Fortnite is still one of the leading battle royale games and is known for its action-packed fights in a colorful comic look with lots of building. While the usual Battle Royale mode, in which 100 players compete against each other and try to be the last to survive, is the core of the game, developer Epic Games has now focused more and more on crazy skins, cosmetics and crazy collaborations.  And hey, that's really well received by the players, I mean, who doesn't want to walk around as Eminem, Peter Griffin or maybe even a banana?  Of course, these skins and in-game items usually cost money and not everyone wants to spend that. Luckily for those who don't have deep wallets, Epic Games occasionally releases codes that allow you to get free V-Bucks or cosmetics. Get free Fortnite codes The big problem with Fortnite codes is that they are only published very rarely and can often only be redeemed to a limited extent. If you're unlucky, such a code can actually only be redeemed once. Even if you find many websites with alleged Fortnite codes on the Internet, you should be aware that most of them will not work. But there is definitely one way or another to get working free Fortnite codes. Our best tip here is to follow Epic Games' Fortnite account and a few reputable leakers on Twitter like iFireMonkey , Shiina andHYPEX . If there are any official free codes for Fortnite, you will find them here first. Redeem Fortnite's codes To redeem a Fortnite code, you must follow the following steps: Visit the official Fortnite Redeem website Log in to your Epic Games account Enter the desired code in the field provided Click “Redeem” to activate the code and receive your reward To redeem V-Bucks, simply follow the same steps but on the V-Bucks Redeem page . That's all there is to say about free Fortnite codes. As a rule, you will rarely come across a working code, but if you do find one, you can get some cool free content. (Source: Epic Games)

Battle.net is Activision Blizzard's own game launcher. So if you want to play World of Warcraft, Starcraft, Diablo or Call of Duty, you usually need the Battle.net launcher. Fortunately, some games are now available again on Steam, but you still need Battle.net for many titles. Like any other launcher, Battle.net can have its problems here and there, be it that the servers are down for maintenance work or maybe even fail completely. But it can be particularly annoying when the servers are online and you want to download a new game or update and the download speed suddenly drops dramatically.  So what can you do about slow download speeds on Battle.net? Tips to fix slow downloads in Battle.net If you're experiencing slow downloads on Battle.net, there are a few things that may resolve the issue. But only if the slow download is not due to your bamboo cable... Check your internet connection: Your connection may be unstable; a quick restart of the router can often work wonders here. Simply unplug the router briefly, wait a few seconds and plug it back in. Closes other applications: Ensures that there are no other downloads running in the background or applications that require a lot of bandwidth open.  Change download speed settings in Battle.net: Click the Battle.net icon in the top left corner of the launcher and go to Settings. Then click on “Downloads” and scroll down to “Download Limit”. Make sure there is no limit if you want to use the full speed. Change the server region: It can sometimes help to change the server region in the Battle.net Launcher if the local servers are overloaded. To do this, go to a game in the Battle.net launcher and click the small world symbol above the “Play” button. Disable your firewall and antivirus software: Sometimes firewalls or certain antivirus programs can cause problems with downloads. Check whether this is the case for you by deactivating these programs and then checking your download speed. Disable VPNs: VPNs also often throttle your download speeds, so make sure you don't download updates and new games via a VPN. These were our tips on how you can increase your download speed in Battle.net. Hopefully we were able to help you and if the downloads are still slow, you should perhaps check whether another provider offers you a better line - fortunately, fiber optic expansion is progressing slowly.
