Dataminers have uncovered leaks suggesting the return of unique Sideways weapons in Fortnite Chapter 5. These weapons, which include the Sideways Minigun and Sideways Rifle, originate from the chaotic Sideways dimension.
These weapons can enter a superpowered state for bonus damage, but overheating them causes the player to take damage.
Like in prior seasons, Sideways chests will likely spawn as floor loot across the map. Players can open these chests to acquire Sideways weapons or eliminate opponents carrying Sideways guns.
Players can upgrade Sideways weapons at an Upgrade Bench, provided they have enough Gold Bars. The cost to upgrade varies depending on the weapon’s current rarity.
Beyond battling, Sideways weapons help players gain XP and progress the Battle Pass. This involves revving the weapons into their superpowered states, getting eliminations, and avoiding overheat damage
The leaked return of Sideways weapons signals an exciting weapon meta for Fortnite Chapter 5. Players should prepare to master the risk-reward abilities of Sideways guns when the new chapter goes live.
