Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 introduced fans to tons of mechanics, such as Society Medallions and weapons mods. On top of this, the Battle Royale game mode also started with a completely different island with 11 named locations ready to be explored. Even though Fortnite had its peak of active players during Fortnite OG, Epic Games wants to incentivize any fans who might've missed it or not had time to play to return to the game.
Fortnite is once again hosting a Reboot Rally event and giving away free cosmetic items to active, new, and returning players who decide to team up and give the game another chance. This guide will tell gamers everything they need to know about the Chapter 5 Season 1 Reboot Rally event.
Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 arrived on December 3, and along with it came the latest edition of the Reboot Rally event. Active players and returning or new players can both participate in the event, but they must join forces in order to do so.
Gamers who have played less than two hours of Fortnite between November 3 and December 3, the duration of Season OG, are considered new or returning players and will only be eligible for this quest if they team up with those who have played for longer than two hours during this time period.
Active players can invite inactive players by finding them in the Friends tab in-game and selecting the Rally 'Em Back option. However, this will only complete one of the Reboot Rally Quests; the other quests require them to play a few matches together and complete a few Match Quests.
Reboot Rally Quests | Rewards |
---|---|
Stage 1 - Rally friends from their profile or the Reboot Rally event panel | 50 points |
Stage 2 - Complete a Battle Royale or Zero Build match with an eligible friend | 15 points |
Earn XP with an eligible friend in Battle Royale, Zero Build, Team Rumble, Save the World, or any creator-made experience except those made using UEFN (Stage 1 of 5) | 5 points |
Complete one Match Quest with an eligible friend (repeatable) | 10 points |
Complete two Match Quests with an eligible friend (repeatable) | 20 points |
Complete three Match Quests with an eligible friend (repeatable | 30 points |
As players earn more points in the Reboot Rally event, they'll progressively unlock exclusive cosmetic rewards. These rewards will not be available in the future, so gamers who want to collect as many items as they can to fill up their in-game lockers must act fast before the Reboot Rally event comes to an end on January 9, 2024, at 9 AM ET. Here are the Chapter 5 Season 1 Reboot Rally rewards and the points required to get them:
