Every time a new Fortnite season starts, the same question arises in the community: Should I buy the 1,000 V-Bucks for the Battle Pass or subscribe to Fortnite Crew?
If you are undecided, here is the ultimate comparison so you know which option offers the best value for your wallet and your account.
What does the classic Battle Pass include?
The traditional Battle Pass costs 950 V-Bucks. By leveling up, you can unlock:
- More than 100 rewards (Skins, pickaxes, gliders, emotes).
- Up to 1,500 V-Bucks back if you complete all levels (returns your investment and earns you 550 extra).
It is an excellent investment if you know you will play a lot during the next 3 months.
What does the Fortnite Crew include?
Fortnite Crew is a monthly subscription. Instead of paying with V-Bucks, it is paid with real money (or by purchasing it directly with a discount on UltraPavos). This is what you get every month:
- The current Battle Pass: If you don't have it, it's yours. If you already bought it with V-Bucks, those 950 V-Bucks will be refunded to your account!
- 1,000 extra V-Bucks: Deposited in your account on the day the subscription renews.
- Exclusive Crew Pack: A Skin that will NEVER appear in the item shop, accompanied by its accessories (pickaxe, back bling, etc.).
- Legacy Styles: For each month you keep the subscription, the monthly skin receives additional styles (up to 6 rare styles).
Direct Comparison
| Benefit | Battle Pass Only (950 V-Bucks) | Fortnite Crew |
|---|---|---|
| Pass Access | ||
| Instant V-Bucks | (Only by playing) | (1,000 Monthly) |
| Exclusive Skins | (Monthly Pack) |
How to get the maximum advantage? (Trick)
A very popular trick among players is to buy Fortnite Crew at the end of the month. This way, with a single monthly subscription, you get the exclusive skin of that month and the skin of the following month, in addition to the 1,000 V-Bucks and the Battle Pass.
Which one to buy?
If you only care about Battle Pass rewards and don't care about exclusive Crew skins, buying the 1,000 V-Bucks is the cheapest option.
But if you want to grow your locker with skins, add extra V-Bucks to buy from the item shop, and also have the Battle Pass, **Fortnite Crew** crushes any other shop offer in terms of value for money.
At UltraPavos, you can buy your Fortnite Crew subscription at a reduced price compared to your console or PC store. We deliver quickly, securely, and with 24/7 support.
