Fortnite offers in-game currencies and cosmetics that can be purchased and then redeemed with a code. Here is a guide on how to redeem codes.
Since its launch, Fortnite has allowed players to purchase in-game currency (V-Bucks) through real-world transactions via gift cards of the same name. Also, different cosmetic promotions for the game have been available that allow players to earn a skin or pickaxe within the game. As both the gift cards and items come with a code, many want to know how to redeem them. Below is a guide on how to redeem your codes for Fortnite.
