The Mythic Infinity Blade was added to Fortnite in v7.01, and in a future patch, Epic will remove the item’s ability to harvest/build.
Epic Games said it is applying changes to the Infinity Blade item over the amount of discussion and feedback from Fortnite players.
According to a post on the official Fortnite reddit, the intent with Infinity Blade was to provide a weapon with “inherent risk to balance out the great capability it provides.”
The ability to harvest/build removes a great deal of that risk, according to the developer. By taking away the ability, the hope is Infinity Blade will feel “risky to have, but still satisfying to wield.”
“After this removal, we’ll continue to monitor the Blade’s effectiveness and make adjustments as necessary as well as communicate those changes,” reads the post.
Fortnite players can expect the Infinity Blade changes to occur in the v7.10 update.
