With each new season of Fortnite, you may see pretty big gameplay changes in each update. In the latest update in Fortnite Season 4 V26.10, you will no longer be able to use Slap Juice, a fan-favorite item. This item is known for its regenerative abilities. However, removing this item can change how some play, while other items have also been unvaulted.

Of course, new abilities are always a great thing to obtain, and if used well, can dictate the flow of the game. However, is the removal of this rare item a good gameplay change? Let’s see what Slap Juice has to offer for Fortnite players and why it’s a big gameplay change.

What new gameplay changes will the Fortnite update bring?

As each new season makes its way to Fortnite, bringing along new weapons, items, and gameplay changes. These changes can either bring in new things or they can vault them, removing them from the game until the next season or update. In the Fortnite V26.10 update, developers have now vaulted Slap Juice.

As mentioned in a Twitter post by Hypex, you can see all the new gameplay changes made in the update.

Slap Juice is one of the rare consumable items you can obtain in the Fortnite Battle Royale. This item will give you 15 Health and regenerate lost Energy for 50 seconds. This item is a great way to restore your health and can be stacked up to six times, resetting Energy each time. Unfortunately, the consumable item is no longer available.

Players who relied on the item will have to change the way they play the game. Fortunately, Slap Splash is still in the game, even though it seems that Epic Games intended to vault it as well.

However, though you may miss your beloved Slap Juice, there have been new loot pool changes and additions. Two unvaulted items will be returning to the game: Pizza Party and Deku’s Smash. The latest addition to the loot pool is Todoroki’s Ice Wall. Todoroki Shoto is one of three new characters from My Hero Academia collab, along with Kirishima Eijiro and Ashido Mina.
