Fortnite is a game that we can play and download for free, but if we want to get skins and add-ons, in most cases, in one way or another, we will have to pay. But there are some "tricks", and we will tell you about them below.

Battle Pass

The Battle Pass offers a multitude of skins and add-ons as we level up. Although the Battle Pass is not free (it costs 950 V-Bucks), we can get it for free after several seasons, in other words, after almost a year of playing without skins.

If we level up to level 99, we can get up to 300 free V-Bucks per season. Therefore, we would need to play 3 full seasons to buy the Battle Pass for free.

In addition, once we have Battle Pass, we will get 1,500 V-Bucks for each season we reach level 99. If we make the difference, we get 550 extra V-Bucks for each season we buy the battle pass and reach the aforementioned level.

Special promotions

With the purchase of some gadgets, it is possible to get exclusive skins and V-Bucks. Normally, these promotions are available with the purchase of controllers, consoles, and smartphones. Ok, It is not exactly free, but if you were already planning to buy the gadget, you can get a gift for Fortnite fans.

Tournaments

Every week, Fortnite holds new tournaments with prizes being handed out to the best players on the continent. Among these prizes, there are sometimes V-Bucks or new skins. Needless to say, this way of getting skins is very hard, we must be very good at playing Fortnite to get free skins in tournaments.

Skins are usually around 1,200-2,000 V-Bucks in the in-game store. If we want to buy skins without spending a penny, first, we have to play for more than a year saving V-Bucks, that is why many players end up spending real money to buy V-Bucks.
