Fortnite is a free game but within the framework of the Free-to-Play-Modells. So playing Fortnite is free, but if you don’t spend money you won’t be able to take advantage of some of the options. We will detail what is free and what is not.
What is free in Fortnite
In Fortnite we can play as long as we want to play the Battle Royale and Creative modes, which Epic Games does not charge for. Therefore there is neither a limitation still a competitive disadvantage when it comes to playing with friends if you don’t spend money on the game.
Battle Pass
For Fortnite players, the Battle Pass is perhaps the most interesting paid virtual item in the game. It costs 950 V-Bucks for each season and through that we can a large number of skins and other cosmetic items obtained when we level up.
In total we would spend a little less than €8 in V-Bucks, but once we have bought one we can acquire the following ones for free if we accumulate all the V-Bucks that we receive for leveling up to 100. Therefore, it is almost a must-buy whether you want to spend a lot of money on the game or not.
Skins und Add-ons
In the Fortnite Store there are new skins, gestures, dances every day… we can buy them by paying with V-Bucks, but be careful, they are not cheap. Some skins can cost up to 2,000 V-Bucks (€16), but if we really like the character… then you have to spend money.
If we want to buy a lot of skins without spending a lot of money, we can also buy packs or even the Club Fortnite subscribe to. Apart from the fact that we already get a lot of add-ons with the Battle Pass by leveling up.
Fortnite: Save The World
There is a third game mode in Fortnite that is paid. We’re talking about Fortnite: Save The World, a mode in which we play together against bots. Save The World costs €16, but if we buy it, we can get a lot of V-Bucks for the rest of the Fortnite modeswhich somewhat compensates most fans.
