"Fortnite Battle Royale" is a free game, but many Players decide to spend some money on it and buy cosmetic items. Fortunately, these items don't give players competitive advantage and are purely cosmetic, which makes the game enjoyable for everyone. These cosmetic items cost a lot of money, and you need to spend $10 even on a simple skin that's nothing but a recolor of one of the default skins.
However, Epic Games has decided to give "Fortnite Battle Royale" players free cosmetic items through Twitch Prime. The game developer started a special promotion last month, allowing players to obtain a pair of free skins, a glider, and a back bling in the free package.
Now, another item is being added to the pack, which will most likely make even more players get this special package.
Two skins, glider, pickaxe
The special package includes two valuable skins, with one of them being a Legendary skin. The glider that comes in the package is purple and black, just like the Epic skin, and the back bling from the Legendary skin can be used on any other outfit. The new item that will be added to the package is a pickaxe, which means that players will be able to obtain five rewards from the Twitch Prime loot.

The exclusive Battle Royale Instigator Pickaxe will be added to the pack on March 29, giving "Fortnite Battle Royale" players plenty of time to obtain it.
The promotion ends in late April, so if you play the game, you should head over to Twitch, get the prime account, and obtain your free pack!
Is it really free?
Yes and no. You will have to sign up for Twitch Prime in order to claim the pack, and the prime membership is paid. However, you can sign up for a 30-day Prime trial, which will allow you to claim the loot pack for free.
You may unsubscribe at any time, and you will still keep your "Fortnite Battle Royale" skins and the other three cosmetic items.
Guided Missile coming to 'Fortnite Battle Royale'
Epic Games announced that Guided Missile would be added to the popular video game this week. While players still don't know all the details about the new item, the short trailer showed what it will look like.
It seems that the missile will be able to be locked on a specific target, and it will be automatically guided to the target. There is no information regarding its damage, drop rates, rarity, or anything else.
We can expect the new pickaxe and a Guided Missile to be added with a patch on Thursday, March 29.
