After being teased at the start of the month, Fortnite's Lantern Trials are finally here and in full swing, letting you tick off daily challenges to unlock emoticons, wraps, and back bling.
Lantern Fest 2022 gives Fortnite players the chance to grab a bunch of freebies, as long as you earn at least one point per day. Points are awarded for various in-game activities, and, as always, if you miss a day, there's a chance to mop up any outstanding rewards on day five.
Hitting specific stretch goals will net you a couple of extra goodies, too, giving you a little extra incentive. You'll need to sign up to take part, so let's dive into how the Fortnite Lantern Trials work to get you those prizes.
Fortnite Lantern Trials: how to sign up
This is nice and easy! Just head over to the Fortnite Lantern Trials website and log in with your Epic Games account. You can now keep tabs on your progress for the rest of the week, as you participate in the daily challenges and try to hit those stretch goals. Just hit the 'Check My Stats' button under the daily task to update the page if it's taking too long to sync.
Points are doled out for things like eliminations, dealing damage to opponents, and other in-game activities. They have to be earned in specific playlists – in this case, Battle Royale and Zero Build.
