane’s banks to earn Outlaw faction membership.
Once the community completes this heist, Outlaw faction members will receive a special keycard that grants access to Black Market backrooms hidden around the island. Inside these secret shops, players will find Exotic weapons, which expand over time as they complete more quests and upgrade their keycards.
The Black Market keycards come in multiple tiers:
- Uncommon Keycard – Grants basic access to Black Market backrooms.
- Rare Keycard – Unlocks better weapons and loot.
- Epic Keycard – Increases Exotic weapon availability.
- Legendary Keycard – Guarantees a Legendary weapon from chests in Black Market backrooms, along with a Dill Bit bonus.
New “Lawless” Exotic Weapons Added to Fortnite
The Lawless Exotics bring unique perks to Fortnite’s weapon roster, offering game-changing abilities for those who can get their hands on them:
- Lawless Slap Cannon – Shoots healing Slap energy at allies, restoring Health and Shields.
- Lawless Blink Pump & Dump – A dual-wield Shotgun/SMG combo that grants Zero Point Dash movement after reloading.
- Lawless Stink Rifle – Fires shots that create a toxic stink cloud on impact.
- Lawless Shockwave Rocket Launcher – Launches a projectile that impulses nearby players upon explosion.
- Lawless Trinity Assault Rifle – Fires four shots in a triangle pattern, trading accuracy for a lower fire rate.
- Lawless Heavy Impact Tracking Rifle – Reveals enemy locations and nearby chests for a brief period after hitting a target.
Fortnite’s Chapter 6, Season 2: Crime and Chaos
If it wasn’t clear already, Fortnite’s latest season is all about crime, heists, and high-stakes action. Officially titled “Lawless”, the season launched at the end of February and has introduced a criminal underworld vibe to the game.
Alongside the Black Market weapons, players have seen:
- New Battle Pass skins, including Sub-Zero from Mortal Kombat.
- New points of interest, such as Crime City and Shiny Shafts.
- An evolving questline, tying into the faction-based Outlaw vs. Fletcher Kane narrative.
Fortnite continues to evolve with each season bringing new mechanics, weapons, and crossovers. With the Black Market system now live, players will be racing to collect keycards, upgrade their arsenal, and dominate the battlefield.
