Fortnite: How To Redeem Codes

If you’re like most people, there’s probably a fire burning inside you: a warm desire to buy something from Fortnite’s Item Shop. With its wide range of skins and the Battle Pass, it’s hard to resist the wallet-emptying power the game has. On the other hand, it’s also very tempting to get a gift for someone you like, and a very special gift may come in the form of a Fortnite code.

However, if you’ve got lucky and turned out to be on the receiving end, you might be wondering what to do with your code. If that’s the case, then check out how to redeem Fortnite codes, be it on your PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X | S, Switch.

And give thanks to whoever gave you the code. They’re special. Bear in mind that most pack codes (like the Minty Legends Pack, for instance) must be redeemed on the platform that the packs were purchased for, whereas individual cosmetic items (like one-off freebies) must be redeemed on a special official Epic Games website.
