Currently, the colorful shooter Fortnite is hosting the Lantern Festival, and since April 20, there is also a corresponding Lantern Trial. Through the trials, you will receive tasks that guarantee you up to 6 free items. You can find all the registration information and tasks for the Lantern Trial on MeinMMO.
What kind of event is this? The entire month of April in Fortnite is themed around “#Sharethelight” and the Lantern Festival.
It all started with an in-game photo contest, which has now ended. Now it continues with the Lantern Trials, where you can secure free rewards by completing tasks on specific days:
- 4 Emoticons
- 1 Wrap
- 1 Back Bling
Here you will find all the information to secure the items. You can admire the wrap and backpack here:
Fortnite: Lantern Trial – Registration and Rewards
How do I participate in the Lantern Trials? You must be at least 13 years old and have an Epic account. With your account, you can register on the Lantern Trials website:
On the page, you can see your progress in the various challenges and check what’s next.
How do I get the rewards? To secure all items, you must play on at least 2 of the event days and collect points. You earn points in the Battle Royale modes and “No Build” mode.
Set tasks give you points, which you use to unlock items. For each emoticon, you need just one point on the event days:
- Day 1 – Emoticon “Bunny Hop”
- April 20, 6 AM to April 21, 6 AM
- Day 2 – Emoticon “Rook’s Eye Roll”
- April 21, 6 AM to April 22, 6 AM
- Day 3 – Emoticon “Sweaty Jonesy”
- April 22, 6 AM to April 23, 6 AM
- Day 4 – Emoticon “Ranger Shrug”
- April 23, 6 AM to April 24, 6 AM
- Day 5 – Catch up on all Emoticons
- April 24, 6 AM to April 25, 6 AM
The tasks change every day and are not known in advance. On Day 1, you gain points through eliminations. If you registered for the event and get at least one kill on Day 1, you have already secured the “Bunny Hop”.
If you collect a point on Day 5, you will receive all 4 Emoticons from the event directly.
For the wrap and backpack, however, you need to achieve more and play on at least 2 days. Because to unlock the items, you must reach point milestones:
- Wrap “Guiding Light”
- 1 Point milestone
- Back Bling “Dream Lantern”
- 2 Point milestones
On the first day, you need to gather 35 points for the milestone, which means getting 35 kills. It is still unknown how the tasks will look on the other days.
There’s always something to do in Fortnite; an event is always happening, or something new is coming. Just on April 19 did the new weapon Ranger Shotgun come into play with Update 20.20.
This even leads to some envy in the MeinMMO editorial team: As a Warzone player, I can only look enviously at what Fortnite dares to do again.
Are you checking out the event? What do you think of the rewards? We’d love to hear your opinion on the topic in the comments.
