Epic Games have announced the Fortnite Share the Love event which includes Overtime challenges and rewards, double xp and competitive.
UPDATE: Overtime challenges will begin on 13th February
They start February 13th, just in time for Valentine’s day! But if you enter a support-a-creator code anytime between now and Feb 22nd you’d get the Cuddle Hearts wrap when it arrives in next week’s build. Enjoy! #ShareTheLove https://t.co/kbUDtOBNoq
