Suit up for Chapter 5 Season 4: Absolute Doom!

What's new in Fortnite?

Wielding the ancient power of Pandora’s Box, Marvel’s armoured despot Doctor Doom has transplanted his Latvarian domain to the Battle Royale Island and seized a foothold with his army of loyal henchmen. Once his empowered armour is complete, he’ll reap total control. Doctor Doom and his lieutenants must be defeated - whatever it takes.

Marvel’s War Machine, Gwenpool, and the Wakandan royal Shuri join Captain Jones and Peelverine as first on the scene to defend against Doctor Doom and his forces. They’ll need all the help they can get.

What is the Fortnite Battle Pass?

Buy in-game, earn great rewards 

With Battle Pass, there are 100 tiers of great rewards to unlock in Fortnite Battle Royale every season. Simply buy in-game to start earning.

Cosmetics are no longer directly tied to reaching specific season levels and instead, Battle Stars are earned when you level up. You can then exchange Battle Stars to claim Battle Pass rewards in the order you decide for each tier. You can buy V-Bucks on PlayStation Store to purchase the latest Battle Pass in-game.

Fortnite Battle Pass FAQ

As you level up and claim rewards, more pages of the Battle Pass will unlock, offering new reward options to choose from. Want to claim a specific reward on Page 1 straight away? No problem. Would you rather hold on to your Battle Stars and level up some more to snag a reward on Page 2? The choice is yours!

Each page of the Battle Pass also has a special locked reward only available once all other rewards on that page have been claimed. Scope out your favourites and snag them first as you work to reach Level 100. After claiming all 100 Battle Pass rewards, you can keep exchanging your Battle Stars for a selection of sleek new Outfit Styles within the Bonus Reward pages.

Don’t own the Battle Pass? No worries, all players earn the same number of Battle Stars when they level and each page of the Battle Pass has rewards available for all players to claim as you play.

With a Fortnite Battle Pass, unlock in-Fortnite rewards by earning XP across Fortnite Battle Royale, LEGO® Fortnite, Rocket Racing and Fortnite Festival. 

Did you know you can also earn XP in certain creator-made games? Creator-made games that reward XP have an XP badge in their Discover screen description. Play the way you want to complete this Season's Battle Pass!

What are V-Bucks?

Use them to purchase your all-important Battle Pass or Battle Bundle or, if you’ve got your eye on something in particular, you can spend them on a huge range of cosmetics in Fortnite’s ‘Item Shop’.

‘Save the World’ mode has its own great range of events and unlockable items. The Battle Pass, however, is exclusive to Fortnite’s free-to-play Battle Royale mode.

Battle Royale isn't the only place to earn XP towards your battle pass, though. You can also earn XP from missions in Fortnite Save the World.

Zero Build Mode 

Without building, all players have the recharging overshield as their first line of defence in Zero Build. Slide downhill to avoid enemy fire or use mantling to get the high ground on opponents. Don’t forget to sprint between cover on your way to a Victory Royale!
