How to earn free V-Bucks in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2

The Chapter 5 Season 2 Battle Pass comes with 300 free V-Bucks that you can earn simply by playing the game and levelling up.

A worthy investment?

If you’re someone who regularly reaches level 100 and and beyond, it might be worth buying the Battle Pass as a one-off. Once you buy it once, every time you max out your Battle Pass, you’ll earn enough V-Bucks to buy the next one, so you’ll only need to buy one with real money.

If you purchase the new pass, however, you can earn up to 1,500 V-Bucks for reaching level 100, on top of the various skin, emotes and more that you’ll get too. Considering that the Chapter 5 Season 2 Battle Pass costs 950 V-Bucks, not only will you get your V-Bucks back, but you’ll also make 550 extra.
