Fortnite Crew Benefits and Cost — Is It Worth Signing Up?
Seeing Fortnite players running around with the Lana Llane skin and wondering how you can get it? You'll need to be part of the Fortnite Crew. Here is what the Fortnite Crew is so you can decide if it's worth it.

Fortnite Crew Benefits
The most talked-about Fortnite Crew perk is a monthly bundle full of curated items including an exclusive skin and matching accessory. For February, this is Lana Llane and her Llamaphonic Blaster back bling, and Glownicorn Llamaxes pickaxe.
That's not all, however. Fortnite Crew members also get full access to the current battle pass. As long as you're subscribed, you'll keep getting each battle pass as they're released. You'll need to play Fortnite and grind for each reward still but it's still a nice perk.
Every month that you're subscribed you'll also get 1,000 V-Bucks. This in-game cash can be used toward outfits, emotes, and whatever else you find in the Item Shop.
Fortnite has also announced two bonus benefits for being in the Fortnite Crew. This includes a Rocket Pass Premium in Rocket League. Use your Epic account in Fortnite and Rocket League to unlock the ability to earn additional in-game Rocket League rewards. You'll also get a "Legacy style" for Crew outfits for every month you're an active subscriber, giving you even more looks to choose from.
How Much Is The Fortnite Crew?
Fortnite Crew will cost you $11.99 a month.
You'll end up paying about $144 a year to be a part of the Fortnite Crew. If this is something you're interested in, all you have to do is head to the Item Shop and find the Fortnite Crew there. You'll be able to sign up and unlock the perks for that month.
If you already purchased the current battle pass before subscribing, you'll get a one-time 950 V-Bucks to your account.
Is the Fortnite Crew Worth It?
The Fortnite Crew is worth it if you are the type of Fortnite player who would grind every battle pass each season. Every battle pass is $9.99. Skins will cost you around $8 to $15 on average. If you do the math for this on top of the 1,000 V-Bucks per month, the Fortnite Crew is worth it.
But if you are not the type of gamer who would ever buy skins or battle passes to begin with, signing up for the Fortnite Crew isn't the most practical use of your money.
