The final pieces land today as new Sprites join Crossbones Isle for Captain's Day. - Author: Voodoo Esports Newsroom - Tags: Fortnite, #src-10001caf08aa, #type-game, #seo-auto ## Key facts Version v43.10 Release date 12 November 2026 Locker Grid Density button: Large, Medium or Small tiles Audio Chest indicator arrows in Visualize Sound Effects PC High Quality Assets option in the Epic Games Launcher Captain's Day 15 November 2026: Mini Miku and Squiplash Sprites Fortnite's v43.10 update, live since Thursday 12 November, did far more than put Buggy on Crossbones Isle: Epic also shipped a long run of quality-of-life changes, PC performance fixes and bug repairs. The last parts of the patch switch on today, Sunday 15 November, when new Sprites and weapons arrive for Captain's Day. ## A Locker that is easier to browse The most visible change is in the Locker. A new Grid Density button beside the Search bar switches cosmetic tiles between Large, Medium and Small. Players with years of outfits, pickaxes and emotes can now fit far more on one screen, while anyone who prefers to inspect each item can go the other way and enlarge the tiles. Navigation is faster too. The Up and Down arrows now scroll a full page of items at a time, and the same behaviour applies in the Emote Wheel. The Toggle Inventory and Toggle Map keybinds have also been tidied up, so they respond consistently and can be rebound. ## Sound visualisation gains a height cue Visualize Sound Effects, the option that draws on-screen markers for nearby sounds, now tells you more about chests. With the setting enabled, the Chest indicator shows an arrow pointing up or down when the chest is above or below you. In multi-storey buildings that removes the guesswork of deciding whether to build up or break through the floor. The option lives in Settings > Audio > Sound. Epic has also given the indicator a minimum opacity of 30 per cent, so it can no longer be faded out entirely. Elsewhere, undiscovered areas of the minimap now have stronger contrast and the Battle Bus has a wider variety of music. ## A new download option and fixes on PC PC players get a new High Quality Assets option in the Epic Games Launcher. It downloads assets to the PC in advance so they do not have to stream in during matches. To turn it on, click the three dots on the Fortnite icon in your Library and open Options, where it sits beside the Epic Quality Assets option added in v42.30. The patch also fixes three PC problems: a memory leak when returning to the Lobby, GPU crashes or hangs on DirectX, and meshes rendering at too high a level of detail in Performance Mode with Mesh Quality set to Low. That last one matters most to players on older hardware, who pick those settings to protect their frame rate. ## The bug fixes players will feel Several fixes target everyday irritations in Battle Royale: - Swapping weapons mid-reload no longer forces a fresh reload when you swap back. - Buried Chests no longer require you to move or crouch to land the final hit. - Controllers no longer drift diagonally on the Old School and Quick Builder presets. - The Hammer Assault Rifle no longer shakes the camera after its magazine empties. - The Chester Sprite keeps its fall damage immunity after you use a vehicle. - Buying XP from a Sprite Dust Console now reliably grants the XP. - Items in a Plunder Port warehouse can be picked up again. On mobile, the Pick Up button now stays available while reviving a teammate, and the game no longer switches back to English after a restart. The Weekly Gold Outfits treasure has its own chest-opening animation, so it is no longer mistaken for Pirate Shop Access, and clipping has been fixed on outfits including Leon S. Kennedy, Venom and Portgas D. Ace. | Change | Where to find it | What it does | | ------------------- | -------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | | Grid Density | Locker, beside the Search bar | Switches tiles between Large, Medium and Small | | Full-page scrolling | Locker and Emote Wheel | Up and Down arrows move a whole page at a time | | Chest height arrow | Settings > Audio > Sound (Visualize Sound Effects) | Shows whether a chest is above or below you | | Indicator opacity | Visualize Sound Effects | Minimum opacity of 30 per cent | | High Quality Assets | Epic Games Launcher > Fortnite > Options | Downloads assets in advance so they do not stream during matches | | Minimap contrast | Minimap | Undiscovered areas stand out more clearly | Main quality-of-life changes in Fortnite v43.10 ## Frequently asked questions How do I change the size of items in the Fortnite Locker? Open the Locker and use the new Grid Density button beside the Search bar. It switches the tiles between Large, Medium and Small, and the Up and Down arrows now scroll a full page at a time. How do the new chest arrows work? They are part of Visualize Sound Effects, found in Settings > Audio > Sound. With it enabled, the Chest indicator shows an arrow pointing up or down when the chest is above or below you. What is the High Quality Assets option on PC? It is a new Epic Games Launcher option that downloads assets to your PC so they do not stream in during matches.
