Fortnite is a free-to-play battle royale game developed by Epic Games and played by millions of people worldwide online. The game is free to download on your console via the PlayStation Store, Microsoft Store, or Nintendo eShop. On PC and Mac, you can download Fortnite via the Epic Games Launcher. Even on Android devices, you can play Fortnite via the Epic Games App.
Save The World, Battle Royale, and Fortnite Creative
Fortnite was released in 2017 as an early access title with two parts: Save The World and Battle Royale. Later in 2018, Fortnite Creative was launched:
- Save The World is a paid co-op survival game where you defend objects against zombies with up to 4 players.
- Battle Royale is, as the name suggests, a free-to-play battle royale game where 100 players fight to be the last one standing.
- Fortnite Creative is a sandbox game where players can create their own Fortnite worlds and experiences.
Especially the Battle Royale mode of Fortnite quickly became a huge success, and it is now one of the most popular games in the world.
Seasons in Fortnite
Every four to five months, a new “Season” starts in Fortnite. During such a season, you can enjoy brand new content such as a new map, new game modes, major story events, in-game concerts, crossovers with well-known media franchises like Marvel, LEGO, Dragon Ball, Star Wars, and much more. So, you'll never get bored in Fortnite!

In addition to cosmetics, you can also buy the Fortnite Battle Pass with them. This Pass is valid for the duration of one Season in Fortnite and gives you access to 100 exclusive in-game items.

Yes, thanks to the Fortnite Shared Wallet, which ensures that store-purchased V-Bucks can be used on devices that support the Fortnite Shared Wallet.
Currently, the Fortnite Shared Wallet is accessible on PlayStation, Xbox, PC, Mac, and Android. The Fortnite Shared Wallet is not supported on the Nintendo Switch.
The Fortnite Shared Wallet works as follows:
- If you buy V-Bucks on one of the supported platforms, they are also automatically available on other supported platforms.
- V-Bucks that you have earned through the Battle Pass, Quest Packs, or Save The World, and purchased items are always available on all platforms and are thus not bound to the restrictions of the Fortnite Shared Wallet.
See fn.gg/vbucks for all details on participating platforms of the Fortnite Shared Wallet.

The quickest way to get V-Bucks in Fortnite is to buy them. You can also earn them, but this is only possible via the Battle Pass. And if you are a Fortnite Founder, you can do this via Fortnite Save The World.
Via the Battle Pass:
- Every season, you receive about 300 free V-Bucks if you complete the free Battle Pass. If you have purchased the Battle Pass, you receive an additional 1,200 V-Bucks when you complete the Battle Pass. This way, you can earn up to 1,500 V-Bucks for free each season.
Via Save The World:
- If you have purchased one of the Fortnite Founder's Packs, you can earn free V-Bucks in Save The World by completing daily missions. Unfortunately, these Fortnite Founder's Packs are no longer available since June 29, 2020, meaning new players can no longer earn V-Bucks when using Save The World.
You can buy 1,000 V-Bucks for £6.99. If you buy a higher quantity, you get a discount on the price of your V-Bucks. You receive the most discount when you opt for 13,500 V-Bucks for £69.99.
