Fortnite Chapter 4: How to Activate Augments

Reality Augments have just been added to Fortnite, allowing players to activate and choose random perks mid-game. These new options come as part of a whole host of fresh content, skins, and rewards added in Chapter 4. There are currently 22 Augments added and they can stack while you play. Here’s how to turn on Augments.

How to turn on Augments in Fortnite

To activate Reality Augments, players will simply have to hop into a match and play as long as they can. As time passes, Choices between two Augments at a time will be offered throughout battle royale matches, and players can opt to re-roll their offered Augments if they’re not happy.
