The Amazon Luna Fortnite Pickaxe, also known as the Fortnite Velocity Edge Pickaxe, is a limited-time promotional item available exclusively to players who access Fortnite through the Luna cloud gaming service. Here’s how you can snag it for free:
Summary
Playing Fortnite through Amazon Luna
Prime members can access Fortnite on Luna for free by visiting the Amazon Luna Fortnite page. If you’re not a Prime member, you can sign up for a Luna+ account. Luna+ usually costs $9.99/£8.99 per month, but there’s a 7-day free trial available. This trial period gives you enough time to claim the pickaxe before cancelling your subscription.
Once logged in, you can play Fortnite through various devices. If you need help getting started, visit the Luna getting started page and select your device. When you launch Fortnite through Luna for the first time, make sure to log in and link your Epic Games account to attach any rewards, including the Amazon Luna Fortnite Pickaxe, to your account.
Claiming the Pickaxe
To claim the Amazon Luna Fortnite Pickaxe, play Fortnite through Luna between July 3 and July 17. Simply logging in and reaching the lobby screen should suffice, though playing at least one battle royale match is recommended. The pickaxe will be unlocked as an in-game reward within seven days after July 19.
While initially exclusive to Luna players during the promotion, the Velocity Edge Pickaxe may become available for purchase in the Item Shop for all players in the future.
