The Explosive Repeater Rifle was added to Fortnite in the most recent update. The weapon is one to watch out for and stands apart from other weapons players may get this season.
It is a component of the game’s new summer celebration. The official Fortnite statement on the new item is as follows:
“Live now, the Explosive Repeater Rifle fires rounds that trigger a small explosion on impact. Because of this explosive effect, you don’t have to directly hit your target to deal some damage.
Suspect an enemy’s in a bush? After enough attempts at your target, the bush itself can be destroyed by the explosive damage, leaving your opponent out in the open!”

Spawn on the ground
Almost every item you find when looting has a chance to spawn alongside its ammunition in a floor loot position.
Despite being a brand-new weapon, the update allowed for the Explosive Repeater Rifle to be discovered on the ground.
Chests
Both rare and regular chests include the explosive repeater rifle. Epic and Legendary weapons may be found in rare chests, and there are also variations of those rarities for the new rifle.
The drops are unpredictable, but by opening as many chests as you can, you can easily discover one.
The chests that need keys to unlock are called Holo-Chests. You may visit the lock locations shown on the map and look for the explosive gun assuming you have keys from a chest.
It will cost one key. If there is no key, try again after moving on to the next one.
NPC Nia
The NPC Nia is selling the new weapon. She now possesses the Explosive Repeater Rifle in lieu of the Heavy Sniper Rifle, which was vaulted.
You can buy the equipment and some ammunition from her for a few gold bars if you go there.
