As experienced Fortnite players know, new seasons often bring unexpected bugs alongside fresh content. In Chapter 2 Season 8, a notable glitch has emerged, allowing players to shoot while hovering—a potential game-changer confirmed by multiple community reports and video clips.
With Season 8 live for some time, enthusiasts have been exploring the map, uncovering leaks and exploits amid the new features. This hovering shoot glitch disrupts standard gameplay, giving airborne players a firing edge over those on the ground.

Popular YouTuber GKI spotlighted this issue with footage of shooting from a glider, sparking widespread confirmation from the community. While Epic Games works diligently to maintain balance amid Fortnite's massive scale and rapid updates, such oversights are inevitable in a game of this magnitude.
To replicate: Head to Steamy Stacks and approach a steam tower. Glide in using a witch's broom to levitate upward, then cancel the broom mid-ascent to trigger the hover-shoot state. Note: These glitches, while innovative, should not be exploited to ensure fair play for all.
