With the arrival of "Fortnite" Chapter 2 Season 5, players can expect huge changes to the game. Aside from a new map and Battle Pass, various new vaulted and unvaulted weapons added on the loot pool can be expected in the new season.
After ending the "Fortnite" Chapter 2 Season 4's Nexus War with the arrival of Galactus, players gear for new game experiences with a mix of new and old arsenal. Here is a list of all vaulted and unvaulted weapons for "Fortnite" Chapter 2 Season 5.
'Fortnite' Season 5: Unvaulted Weapons in the Loot Pool
As a brand new season starts, it is exciting to see old favorite weapons making a comeback. Here is a complete list of unvaulted weapons to begin the new season:
- Heavy Assault Rifle
- Tactical Shotgun
- Tactical Assault Rifle
- Double Barrel Shotgun
- Charge Shotgun
- Storm Scout Rifle
- Balloons
- P90 (Epic/Legendary)
- Pistol (Epic/Legendary)
- SMG (Common-Rare)
While many players may not like seeing the Charge Shotgun get unvaulted and the Pump Shotgun vaulted, they will sure love to see the return of the Tactical Shotgun as well as the Double Barrel Shotgun.
Similarly, Balloons and the Storm Scout Rifle have also made a comeback, although the latter was never a fan favourite. In Season 4, most SMGs were removed, but they will now return with common SMG as well as a P90, which is an Epic/legendary SMG.
'Fortnite' Season 5: Vaulted Weapons in the Loot Pool
However, players are surprised to see some favorites being placed in the vault. Here is a complete list of all weapons being vaulted at "Fortnite" Chapter 2 Season 5:
- Epic/Legendary Pump Shotgun
- Legendary Combat Shotgun
- LMG
- Burst Assault Rifle
- Fire Trap
- Epic/Legendary Tactical SMG
- Scoped Assault Rifle
- Revolver
Many players will surely be saddened to find the Epic and Legendary Pump Shotguns being vaulted since it has not long since they brought back to the game. However, since they were vastly overpowered, Epic Games' decision is just logical to keep the balance.
Meanwhile, although many players reported that the Scar Assault Rifle has been vaulted, Real Sport 101 confirmed that it was not vaulted in Season 5.

The 'Fortnite' Crew Pack
After being leaked recently, Epic Games has officially launched the Crew Pack in a blog post. Aside from receiving the Battle Pass for the full Season, these are the perks and rewards that each "Fortnite" Crew will receive every month:
- 1,000 V-Bucks, which "Fortnite" Crew members can spend on their favorite Item Shop content
- New Crew Pack, which is exclusive for the "Fortnite" Crew and includes a new Outfit Bundle.
For December, members of the "Fortnite" Crew will receive the Crew Pack skin called Galaxia as well as the Fractured World Back Bling and Cosmic Llamacorn Pickaxe.
'Fortnite' Battle Pass
To get a Battle Pass, players would need to pay 950 V-Bucks. However, they may also earn enough V-bucks throughout the season to avoid shelling out $9.50 to get the Season 6 Battle Pass. Moreover, they could also choose a Battle Pass Bundle option.
While Season 5 will revert to original "Fortnite" gameplay, seven new characters will be featured in the Battle Pass such as Star Wars' The Mandalorian and Baby Yoda/The Child.
"Fortnite" Chapter 2 Season 5 is not the first time Epic Games has worked with Disney's Star Wars as the game already featured in December 2019 in an event to promote Star Wars Episode 9: The Rise of Skywalker's release.
"Fortnite" is available on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
