How to get Free V-Bucks in Fortnite?

Ways to obtain V-Bucks for free in Fortnite

There are numerous ways to get free V-Bucks in Fortnite. The most common method is to farm them by playing Save The World. This mode is considered the oldest mode in Fortnite and grants players V-Bucks upon completion of certain Missions/Quests.

However, keep in mind that this only applies to those who have purchased the Founder's Edition of the game when it first launched. While newer players can partake in Save The World mode, they unfortunately cannot earn V-Bucks. Nevertheless, this is not the only method to get free V-Bucks in Fortnite.

Those who own the Battle Pass are able to get free V-Bucks in Fortnite as well. However, keep in mind that the Battle Pass costs 950 V-Bucks and while that amount is rather high, a total of 1,500 V-Bucks can be earned from it. Some Battle Pass Tiers even offer free V-Bucks to those who do not own it. These can be claimed by reaching certain Seasonal Levels.

The last method to get free V-Bucks in Fortnite is participating in giveaways. These are hosted by community members and are open to all. Players have to perform a few tasks to stand a chance to win. However, keep in mind as this is not endorsed by Epic Games, there is no guarantee that the winner will receive any V-Bucks at all. It's all based on good faith and the organizers keeping their word.

How to use your earned free V-Bucks in Fortnite

There are numerous ways to spend your free V-Bucks earned in Fortnite. Players can save up V-Bucks to purchase the Battle Pass of any given season. While this may not seem like such a good idea, with the capability to earn 1,500 V-Bucks from reaching Seasonal Level 100, it's worth the effort.

Aside from the Battle Pass, players can also use their earned V-Bucks in the Fortnite Item Shop. Here, they can purchase Outfits, Gliders, Pickaxes, Emotes, Back Blings, Contrails, Wraps, and even Music Packs. Depending on the rarity of the cosmetic item, some may cost more than others.

Aside from the Battle Pass and purchasing cosmetics in Fortnite's Item Shop, V-Bucks can also be spent to gift players cosmetic items. Instead of buying them using V-Bucks, they can be gifted and sent to another player's account. This is a great way to show appreciation to a friend in-game or gift them something on their special day.
