There are now 100 reward tiers in the Season 3 Battle Pass, compared to 70 in the Season 2 Battle Pass.

The tiers feature new loot to unlock, which is divided into the following categories:
- 6 outfits
- 3 pickaxes
- 4 emotes
- 3 gliders
- 3 back blings
- 5 skydiving FX trails
- 8 loading screens

Players can opt to either purchase the Battle Pass or the Battle Bundle, which includes access to the Battle Pass alongside 25 tiers for an extra 2800 V-Bucks.
The Battle Pass will also include Weekly Challenges allowing Fortnite players to climb tiers faster, with them being stackable and able to be completed at any point during the season.
Players can download the Fortnite Season 3 Battle Pass starting today, so if you want to get your hands on some nice new loot, then jump right in (but check the servers are online first)!
