A new Fortnite Festival XP glitch has been discovered that allows players to easily and quickly level up their Battle Pass.
The glitch involves playing the Festive Jam Stage for 20 minutes while going AFK. To perform it, you need to join a friend’s lobby or use an alt account.
Make sure you haven’t completed the “Play on the Jam Stage for 20 minutes” quest beforehand. After the 20 minutes is up, simply leave the game and you will level up once back in the lobby.
Players can then rejoin their friend’s lobby and leave again to level up a second time. This process can be repeated as many times as desired to keep gaining XP.
While Epic Games typically doesn’t ban users for exploiting glitches, this one has already been patched as of the article’s publishing. So it is unlikely to still be working.
The article doesn’t provide specifics on how much XP is awarded each time. But the ability to essentially gain a level every couple of minutes would drastically reduce the grind.
Especially for those still working on maxing out their Battle Pass before the end of the season.
