Here’s a list of known issues in the v8.00 update.

  • Purple vending machines offering bandages for 300 wood.
  • Sprint by default not working correctly.
  • Leave party button missing.
  • User interface issues.
  • Tapping on Driftwood in the Battle Pass causing crashes (mobile).
  • The airheart skin’s hair not showing right (iOS).

These issues will likely be fixed in the coming days, since Epic Games is usually on top of smaller issues that aren’t too game-breaking or prevalent across multiple platforms.
