Fortnite Birthday Challenges

Players interested in taking part in the Fortnite Birthday Celebrations will be pleased to note that there are some challenges for you to complete. These challenges are not hard, they’re mostly just to get you to play during the event, and therefore shouldn’t need any kind of guide or advice.

These are the Fortnite Birthday Challenges:

• Play matches (10)
• Dance in front of different Birthday Cakes (10)
• Outlast Opponents (500)
• Gain health or shield from Birthday Cake (50)

As simple as they are, all you should need to do if you want to complete these challenges and win your free rewards is log on and play the game, and you should get them naturally.

Fortnite Birthday Rewards

So far, we know Fortnite will be giving away a free “Cakey” wrap, a birthday themed candy colored gun wrap that functions more like a celebration and future reminder of an event rather than just a cool wrap to have. Additionally, players will get access to the new Fortnite emote, “Take the Cake.” From what we can see from the emote description and appearance, it looks like a character holding a cake about to blow out the candles.

Other rewards include a large cake for your Fortnite character to wear on their back, and a Birthday Cake spray.
