Free V-Bucks in Fortnite

It is possible to earn free V-Bucks in Fortnite Battle Royale. Epic Games recently change in V-Bucks pricing, making the premium in-game currency more expensive in several countries. Due to this, many players are trying to figure out ways to earn free V-Bucks.

Each Battle Pass comes with 1,500 V-Bucks, but 300 of them can be unlocked for free. The only thing you need to do to earn V-Bucks is to level up and unlock new tiers tiers, which is very easy. If you are unable to purchase V-Bucks, this method is slow but can be very profitable. Considering that each premium Battle Pass comes with a lot of free V-Bucks, you won’t have to worry about this currency after you purchase it once.

The Battle Pass system is great for saving up V-Bucks, but you can also get 1,000 of them with the Fortnite Crew subscription.

We expect more free cosmetics to be available for free very soon. You can also get free items from the Fortnitemares event. To do this, you have to complete the Fortnitemares and Horde Rush quests. There are plenty of items to obtain, these items will be available until the event ends.

You can also unlock free FNCS rewards, these items will only be available for a limited time, so ensure you get them before the event concludes!
