Depending on how it's announced, that second kind can be used up within an hour or less. Either a couple of days to a couple of weeks, or a set number of redemptions. Maybe the other commenter saw one of these at a store and was confused about what it actually was?īut free codes? Very rare, and only ever for something small like a banner icon, graffiti spray, or maybe a loading screen once in a while. However, the only thing inside the case is just a redemption code for the cosmetics. Maybe that's what they were thinking of? It's the only thing to ever exist that matches their description.Īlternatively, there are specific cosmetic bundles sold independently of the game as a type of DLC, and they sometimes are also sold as 'physical' copies in Fortnite-branded game cases. For a short period between 2017 - early 2018, the highest-priced upgrades included one or two codes to gift a Standard Edition Founder's Pack to a friend. Years ago, there used to be Founder's Packs for the original PvE game Save the World (which existed long before Battle Royale, and is also the sole focus of this subreddit). There aren't any 'special editions of the game that come during sales', that's not a real thing. Sorry, that other commenter doesn't seem to know what they're talking about.
