Epic has announced that Fortnite's controversial glider redeploy mechanic will be making a return with the advent of Battle Royale mode's incoming 7.2.0 update - but major changes have been made since its last divisive appearance.
Glider redeploy, if you're not familiar, refers to the ability to redeploy your glider after its initial deployment from the Battle Bus at the start of a match. Initially, there were only limited occasions where it was possible to redeploy a glider - namely, when using certain items such as the - but Epic briefly tested the option to redeploy at any while airborne last November.
While many praised the game's pacier, more fluid rhythm following the glider change (we're in the pro camp here at Eurogamer), others were frustrated with the inevitable changes to the meta-game. The split response to glider redeploy ultimately lead Epic to remove the option from the main Battle Royale mode, although it remained in others.
