The Redcap skin is available for players who successfully complete all tasks with a referred friend.
Fortnite Refer-A-Friend 3.0 is your chance to earn some free rewards and bonuses by completing certain tasks with friends you have referred in Fortnite. Eligible referrals include new or returning players as long as they have not played more than two hours of Battle Royale in the last 30 days. The Fortnite Refer-A-Friend 3.0 is live until January 9, 2024.
What is Fortnite Refer-A-Friend 3.0?
The Fortnite Refer-A-Friend is your opportunity to win some cosmetic skins such as the Redcap skin by showing your friends the joy of Fortnite Battle Royale. It doesn't need to be completely new players, but it could simply be existing players who haven’t touched the game in a while. So go through your friend list and get some old-time players back into the game.
Eligible Referrals
There are some conditions for which accounts can be eligible for referrals. For an account to be counted as an eligible referral, it should fulfill the following criteria:
- Played less than two hours of Battle Royale or Zero Build - Battle Royale in the last 30 days
This includes completely new accounts as well as returning accounts. It doesn’t matter as long as they fulfill the criteria above.
