Last year, we relayed the news of a controversial feature coming to Fortnite. Fast forward, we now have more details on this feature and its implementation, and just like last time, the information is coming in via prominent Fortnite leaker and insider, HypeX.
Taking to Twitter, HypeX gave the Fortnite community an update on Tactical Sprint, which is still supposed to be coming to the game, although there's still no word on when exactly it will happen. /P>
According to HypeX, with Tactical Sprint, your running speed will increase when you activate Tactical Sprint, and it will only increase when going downhill, and it will be a gradual increase. That said, the faster you go, the more your camera will shake, so there will be a balance players will need to strike to get the most out of the feature.
At this time, it is still unclear if there will be any limits, either via uses or duration. That said, since it's not specified, it's possible there's neither.
Unfortunately, that is the extent of the report. HypeX is a reliable source, but what's here should always be taken with a grain of salt. In the meantime, if Epic Games provides any comment on this leak – which is unlikely – we'll be sure to update the story accordingly. And of course, if HypeX or any other reliable fortnite leaker provides additional information on the feature, we'll let you know all the salient details.
