Are you always worried that you might miss out on an important item if the Fortnite Battle Pass expires? Well, this will soon change.
Battle Passes in Fortnite have always remained extremely popular, as they’ve allowed players to unlock unique items by climbing the ranks.
To get all the items, you have to complete the Battle Pass before the season ends. However, Epic Games has now decided to change how things work.
Some Fortnite Battle Pass change — items will no longer be exclusive
According to a new post published on the official website of Fortnite, items that are available in a Battle Pass might become available for purchase after 18 months or more.
Some items in the Battle Pass can’t be generally acquired from anywhere else. This is why players constantly grind to climb the ranks to avoid missing out on anything important.

However, now that Epic Games has changed how the Battle Pass works, you will be able to grab some items from the shop using V-Bucks, which is the in-game currency of Fortnite.
It is important to keep in mind that Epic has not shared any details on which items will be available for purchase. They’ve only said that it will depend on different factors.
The company will also communicate with the players and ask for their feedback regarding which items should become available in the shop. So, if an item is extremely popular, there’s a high chance it will be added to the shop.
It is also unclear if items from previous Battle Passes will be available in the shop, as the changes seem to apply only to the current and future Battle Passes.
Epic Games has also confirmed that this change will not have any effect on the price of the Battle Pass. It will still be available for 950 V-Bucks, and you can still earn up to 1,500 V-Bucks through it.
