Here’s all the information you need to know about Fortnite’s 6th Birthday event including a list of quests and rewards.
Every year, Epic Games hosts a Fortnite Birthday event to mark the creation of the popular Battle Royale mode.
This year is no different and Epic Games have announced Fortnite’s 6th Birthday event including what to expect from the event.
A number of times have returned from the vault, we have Fortnite Birthday quests to complete that’ll provide players with free cosmetic rewards, and more.
Here’s all you need to know about today’s new Fortnite update including the birthday event.
New Fortnite Update Patch Notes – 19th September 2023
Aside from the Birthday event, Epic Games has unvaulted the Shell Slide and Bloodhound reality augments. When Shell Slide is activated, you’ll gain Shotgun shells while sliding. With Bloodhound, enemies hit by your DMR shots will be marked for a short duration.
BIRTHDAY CAKE
Who doesn’t love cake? This red velvet delight can be found around the Island and swiftly consumed to recover some Health and Shield.
BIRTHDAY PRESENTS!
Aw, you didn’t think we’d forgotten, did you? Scoop up one of these enticing boxes of mystery and unfurl the ribbon (i.e. give it a good smack with your Pickaxe) to find out what lies inside! Find Birthday Presents! from the ground and Chests.
BALLOONS
Discover one of these deceptively load-bearing inflatables and find yourself immediately more airborne and agile. Balloons can be found from the ground (ironically) and Chests.
JUMP BALLOON REALITY AUGMENT
Are you above finding Balloons? Activate the new Jump Balloon Reality Augment to get a Balloon automatically when you jump, until you reach the max number of Balloons.
Birthday Cake, Birthday Presents!, Balloons, and the Jump Balloon Reality Augment will remain in Battle Royale until v26.20!
As this is a hotfix update, there is no new update to download.
