Inflate A Bull Fortnite Disabled: The new season has so many features and still, Fortnite doesn’t fail to surprise us. They are still bringing newer features to amaze us. You can also look at the Alien Nanites, Alien Parasites, Mothership, etc. And this time they bring us the Inflate-A-Bull which is another usable item (and was disabled). Here, we’ll see about the new Fortnite inflatable bull added in the recent v17.10 hotfix.
The Inflate-A-Bull is a usable item. You can use the item to inflate yourself into a bull. There are also some interesting facts about its features.
What is the Inflate A Bull in Fortnite?
The Inflate-A-Bull is a simple usable item. You can use it to move around easier. Whenever in a fix just use the item and you can scurry off from your opponents. The concept is simple, you use it to float around like a giant inflatable bull. And the name itself suggests that you can move around like an ‘Inflatable’.
Fortnite adds it recently during its recent hotfix yesterday:
Mari reporting – Got a hot saucy update on emergency evasion tech!
IO agents have nicknamed it the Inflate-a-Bull!
Bounce around like a totally normal-looking cow… bounces… around…? 🐮#HotSaucersLeakshttps://t.co/QP28yNC7JJ pic.twitter.com/58sX1tTlOx

Interesting Facts about the Inflatable Bull:
So you might be wondering what are some of the interesting facts/features about this item? Here are some of the facts that will shock you:
- The Inflatable bull can squash parasites!
Now parasites can be annoying to deal with every time. You can’t always be looking around for a campfire or river when in a tough competitive round. Use the Inflatable bull to get rid of them.
- Evade your opponents
However, you’re not just turned into an inflatable cow in Fortnite. You can actually move around much faster. Furthermore, you can bounce around anywhere you want to. According to Fortnite: You can go a lot faster downhill rather than trying to move on the ground.
- In the storm? Roll within Fortnite with the inflatable bull in style.
Riding down the hill and covering larger distances will be so much easier with this item. So, if you’re stuck in the storm any time you’ll find it a handy item for such times.
- It is not invincible.
Unfortunately, there have to be some cons for such an item. You can be popped in mid-air by someone and will have to let it recharge before you can use it again. Good thing is, it will still be reusable.
- Fall Damage? Nah, Forget it.
Yes, an actual item (besides the Alien Nanites and Glider) that now enables us to negate the fall damage. Since you can use it mid-air.
- The sniper problem.
Now, you might be wondering how to evade an opponent standing in front of you with a shotgun or far away with a sniper. It’s easy, just use the Inflate-A-Bull and you’ll be able to actually tank their shot!

Where to Find the new item Inflatable Bull?
There are no specific locations of the Inflatable Bull. However, (Fortnite mentions this in their recent hotfix) you can still find them in IO chests and normal chests all over the map. They can be found in the Mystic chests, Magic chests, Legendary chests, Loot drops, and Supply drops as well.
Another way to obtain the item is from the Rick Sanchez NPC for 25 gold. With this new item, there is also a Fortnite Code Redeem for the new Lebron James Skin. Find out how to redeem it here.
The Inflate A Bull in Fortnite Disabled: But Why?
Apparently, Fortnite disabled the Inflate-A-Bull. Their support detected some issues in the gameplay/glitches of the new item. You can also see it here:
The Inflate-A-Bull has been disabled in the competitive game modes (Arena and Tournaments) while we investigate an issue.

3 hours later they also updated us that it is going to be disabled and they’ll let us know soon when it is re-enabled. However, it seems unlikely that the Inflate-A-Bull will return sooner to Fortnite. So far, it has been 14 hours since Fortnite has been working on the issue.
There is also a glitch where players are actually using the Inflate-A-Bull and yet their characters are showing up. You can also see the Reasons to why the inflatable bull was disabled in the video below:
What else is in the Fortnite v17.10 July 13 Hotfix?
The Fortnite v17.10 July 13 Hotfix brings us one of the many new features in-game. The Inflate-A-Bull a new usable item (like the Alien Nanites). Another astonishing feature Fortnite added just for the sake of the Alien theme.
Besides this Fortnite also explains the name changing of Holly Hatchery. Apparently, the ‘Aliens’ have changed the name of Holly Hedges to Holly Hatchery. And this can also hint towards the next Fortnite update/hotfix.
So, they are going to be hopefully breeding their own species on the planet. The biome that you can see in Holly Hatchery is the same as that of Alien Nanites. So we can be seeing more of such biomes across the map and a significant increase in the number of parasites.
Fortnite also mentioned the nurturing of parasites at these locations. So you can expect more parasites around these areas as well. Fortunately, next time you want a parasite you’ll know where you want to head to.
Overall, the Inflate-A-Bull was not a bad item at all in Fortnite. There seems to be some glitches in the gameplay as we have mentioned before. Finally, the new inflatable bull is really distinctive and we expect Fortnite to add it back soon. For more Fortnite updates you can stay updated with us.
