Epic Games has some special celebrations planned for Fortnite’s 1st Birthday!
Fortnite Battle Royale is a FREE 100 Player PvP mode where players are dropped onto an island and must survive using a variety of weapons and through collecting materials. You can play by yourself or with friends in a duo or squad. The last player or team standing wins!
(Battle Royale is a part of the main Fortnite game (the main mode is called Save The World). This ‘Save the World’ mode is still in development and early access to it can be purchased. However, Battle Royale mode can be downloaded and played for free)
Fortnite has been extremely successful for Epic Games. With its success its hard to imagine that the game isn’t even a year old yet. Its amazing what Epic Games has been able to achieve in under a year. To help celebrate, Epic Games have said that there will be a limited time in-game event taking place, starting July 24th. Here is what they had to say:
Happy Birthday Fortnite Fans! Starting July 24th, we’ll be celebrating #Fortnite1st with a limited time in-game event! You can earn special birthday cosmetics by completing birthday challenges and quests in-game. From the birthday Battle Bus to the sploder husks carrying a tasty surprise, we can’t wait to party with you! The in-game celebration lasts until August 7!
Check out some of the unique birthday challenges:
- Deal 1,000 damage to opponents to unlock the Fortnite Birthday! Emoticon
- Dance at different birthday cakes to unlock the Happy Birthday! Spray
- Play 14 matches to unlock 5,000 XP.

These challenges sound like fun so make sure to log in to Fortnite from the 24th July to take part!
Fortnite’s Save the World mode also gets a birthday addition:
