The new Battle Pass also introduces a major first for the game. This will officially be the debut of the Sidekick. This new companion is named Fortnite Peels Sidekick. He looks exactly how he sounds, and a fun new addition to the game.

Peels is the exclusive Sidekick available right now. However, more Sidekicks will be arriving in the Shop soon. They are scheduled to hit the Item Shop on November 7. This feature adds a completely new dynamic to squad interactions.

Earning Exclusive Rewards

The Fortnite Simpsons event is full of many gifts for the players. The devs want the fans to truly enjoy this exciting collab. Both of these properties are some of the most loved, and the developers really understand that. This is why there are several ways to earn exclusive cosmetic items just for participating in the event. These rewards are available through account linking and Twitch Drops.

Account Linking Glider

You can snag the Kang and Kodos Glider by linking your accounts. However, to get the glider, you would need both Epic and Disney accounts. Then you would need to link these accounts through the App. Players will be given plenty of time to claim their reward. You can expect the final deadline to be around the end of February next year.

Whether you have just connected or already have linked accounts, the Glider will be automatically placed in your Locker. This will happen before November 15.

Twitch Drop Wrap

At the start of this event, a special cosmetic Wrap was also available for a limited time. The players only had around a day or two to get this free skin. This Fortnite Twitch Drop is a Wrap called The Siiimpsooooons… Wrap. Players who now have this skin are among the few who now own this piece forever. So if you have this, you now have a unique item on your hands.

Victory Cups and Tournaments

The Springfield crossover also introduces plenty of tournaments for competitive players. The developers have stated, “I’m number one!” to hype up the competition.

One of the highlights is the Fortnite Victory Cups. These tournaments offer a direct cash prize structure. Once you successfully enter Round 2 of a Victory Cup, you will earn cash for every single Victory Royale you manage to get. This unique style of matches means that you would need to be consistent.
