Fortnite has launched a new way for players to gain exclusive limited rewards called Best Friendzy. Here are all the details.

Fortnite has been offering players a variety of new content in Season 7 as of recent, not only with the Battle Pass but also through the Imposters game mode and the upcoming Island Games event.

As well as this, players have been given another way to receive exclusive, limited rewards through a new Best Friendzy system, which sees the encouragement of partying up.

Here is everything you need to know about the Fortnite Best Friendzy event:

Best Friendzy is a new time-limited reward system in Fortnite that requires players to team up with anyone on their friend’s list and play together to receive points.

Visit bestfriendzy.fortnite.com and follow the instructions provided to link your Epic account. Once complete, Fortnite will track your Best Friendzy progress with your friends.

You must be registered and logged into the Best Friendzy website to track your point progression. Your friends are not required to register for you to see your progress together, but they can register if they want to track their own point progression.

Your points progression is based on your time spent playing Fortnite with friends:

  • Every 10 Minutes Played Together in Battle Royale = 1 Point
  • Every 10 Minutes Played Together in Creative = 1 Point (maximum of 6 points per day)
  • Bonus: During your selected 60-minute Daily Bonus you will receive a 3X bonus for your time spent playing Fortnite (i.e., every 10 minutes played together = 3 points).

The Best Friendzy event will run from August 31 until September 12 at 4:00 PM EDT, so make sure you’re getting in as much game time as possible during this period.
