Fornite’s Messy Battle Pass Is Getting Streamlined December 1

Premium cosmetic skins for Fortnite characters

Despite its many convoluted systems that weigh down the overall experience, Fortnite remains one of the most popular multiplayer games. When was the last time you checked its battle pass system? For the longest time, the battle royale game required multiple forms of currency to progress through its seasonal pass system, unlocking unique rewards like skins and emotes, but that’s all changing. Epic Games intends to simplify the user experience by removing Festival Points, Battle Stars, and Studs. Now, you’ll progress through the pass with good ‘ole XP!

This welcome change goes into effect on December 1. After that, all Fortnite passes will progress via XP earned by playing any of the core playlists. Yes, this includes Battle Royale, Lego Fortnite, Rocket Racing, and Fortnite Festival.

For long-time players, this shouldn’t be a significant change. If you actively play Fortnite Battle Royale, then this progression system went into place previously, and it will activate for the Music Pass on November 2, which replaces the Festival Pass. On December 1, the Brick or Treat Lego Pass follows suit.

Of course, Epic isn’t consolidating all of the various passes. If you play multiple game modes within Fortnite, such as Battle Royale and Lego, you’ll still have to buy separate passes to unlock every seasonal item for both modes. However, Epic did say, “Stay tuned, you’ll soon have an easy way to snag all premium passes at once.” They’re likely hinting at a single bundle purchase that’ll save you money for buying all passes simultaneously.

This is certainly a welcomed change that goes against what many players were fearful of following Disney’s investment in Epic Games. While you still can’t fight Mickey Mouse at Coney Crossroads, a persistent universe is planned in some form. It’s likely this new universe will feature some type of battle pass, which you’ll require XP to progress.
