The Kingsman is a Melee Weapon in Fortnite: Battle Royale, that was introduced in Chapter 2: Season 2.
Functionality[]
The Kingsman has three main uses: Gliding, Attacking, Dodging and Blocking.
Gliding allows the player to negate fall damage, as when held, the Kingsman would act like a Glider. However, it would close after a 2s, where it would not negate fall damage anymore.
The Kingsman can be used as a weapon, dealing different damage numbers depending on each consecutive strike. The weapon could also be charged to deal very high structure damage and decent regular damage. The charged state can be held for up to 5s before the Kingsman automatically performes the charged attack.
The Kingsman could also block damage, by opening it near incoming fire. This would stop all damage being taken until a certain point where it will the break and cause the player to be stunned for 1s.
Attempting to Jump whilst blocking will make the player performe a dodge roll.
It could also be used to harvest Materials, like a Harvesting Tool, but in smaller values.

This section outlines a strategy. |
| Feel free to add tips, tricks and general advice about the topic. |
- Careful when using the Kingsman to negate fall damage, as the Glider it produces is not infinite like a regular one.
- The Kingsman may be able to deflect damage, but it can leave you vulnerable to attacks from other angles.
- It is recommended to use a harvesting tool instead of the Kingsman to gain materials.

Trivia[]
- It is highly likely to be a reference to the movie and comic, Kingsman: The Secret Service, in which both the main character and his mentor use umbrellas as weapons.
- As such, many mistake this weapon for a Collaboration Item, which it is not.
- It is the first Melee Weapon that is not Mythic, aside from the Harvesting Tool.
- It is also the first Melee Weapon (In Standard Playlists) to function as a regular item in the inventory, as the Infinity Blade required the player drop all other items, and the Harvesting Tool is given to all players.
- Before Update v15.50, The Legendary Kingsman was obtainable in Creative by unofficial means.
