The Rail Gun, a Fortnite Battle Royale veteran from Chapter 2 Season 7, makes a comeback in Chapter 6 Season 1, albeit with slightly reduced damage. Despite the nerfs, it remains a powerful weapon, potentially tipping the scales in your favor.

While not excessively rare, its absence from NPC vendors means you'll need to rely on your looting skills. Fortunately, Chapter 6 Season 1 offers plentiful opportunities, from the loot caves of Magic Mosses to the hidden vaults of Nightshift Forest.

Found in Epic and Legendary rarities, the Rail Gun requires a bit of luck. Forget NPC shops; your best bet is scouring Chests and Floor Loot. With abundant loot sources available, keep searching—that victory royale might just depend on finding one.

Rail Gun Stats in Fortnite

This high-tech rifle fires a single, powerful shot after a charge-up. Ideal for eliminating enemies behind cover.

Charging takes approximately 3 seconds, with an additional 3-second hold before automatic firing. The inability to cancel a charging shot, combined with enemy movement, makes landing hits challenging.

Despite impressive structure and headshot damage, the Rail Gun's slow charge and single-shot nature make it less reliable than other options, such as a Hunting Rifle with Heavy Bullets. However, its unique gameplay makes it worth trying out.
