Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3 is just around the corner and now the first new weapons have been leaked, including one that will dominate the meta in the new season.
Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3 will launch on June 9, if all goes according to plan. So it's no wonder that new leaks are appearing on the internet every day.
In addition to the new Battle Pass skins, even the first weapons have now been leaked and one in particular has the internet going crazy: It is a mythical drum shotgun that will probably make life difficult for many players next season.

But the mythical drum shotgun is causing the most excitement. The old Fortnite hands out there probably remember the standard version of the weapon from past seasons. In fact, the Shotgun first appeared in Chapter 1 Season 9!
This is a fast firing, fully automatic shotgun capable of high DPS in close and mid-range combat. Unlike most other shotguns, the drum shotgun reloads all cartridges at once.
And now, according to HYPEX, a mythical version will return in the new Season. In terms of stats, the new drum shotgun is said to deal 73 body damage and 109 damage on a headshot, have a slower rate of fire and 3s reload time.

Most players are pretty hyped on the new weapon, others believe it will be too powerful and therefore will be nerfed anyway.

We will have to wait until the weapon is actually in the game to get a final picture of it. Until then, stay hyped and enjoy the last days of Season 2.
