Fortnite Disables Deku Smash Ability Due To “An Issue”
The fear of being smashed into pieces can subside, for now.
Epic Games has revealed that one of the game’s most recent and powerful abilities has been pulled from Fortnite. The Deku Smash ability, which arrived as part of the game’s My Hero Academia crossover content update last week, has proved to be especially powerful in-game.
It seems as though it’s been perhaps a bit too powerful though, with many players seeing huge damage output from the Smash itself. In a tweet shared earlier today, Epic Games announced that it has deactivated the Deku Smash ability for the foreseeable, claiming simply that it’s been removed due to “an issue.” What this issue exactly is, the developers haven’t clarified.
