Fortnite Lantern Trials is a new event that rewards players with exclusive cosmetic items. We'll explain how to sign up and unlock the rewards.

A new event called Lantern Trials has started in Fortnite, where players can earn free rewards simply by playing the game. The Fortnite Lantern Trials are there to celebrate Ramadan.

Epic Games is supporting Ramadan by rewarding players with themed cosmetics. There are no strenuous challenges or quests to complete. To unlock the three rewards, you simply need to play Fortnite for a few hours.

How do I sign up for the Fortnite Lantern Trials event?

To unlock the rewards, you must first log in to the official Fortnite Lantern Trials event website with your Epic Games account. This will automatically log the player in and start tracking their progress. After that, all you have to do is play Fortnite. Yes, it really is that simple. Every 40 minutes you spend in a game of Fortnite, you earn a Lantern Trials badge. Players will earn rewards at levels 1, 6, and 11.

The time played is counted only in the regular modes Solos, Duos, Trios, and Squads. Time will not be counted if you are spamming Arena, an LTM, or Creative mode. This also means that players cannot sit in the lobby for 7 hours to earn the rewards.
