When can I do this?

Fellow fort fanatics,

If Fortnite going into Early Access was not enough for you, well prep those traps and reinforce those walls because we’re kicking things off with a Founder’s Event.

We are kicking off Early Access by adding special Llama Pinatas to the store, which you can purchase with Founder’s Coins.

These Llama contain all the same things you’d expect to find in a Llama (Survivors, Weapons, etc.), but also a chance at a Founder’s Exclusive version of an epic weapon (normal weapon).

Founder’s Coins can be acquired through Daily Quests which will be available on Day 1 for you to complete and begin picking up those Llamas!
