How to link Fortnite to your console?

Linking your Fortnite account to a console lets you play with the same progress and V-Bucks across all platforms.

Link to PlayStation

1. Launch Fortnite on your PS4/PS5. 2. When starting the game it will ask you to sign in with Epic Games. 3. On the console open the browser, go to epicgames.com/activate and use the code shown on screen. Your accounts are now linked.

Link to Xbox

The process is similar to PlayStation. When launching Fortnite on Xbox it will ask you to link to Epic Games. Follow the on-screen instructions. You can also do it from epicgames.com/account in the 'Connections' section.

Link to Nintendo Switch

On Nintendo Switch, Fortnite is available in the eShop. When installing it, sign in with your Epic Games account from within the game. Your V-Bucks and progress will sync automatically.

What happens to my V-Bucks when linking?

V-Bucks are in your Epic Games account, not on the console. Once linked, you see your V-Bucks on any platform. If you buy V-Bucks on vbs.ar, they're available on all your linked consoles.
