Epic Games has released the full set of patch notes for Fortnite update 26.10 with a second round of collabs with My Hero Academia headlining this update

Fortnite update 26.10 is finally here following downtime earlier today, marking the first proper update of Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4. The major news from the patch is that Epic Games has brought the popular anime series My Hero Academia back to the game. Fortnite x My Hero Academia first happened back in December 2022 during Chapter 4 Season 1 with the main characters All Might, Izuku Midoriya, Ochaco Uraraka and Katsuki Bakugo to the game as skins, with Midoriya's Deku Smash ability being added as a Mythic item.

Now with Fortnite Update 26.10, Midoriya, Uraraka and Bakugo are being joined by some of their esteemed classmates from Class 1-A as Shoto Todoroki, Mina Ashido, and Eijiro Kirishima are joining the Battle Royale. For anyone who has watched the series (or read the manga) you'll know that Todoroki is a big deal, which is why Epic Games has decided to add a new Todoroki's Ice Wall Mythic.

Less prominent but still interesting is the return of the Pizza Party item, which makes the TMNT Fortnite skins seem even more likely.

Fortnite Update 26.10 patch notes

The following is the full list of Fortnite Update 26.10 Patch Notes as posted by Epic Games on the Fortnite website:

Freeze out your foes

Putting your enemies on ice has never been easier: get your hands on Todoroki’s Ice Wall item and you’ll gain the power to summon glacial shields on a whim! The Ice Wall has a massive pool of Health to protect you and your party from harm, and it won’t melt until it’s been completely destroyed. Because it’s so durable, be sure to choose your placement carefully!

While the Ice Wall boasts enormous defence capabilities, it’s plenty useful when attacking too. Drop one in the midst of a brawl and watch as everyone is knocked back with icy feet, causing them to slip and slide around. The Ice Wall item will be available until the end of the Season, giving you plenty of time to master its chilling effects.

How can you wield Todoroki’s powerful quirk in the first place? Ice Walls can be found from the ground, regular and Rare Chests, or All Might Supply Drops:

One for all, once again

From the hero who always bounces back, Deku’s Smash has returned! This powerful ability can one-shot foes all the way from Delaware to Detroit if used properly.

Of course, there's only one man who can grant the legendary power of One For All. To get your hands on Deku’s Smash, you’ll need to crack open an All Might Supply Drop! Deku’s Smash will be available until v26.20.

A hero's journey

Saving the world isn’t easy, but completing Quests is a bit more doable. Complete Deku’s Quests and Todoroki’s Quests for XP. For completing six total My Hero Academia Quests, you’ll instantly level up!

Become a hero!

Wish you could join the #1 ranked Hero Academy? Now’s your chance to fight as three of U.A.'s top heroes-in-training as they land in Fortnite. All three Outfits are available now in the Item Shop.

More in v26.10: Pizza Party is back!

Hungry for something pipin’ hot? Piper Pace is on the case, having delivered unvaulted Pizza Party boxes all across the Island. Inside each box sits eight gloriously cheesy slices to share with your party, or you can scarf ‘em all down while you hole up in a bush. We won’t tattle.

Each Pizza Party slice will restore Health and Shield simultaneously. The recipe’s been changed up a bit, though, as each slice now restores less Health but more Shield, with the Shield cap being 100.

The Pizza Party item can be bought from Piper Pace, picked up off the ground, or looted from Chests. To accommodate Pizza Party’s return, Slap Splash has been vaulted.

Game time!

Want a Pizza Party delivered directly to you? Whether you’re catching some rays down at Relentless Retreat or chilling in luxury over at Sanguine Suites (assuming you’ve defeated all the guards), there’s a delicious pie with your name written all over it. Activate the Game Time Reality Augment to instantly receive a Pizza Party plus a thirst-quenching pack of Chug Splash!

Reckless SMG reload Reality Augment

Are you one to unload the full clip? That’s what automatics are for, after all. Activate the Reckless SMG Reload and let your shots fly quicker than ever! This new Reality Augment causes SMGs to reload faster whenever you reload on an empty clip.

Chapter 4 Season 4 super level styles

What’s a heist without some jewels? In the Bonus Rewards section of the Battle Pass tab, bonus Styles for Battle Royale Chapter 4 Season 4 Battle Pass rewards have been available to unlock for players who progress past Season Level 100. With v26.10, Chapter 4 Season 4’s Super Level Styles have been added as bonus rewards!

Inspired by vampire Kado Thorne’s hoard of riches, five Outfits have received the Heisted Jade, Lost Amethyst, and Yellow Diamond Super Level Styles. The lucky Outfits to receive these fabulous facets? Well of course Kado himself, but also Piper Pace, Fish Thicc, Mae, and Antonia. Begin unlocking these Super Level Styles after reaching Season Level 125.

Competitive notes

Major bug fixes

And that's everything for this update. The next update will probably arrive in the next two or three weeks based on previous schedules.
