What are V-Bucks and what are they for
If you are reading this guide on how to get V-Bucks , you will certainly know Fortnite , the famous video game from Epic Games. So I imagine that you are interested in learning more about this game currency, especially the ways that allow you to obtain it.
In this case, before talking about it in detail, it is necessary to make a brief introduction regarding the use of these virtual tokens. The V-Bucks (short for Vindertech Bucks , or Vinderbucks ) are the virtual currency of Fortnite and can be spent to purchase in-game items. They can be exchanged in the Battle Royale free PVP game mode and also in the PVE game mode called Save the World (which currently costs € 39.99 to purchase the Standard Founder ‘s Pack or € 59.99 to get the Deluxe Founder’s Pack ).
The V-Bucks obtained are shared between the two modes and are used in the Item Shop to obtain, for example, Costumes that change the aesthetic appearance of the character and weapons and Emotes , which are used to communicate through dances or expressing emotions. Items in the Item Shop change on a daily or weekly basis.
In addition, V-Bucks can be used to purchase the Battle Pass (950 V-Bucks) or the Battle Bundle (2800 V-Bucks), which affects the progression system and allows you to level up your own faster. account, in order to get rewards more quickly otherwise unlockable after several hours of play.
That said, it should be noted that the only methods to get V-Bucks for free are those that require time spent playing on Fortnite. Otherwise it is possible to purchase them in the official Fortnite store, accessible directly in the game. V-Bucks can also be bought via the PlayStation Network or the Microsoft Store .
At the time of writing this guide, therefore, there are no other methods to get V-Bucks, as I will explain in the paragraph dedicated to scams .
How to get V-Bucks on Fortnite
In the next few lines, I will tell you specifically about the best ways to get V-Bucks while playing Fortnite and how to avoid waiting to unlock them: have fun!
Play Fortnite Royal Battle
The primary way to get V-Bucks in Fortnite is also the simplest one of them all: play. By leveling up in the game, in fact, you get various rewards, including the virtual coins needed to unlock the items in the Item Shop .
By playing Fornite a Battaglia Reale (the gameplay involves PVP battles with other players in last man standing mode ) it is possible to obtain different tiers of rewards. The best, however, are those that are unlocked with the Battle Pass or the Battle Bundle , both for a fee (the first costs 950 V-Bucks and the second 4700 V-Buck). Also with the Free Pass it is possible to get V-Bucks (for example by reaching level 18 ), but in fewer numbers than those obtainable with the paid package.
The purchase of the Battle Pass and the Battle Bundle can therefore be considered an initial investment to subsequently obtain additional V-Bucks. The aforementioned passes can be purchased directly in game, by accessing the menu called Battle Pass , which is located at the top of the Lobby screen .
Playing Fortnite Save the World
Still talking about the methods that allow you to get V-Bucks for free in Fortnite, one of the best is to play Save the World , PVE game modes with tower defense mechanics . Save the World can be purchased for a fee for PC, PS4 and Xbox One at a cost of € 39.99 and the V-Bucks obtainable are shared with Battaglia Reale .
So if you bought Save the World , you can easily get V-Bucks first through the daily login reward. To do this, simply start Fornite and, once on the game’s home screen, select the Save the world item , in order to redeem the prize. You can also get a small amount of V-Bucks every 7 days of login and, from time to time, maybe even get some extra.
Another way to get V-Bucks for free while playing Save the World is to complete Daily Quests (you can only have 3 Quests active at the same time). These, accessible via the Assignments menu located on the home screen, require you to interact in game, for example by destroying specific items. The appointments can be replaced using the abandonment command: it is however possible to replace one every 24 hours.
Very useful they are also missions Defense Shield Anti-Storm to Save the World : it is a main task that requires you to protect the anti storm shield , a map in which players can build permanetemene a basis for imagining objects. By defending the Storm Shield from enemies you can get V-Bucks for free.
Purchase V-Bucks
The only alternative to get V-Bucks without playing Fortnite is to buy this virtual currency. It is possible to do this simply by logging into the game, both on Battaglia Reale and on Save the world , and accessing the relative menu, using the (+) symbol located at the top right, corresponding to the icon that represents them. The current purchase prices are as follows.

I remind you that it is also possible to purchase the V-Bucks packages mentioned through the PlayStation Store or the Microsoft Store , respectively on PS4 and Xbox One.
Beware of scams!
Finally, don’t forget that, as the Fortnite developers themselves stated on Twitter , anyone who promises to give you V-Bucks (or other items) for free by contacting you in-game or suggesting you to redeem them through specific Internet sites, is trying to scam you.
The only ways to get free V-Bucks are the ones I told you about in this guide of mine; other methods not indicated could be a scam attempt, so never enter your Fortnite login data ( email and password ) on Internet sites other than the official ones.
In case of doubts about the reliability of Internet sites, always check the presence of the HTTPS protocol (it is represented by the closed green padlock located in the address bar at the top left). Alternatively, as I explained to you in my guide on how to recognize a fake site , use sites like Trustpilot which are used to verify the Web reputation . For example, to verify with Trustpilot , go to its home page and enter, in the search engine located in the center, the name of the site that promises to give V-Bucks, in order to press the Search button .
To protect your Epic Games account from unauthorized access, you can enable two-factor authentication via an app like Google Authenticator ( Android / iOS ) or by using email authentication (this way, in addition to the account password , you will also need to enter a disposable code obtained by one of these two means).
To activate two-factor authentication, connected to the Fortnite website , log in with your credentials, click first on your username , then on the Account item , go to the Password and security menu and choose whether to activate the first mentioned tool pressing on the item Activate the Authenticator app or on Enable e-mail authentication ; then follow the instructions on the screen to complete the configuration of one of the two solutions and the game will be done.
If you believe that your account has been the subject of a scam or you are experiencing suspicious logins, contact Fortnite technical support immediately, by accessing this link and pressing the Contact us button located in the upper right corner.
