Where to get the Ripsaw Launcher in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 3

One of the most exciting weapons from the official Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 3 gameplay trailer is finally here. When the trailer was released, fans couldn't help but notice the disc launcher that appeared in it and how much fun it looked to use it in a match. However, the community was severely disappointed when the weapon did not arrive in the game on the first day of the new season.

Fortunately, the Ripsaw Launcher has finally arrived in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 3. The much-awaited weapon is Epic Games' latest innovation for the Battle Royale game, and unlike other weapons and explosives in the game, this weapon fires a blade that shreds through anything in its way. Therefore, once the servers are back online, every player will want to get their hands on the Ripsaw Launcher.

For now, the Ripsaw Launcher has been spotted in only one location on the entire map. This means that players will have to make sure that they find it before others do. However, the race to get to the all-new weapon will certainly be worth it, given its enjoyable gameplay, especially in the classic build mode.

Fortnite update v21.10 finally introduced the Ripsaw Launcher, and players could not be happier. It is the perfect weapon to shred through builds and reveal enemies hiding behind structures.
