Fortnite has launched a Ripsaw Launcher week in which the new weapon will spawn and be available anywhere on the map from June 28 to July 5. Although the rare miscellaneous item was first made available last week, Fortnite's brand new Ripsaw Launcher could only be found at the Artemis landmark Chop Shop. However, for the next week, many fans will have full unlimited access to the multipurpose item.
