Our Fortnite 2nd Birthday guide will walk you through information on all skins, rewards, challenges, and when the event starts! If you missed the first event last year, Fortnite brought guests together for their celebration, where players could earn some sweet cosmetics by completing some relatively easy tasks! Based on the leaks we've seen, it looks like the second year won't be any different, and even increased the amount of rewards that will be received.
WHEN WILL THE FORTNITE 2nd BIRTHDAY EVENT START?
It has not been officially announced yet, but the celebrations began on July 24 last year. It seems very likely that it will start again on or about that date. The game was technically released on July 25, 2017, so it's not clear when they actually count their birthday.

FORTNITE 2nd BIRTHDAY GUIDE
Play matches (10)
Pretty easy, just jump into a bunch of games to complete this challenge.
Dance in front of various birthday cakes (10)
We're not entirely sure where the birthday cakes will be, but check back soon and we'll have a map with all available locations!
Survive Enemies (500)
The easiest way to complete this is to simply go to some far point on the map and hide, but you can also just play those 10 matches from the previous challenge and you'll probably finish this one.
Refill health or shield from birthday cake (50)
If it's the same as last year, there will be birthday cake pieces that you need to dance around. Eat the cake and you'll either get health or a shield!
