It is time to grab a friend and earn that "Victory Royale" together as Fortnite launches its "Best Friendzy" limited-time event. The said event, according to Spieltimes, will give opportunity for players to bond with their in-game friends and spark up friendships while working together in earning event exclusive rewards.
Before this, the shooting game have seen bonds that created while on the battlefield for years, especially in those times that they want to complete an objective as a team, slaying opponents during their hours-long worth of sessions.
How Does the Event Goes
In Best Friendzy limited-time event, according to a post in the Epic Games' Fortnite webpage, the player and its in-game friend will compete in a normal Battle Royale game, either a Duos, Trios or Squads, or in a Creative game to earn points.
For every 10 minutes that they are playing in both modes, they will each earn a point. The only difference is that they will earn unlimited points in Battle Royale, while they will earn up to six points only per day when they play in Creative.

During a selected 60-minute Daily Bonus in a gamer mode, whether if it is Battle Royale or Creative, the friendly duo will earn a triple multiplier bonus in their points for their time spent playing in the game.
For example, a duo playing in a Duos Battle Royale can earn three points for every 10 minutes that they are playing in the game instead of only one point.
In case a friend could not make it to play Fortnite with a player due to schedule conflicts, he or she can still earn points with any other player that is included in his or her friend list during the event period.
They can also track their progress within the event with their other friends, however, they must first complete fully the same progression with a single friend to unlock the rewards.
