How to get the Velocity Edge pickaxe in Fortnite

To get the Velocity Edge pickaxe, you need to play Fortnite on Amazon Luna between July 3rd and July 19th. This isn’t the first time Fortnite have teamed up with a gaming service in this manner; they previously partnered with NVIDIA to offer an exclusive GeForce Now pickaxe. This time, Epic Games has released the new Velocity Edge cosmetic as an exclusive free item for players on Amazon’s new cloud gaming service, Luna.

At the moment, Luna is only available in the following regions:

• Canada
• Germany
• United Kingdom
• United States

While Amazon certainly plans to expand to more regions in the future, this unfortunately means that you’ll need to be playing in one of these countries to get the Velocity Edge pickaxe right now.

How to unlock Velocity Edge with Amazon Luna

Players who subscribe to the new gaming service and play Fortnite during the limited time availability will get the new skin for free. You can get Luna for a standalone monthly subscription of $9.99, with a 7-day trial offered by Amazon if you want to be sneaky and just pick it up for the skin. Alternatively, you can get Luna as part of the Amazon Prime bundle deal, which offers a 30 day free trial.

You’ll be able to get the pickaxe through Luna on any of the following devices or through the following avenues:

• Browsers, including the Microsoft Edge browser, the Google Chrome browser, and the Safari browser.
• Fire TV
• Fire Tablets
• iPad
• Mobile Phones, including iPhone and Andriod
• PC – use the Luna App on either Windows PC or MacOS
• Samsung TV and Samsung Smart TVs

As long as you’re a subscriber to Amazon’s cloud-gaming service, you’ll get access to the in-game reward. All you need to do is launch Fortnite through Luna. Doing this will automatically sign gamers in to their Epic account.

If you aren’t able to pick up the Velocity Edge cosmetic during this window though, don’t worry. Chances are that after the event we’ll see the skin pop up in the Fortnite store sooner or later.
