Fortnite players have been receiving more free skins and rewards than ever before. From the Juice WRLD skin in Chapter 2 Remix to the Winterfest presents, Epic Games continues to give players amazing opportunities to claim free content. Now, with Chapter 6, there’s another exclusive free skin that everyone can unlock. This skin ties into the upcoming live event, which will merge our reality with the Spirit Realm, releasing demons onto the island. Alongside this, players can grab additional rewards, interact with secret NPCs, and even discover hidden weapons that weren’t meant to be in the game.

Let’s break down everything you need to know about unlocking these exclusive freebies in Fortnite Chapter 6.

New NPCs & Secret Weapons

Fortnite Chapter 6 introduces 15 different NPCs, each offering services, weapons, or unique abilities. Some, like V, can scan for nearby enemies, while others like Mizuki provide an infinite ammo loop. However, Epic Games has a history of accidentally dropping unintended weapons through NPCs, and this season is no exception.

One of the biggest glitches involves Goldie, an NPC found at the Bird Gas Station. Instead of dropping an epic Veiled SMG, she mistakenly drops a gray variant—similar to previous NPC errors with incorrect weapon drops.

But that’s not all. The Doberman NPC has an even bigger secret. While many players know about his XP and rare chest rewards, few realize that eliminating him was meant to grant a Void Ani Mask. However, due to a glitch, he is currently impossible to eliminate.

Free Rewards: From Exclusive Pickaxes to Secret Back Blings

One of the easiest free rewards comes from Nintendo Switch players. Epic Games has partnered with Nintendo to offer the Prickly Axe Pickaxe for free with a special controller purchase. If you grab the controller, you’ll receive a redeemable code to unlock this cosmetic without spending V-Bucks.

Another long-awaited freebie is the Ser Buet Back Bling. Originally discovered in the game files during Chapter 4 Season 3, this back bling was assumed to be part of a National Bread Day event, but it never released. Now, Epic Games has confirmed that players who subscribe to Fortnite’s email surveys will receive the item within 24 hours.

To claim it:

  1. Visit Fortnite.com and log into your account.
  2. Click your name in the top right and navigate to Account Settings.
  3. Enable Email Preferences, making sure the survey box is checked.
  4. Save changes, and the next time you log into Fortnite, the back bling should be added to your locker.

Unlocking the Free Chapter 6 Demon Skin

The biggest free reward of Chapter 6 ties into an upcoming mini live event centered around the Spirit Realm. This event, set to take place next Saturday, will involve players fighting off demons that emerge from a frozen portal. Epic has been teasing this for weeks, as the Deo NPC prepares a secret ritual to free his sister, Jade, who is trapped in the spirit realm.

During the event, players will be tasked with eliminating waves of demons, including the Lesser Demons, Puppeteers, Fire Demon Warriors, and Voy Demon Warriors. Once the final boss fight concludes, Jade will return as an NPC, offering players a secret quest that grants a free reward. While the reward is currently encrypted, leaks suggest it could be either a new Demon Skin or the Deo’s Plan Loading Screen.
