It’s Raining V-Bucks. Fortnite V-Bucks cards are now selling at select retailers across the US. These stores include Game Stop, Best Buy, Target, Walmart, and CVS.
Once a gamer buys a V-Bucks card, they can head over to the Fortnite website and turn the physical card into digital currency. The V-bucks can be used on any device!
As of right now, V-bucks cards are only being sold in the US. Canada, Mexico, and Germany should be able to stop by at their local retailer to buy some soon, however.
A bunch of gear is hitting stores this holiday season, as well. At select retailers in the US, Canada, Ireland, UK, France, Italy, Australia, New Zealand, and Germany, Fortnite gamers will receive a code for the Merry Mint Pickaxe when they purchase an official Fortnite product.
A lot of people have been complaining that the retailers they have gone to don’t have the Merry Mint Pickaxe code. Epic games has commented that there is an overwhelming demand, so most retailers are out of stock. The Fortnite developer is doing what they can to replenish the stores.
Those are the only countries that can get the Merry Mint Pickaxe code. Epic Games doesn’t have any plans for supplying other countries right now.
Epic Games has truly done a fantastic job with their micro-transactions. As one probably knows, Fortnite is free to play on any device. Because of that, as well as being one of the pioneers of the Battle Royale, Fortnite has become one of the biggest games ever.
Epic Games has capitalized on the vast amount of Fortnite players by creating must-have accessories.
They have been able to develop a product that gamers will spend their hard-earned money, or allowance, on. V-bucks are as good as gold as far as some Fortnite players are concerned.
By coming out with things like outfits, items, emotes, and gun skins gamers can buy, they’ve made millions.
Epic Games also has utilized seasons to create a revolving door of items. Every season they feature new items for a limited time. This always keeps the store fresh and exciting for gamers that love decking out their Fortnite character and account.
Not all accessories have to be purchased with V-Bucks. Some things do come free in life, and in this case, the Falling Leaf Wrap can be won if the Fortnite community completes the Autumn Queen’s Quest.
The community must earn 2.5 billion points by the night of December 1st to secure the gun wrap. Players can do that by individually contributing to the point total. Gamers earn points by healing teammates with the Bandage Bazooka, reviving teammates, and playing with friends.
