Happy 5th birthday, Fortnite Battle Royale!

Starting September 23, 2022, at 9 AM ET, we’ll be celebrating the 5th birthday of Fortnite Battle Royale with special in-game Quests, a birthday-themed Fortography showcase, and Fortnite trivia on social media. Check out all the details below.

Birthday Quests

During the birthday festivities, the Battle Bus will be flying with a new birthday paint job. After thanking the bus driver for dropping you off at your favorite POI, find yourself a Birthday Present on the Island full of high-grade loot, as well as delicious, restorative Birthday Cake. There’s decor too — Balloons (a.k.a. convenient floating devices) are also back!

Use these unvaulted items to complete Birthday Quests, available from 9 AM ET on September 23 until 9 AM ET on September 27. Complete these Quests — which will be findable on the Quests page —  to unlock the new Fuzzfetti Cake Back Bling, Celebratory Slice Pickaxe, and Sparklecake Spray.

Birthday Fortography

Fortography makes its return to join the birthday celebration! As usual, we want you to show us your best Fortnite screenshot depicting a certain theme. The theme for this Fortography? Celebrating a birthday, whether it be Fortnite’s or a fellow player’s, or simply your favorite Fortnite memory from the past five years.  

Need some ideas? You could snap a shot of you and friends enjoying the in-game Birthday Cake or opening the Birthday Presents. Or you can find a sentimental shot you already have in your library. For all the awesome island designers, share some images of a birthday-themed island! 

Share your Birthday Fortography screenshots with us using the #FNBR5 hashtag on Twitter, Instagram, and/or Facebook, or by using the Fortography post flair on r/FortNiteBR. We’ll be highlighting some of our favorite screenshots in a blog post on October 7th 10 am ET.

Fortnite Trivia

Quiz time! How well do you know Fortnite? To cap off the birthday celebration, join us on  @FortniteGame Twitter and Fortnite Instagram where we’ll be posting Fortnite-themed trivia questions. We’ll have a variety of questions, ranging from Common to Legendary, that covers various Fortnite topics from years past. Make sure to check out the linked social channels and show off how much Fortnite knowledge you have!

Thanks to everyone who’s dropped on the Island these past five years and don’t forget to continue thanking the bus driver! 🚌
