Why do you need V Bucks?
Outfits (aka skins) are a type of cosmetic item players may equip and use for Fortnite Battle Royale. Outfits are cosmetic only, changing the appearance of the player’s character, so they do not provide any game benefit. Additionally, outfits can sometimes come with a Back Bling; the Back Bling can be worn independently of the outfit or not at all. Some outfits are also used as hero class skins in Fortnite: Save the World. There also pickaxes, glider, and dances offered in the shop. There are different prices for skins and other cosmetics: so legendary skins cost 2000 V Bucks, epic skins 1500 v Bucks, rare ones cost 1200 V Bucks and uncommon skins cost only 800 V Bucks. Emotes cost 200, 500 and 800 V Bucks and pickaxes cost 500, 800, and 1200 V Bucks like the gliders.
How to get free V Bucks
V Bucks through “Save the World”
Fortnite: Save the World is designed as a player-versus-environment game, with four players cooperating towards a common objective on various missions. The game is set after a fluke storm appears across Earth, causing 98% of the population to disappear, and the survivors to be attacked by zombie-like “husks”. The players take the role of commanders of home base shelters, collecting resources, saving survivors, and defending equipment that helps to either collect data on the storm or to push back the storm. From missions, players are awarded a number of in-game items, which include hero characters, weapon and trap schematics, and survivors, all of which can be leveled up through gained experience to improve their attributes.

V Bucks through Battle Royale
Fortnite Battle Royale is a player-versus-player battle royale game for up to 100 players, allowing one to play alone, in a duo, or in a squad (usually consisting of three or four players). Weaponless players airdrop from a “Battle Bus” that crosses the game’s map. When they land, they must scavenge for weapons, items, resources, and even vehicles while trying to stay alive and attack other players, eliminating them. Over the course of a round, the safe area of the map shrinks down in size due to an incoming storm; players outside that safe area take damage and can be eliminated if they fail to quickly evacuate. This forces the remaining players into tighter spaces and encourages player encounters. The last player, duo, or squad remaining is the winner.
