| This game is still under active development. Be aware that any unused content you find may become used or removed in the future. Please only add things to the article that are unlikely to ever be used, or went unused for some time. If they do get used, please remove them from the page and specify in the edit summary! |
| This page sucks. If you could make it suck less, that would be awesome. Specifically: This page is a mess. |
In Fortnite: Battle Royale, 100 players are dropped onto an island and pitted against each other, with the ability to craft structures and pick up weapons scattered around the island!
Also, the amount of skins and taunts you can unlock. It's probably the only piece of media where John Wick does the Carlton Dance on Thanos' dead body, while Ninja and Travis Scott high five and Master Chief does the Gangnam Style. That alone should be a selling point.
| To do: There are many more unused assets within the files. |

Other unused items include these Victory Umbrella variants
In the 5.40 update, an untitled Outfit with the filename "K-Pop" was added to the game and was removed in the 6.20 update. It was later reused for the iKONIK promotional skin. The K-Pop skin was reimaginated in the 14.60 update as the Dream Team bundle, adding new styles based upon the original famade concept art. However, the face of the man from the original K-Pop outfit was nowhere to be seen.

In the 8.40 update, an Outfit called Gemini was added to the game, which had 2 edit styles; blue (default) and red. It was removed in the 9.20 update to avoid resemblance to Raeve Maeve from Paladins: Champions of the Realm. It was later reused for the Astro Assassin Skin.

There is a "Dark Skully" Outfit in the files that has never been released. It is a counterpart to the regular "Skully" Outfit

She also has featured icons meaning it will most likely be an Item Shop Outfit.

It comes with the Back Bling "Dark Skully Satchel" which is a counterpart of the "Skully Satchel" Back Bling

TBD Music
During Season X, A music pack named "TBD" was added. The music it calls is the Mission Intro from Fortnite: Save the World. When modded in game however, it plays the default lobby music.

Unused Maps
Some unused maps exist in early versions of Fortnite: Battle Royale
Internal Name
The Chapter 1 map (As well as the internal name) for Fortnite: Battle Royale is referred as "Athena" in the game files. The Chapter 2 map is referred to as "Apollo"
Unused Graphics
A hearty amount of placeholder graphics.
Unused Weapons/Consumables
Unused items that you were supposed to find in a match, like guns or shield potions.
Storm Tracker
During Season 4, an unfinished item called the Storm Tracker was mistakenly added to the game. The item would show where the next storm circle was. The icon was the same backpack icon from Save The World and the model was the Rose Team Leader Back Bling - very likely to be a placeholder. The item was repurposed as a sniper in season 9 and a purchasable intel from NPCs during Chapter 2 Season 6
Medic Pack
Around the time the Jetpack was added, a model was leaked. It appeared to be a semi-futuristic medical backpack. Unlike the Storm Tracker, no coding or usability was found. The concept might have been reused for the Bandage Bazooka in Chapter 2.
Unused Battle Bucks currency
There was a scrapped "Battle Bucks" currency back in Chapter 1 Season 1. The description was: "Currency earned by playing the Battle Royale game mode." This might had been recycled as Gold in Chapter 2 Season 5.
Unused weapons
There are a ton of test/old weapons in the files. Most of these are just Mythic weapons from old seasons (most of them got reused in the Arsenal LTM), collab weapons that don't work anymore (like Thanos's gauntlet and the Marvel superheroes' items), or scrapped/test weapons such as a Gnome Gun (that shoots gnomes), a Charge rocket, a Shotgod, "ElephantGarlic" (a weird device that shoots electric projectiles, apparently used for Battle Lab), and a Tinstack weapon, that functions similar to Fuse's Ultimate from Apex Legends.
