Overview
- Epic confirms the PvE mode’s free‑to‑play relaunch on April 16 and has removed the paid store listing ahead of release.
- Save the World will be playable on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Windows PC, and Nintendo Switch 2, with support on Amazon Luna, GeForce Now, and Xbox Cloud Gaming, but it remains unavailable on smartphones, tablets, and the original Switch.
- A new website is taking pre‑registrations, with community milestones at 300,000, 700,000, and 1,000,000 unlocking in‑game rewards for registrants, including a Snowstrike Hero.
- Existing owners will receive Superchargers, Vouchers, and Gold on launch day, and Founders will continue to earn V‑Bucks through current quests, mission alerts, Storm Shield defenses, and existing challenges.
- The move follows Epic’s announcement of higher V‑Bucks prices, a timing outlets link to broader changes in how Fortnite’s PvE content is monetized.
