The popular Kinetic Blade, previously featured in Chapter 4 Season 2, returns to Fortnite Battle Royale in Chapter 6 Season 1, also known as Fortnite Hunters. This isn't the only Katana available; players can choose between the Kinetic Blade and the new Typhoon Blade.
This guide explains how to locate and effectively use the Kinetic Blade, helping you decide if it's a superior choice to the Typhoon Blade.
How to Find the Kinetic Blade in Fortnite
The Kinetic Blade appears in both Battle Royale Build and Zero Build modes. It can be found as floor loot or within standard and Rare chests.
Currently, the Kinetic Blade's drop rate seems relatively low. The absence of dedicated Kinetic Blade stands (only Typhoon Blade stands exist) further reduces its in-game availability.
How to Use the Kinetic Blade in Fortnite
The Kinetic Blade is a melee weapon enabling swift movement and surprise attacks.
Unlike the Typhoon Blade, which requires sprinting for increased speed, the Kinetic Blade utilizes a Dash Attack to quickly close distance. This attack inflicts 60 damage upon impact. It can be used three times consecutively before requiring a recharge.
Alternatively, the Knockback Slash attack deals 35 damage and knocks back opponents. This can lead to fall damage and potential eliminations if the opponent is sent off a high point.
