It looks like Fortnite’s Driftboard is finally heading to the game

Fortnite mysterious Driftboard could finally be on its way to the battle royale. Several months after the futuristic new vehicle was originally announced, there’s been no official word on its existence, but dataminers seem to have uncovered footage of the new item in action. In appearance, the Driftboard looks pretty similar to the Snowboards introduced as part of Season 7, but crucially, they hover very slightly off the ground. Footage of the item in action was reportedly uploaded to Instagram by dataminer JH9, but the related video appears to have been taken down. Nevertheless, information about the item has now been uncovered. Much like the Quadcrasher, you’ll be able to use a speed boost, which you can direct up a hill or ramp in order to get some sweet, sweet air. More importantly, however, footage appears to show players firing from the Driftboard, making it the only vehicle that allows its driver to engage in combat - larger vehicles like the ATK require somebody to be riding shotgun if you want to be any kind of threat.
