Epic Games expands Fortnite away from typical battle royale offerings by connecting all its battle passes into one. Beginning November 2, players can level up through all available passes using XP earned from any game mode, removing the necessity of having separate currency for each game mode: LEGO Fortnite and Music-themed Fortnite Festival. This update is essential to make everything as simple as before, while Fortnite has become a diverse place for every person with different things to do.

Until this point, players could only earn mode-specific points such as “studs” for the LEGO Fortnite or “festival points” for the Fortnite Festival, respectively, to level up through the respective passes. 

Starting on November 2, Fortnite’s Music Pass, known as the Festival Pass, will be the initial one to ditch festival points. Starting a LEGOLAND promotion, “Brick or Treat Pass” on December 1 will replace the “studs.” This will also be the final season of ‘Battle Stars for Fortnite’s main battle pass; instead, all are under one XP system.

New features include primary and secondary rewards and new ways of access

Previously, players needed to go to the Epic Games Store’s website to redeem codes; now Epic says players can obtain those missions and grants in-game currency “by simply downloading an installer that will allow players to get content on their PC.” 

Subsequent LEGO and Music Passes released after December 1st will feature one progress track for a Battle Pass with free and premium reward pools for those wanting to buy them. Before that, players can buy some rewards immediately from a pass without going through the difficulty involved in levelling up to unlock a particular portion of the pass.

Besides, to make players’ work even more convenient, Epic has announced its intention to purchase all battle passes at once. Previously, you had to buy each separately. This makes the progression system less complicated yet engaging and allows people play through the vast Fortnite world at their own pace.

Laying down groundwork for the next chapter in Fortnite

This occurs as Fortnite’s current Marvel-themed season draws to a close and culminates with a live event, which Epic has hinted at the Remix island from Chapter 2 to occur at Saturday at 2 AM ET. This touch fits with Fortnite’s general mission to become a highly layered and expansive experience with different layers where players may recreate previous events and simultaneously go on new exciting missions.

It appears Epic Games is test-running a new approach with Battle Pass to making Fortnite not only a game but something that offers something for every type of player. These Battle Pass updates are just being unveiled weeks before the current Marvel-themed season is set to end this Saturday at 2 AM ET. Epic Games has started mentioning the upcoming live event ending the season and suggested that the next “Remix” season returns players to the Chapter 2 island, which means another nice walk through the story of Fortnite.
