Fortnite’s Reboot Rally grants players the chance to bring back friends to the game in exchange for free in-game rewards.
Epic Games has officially launched the Fortnite Reboot Rally, a limited-time event where players can bring back friends who have not played the game recently and unlock free rewards. This event is similar to Fortnite’s Refer-A-Friend program. However, the method of acquiring these cosmetic items is different this time. Above all, the goal is for participants to entice their friends to come back to Fortnite.
Here’s everything you need to know about the Fortnite Reboot Rally event.
How to reboot a friend in the Fortnite Reboot Rally
Epic defines a qualified participant as someone who has less than two hours played on Fortnite over the last 30 days. To find eligible players, you can open your friend list and look for names with a ‘Reboot’ symbol. Then, click on the player’s name and select “Rally ‘Em Back” from the menu. Lastly, a QR code will appear that you can scan, which provides more information about the Fortnite Reboot Rally.
Here is a step-by-step breakdown of Fortnite Reboot Rally:
- Open up Fortnite
- Navigate to your friend list by clicking the three horizontal lines in the upper-left corner
- Locate a friend with the “Reboot Rally” symbol next to their name
- Click on that name and select the “Rally ‘Em Back” option
- Scan the QR code to learn more about the program
