Fortnite Refer A Friend Program Returns With Five Exclusive Rewards For Participating Players To Earn

Epic Games has brought the Refer a Friend program back to Fortnite which provides players with the opportunity to return to the Battle Royale island with their friends and unlock exclusive rewards simply by playing together as a squad. Registration officially opened up on July 19th, 2022 and will conclude on January 10th, 2023 at 11:59PM EST with participants required to complete all of their tasks prior to the deadline date of February 19th, 2023 at 11:59PM EST. Those interested in the program should navigate to the Refer a Friend website and register with their Epic Games account – players performing this step will be known as ‘referrers’ and can subsequently send out up to five invites to their friends.

Once friends have been added, players simply need to play Fortnite with their partners in order to fulfill the requirements for each given task; five in total. Progress is trackable online through the website with players having the ability to work on separate tasks with a different friend; one reward will be granted with each completion – no duplicate rewards or compensation will be granted. In order for players to qualify to be considered a ‘referee’ for the event, they would have to have played less than two hours of a core Fortnite Battle Royale or Zero Build mode (Solo, Duos, Trios, or Squads) in the last 30 days.

The Refer a Friend program rewards – and related challenges – are as follows:

• Create a connection – Double Draw Spray
• Play 1 game in Fortnite with a referee – Immortal Oasis Wrap
• Place Top 16 (6x) with your referee – Oasis Wind Back Bling
• Eliminate 45 opponents with your referee – Oasis Wind Pickaxe
• Gain 60+ levels (Referrer and Referee) – Xander Outfit

Epic Games has provided a detailed FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) page which outlines the entire program and provides answers to some of the most commonly asked questions including those related to the registration process, scheduled timeline, reward distribution, and more. Rewards will be granted to eligible players within one hour of completing the necessary task – subject to change.

Fortnite is available now on Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One X, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4 Pro, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch Lite, Windows PC, and Android devices – iOS compatibility is available through GeForce Now and Xbox Cloud Gaming.
