Fortnite's summer event is happening right now, but it's only available for a few days. The Summer Escape event aims to celebrate 14 days of summer, and during this time players will have tons of summer-y quests to complete and free rewards to claim.
Although many of the cosmetics given away are related to the Summer Escape quests, there's one back bling in particular that cannot be obtained this way. This guide will show players how they can get their hands on the limited-time Nanner Buddy back bling in Fortnite.
How to Get the Nanner Buddy Back Bling
The Nanner Buddy back bling is an exclusive item for Fortnite Crew members. It's a summer gift for those who subscribed to the Crew during the Summer Escape event.
In order to get the Nanner Buddy back bling, gamers have to log into Fortnite between July 4 at 9 AM ET and July 8 at 9 AM ET while having an active Fortnite Crew membership.
The Nanner Buddy back bling has two styles: the standard yellow style and an alternative Tropical style in red. The back bling goes quite well with a lot of skins; it's not too oversized, and it's perfect for gamers that enjoy Peely variants.
July 2023 Fortnite Crew Pack Content
Gamers might be wondering if the July 2023 Fortnite Crew Pack is worth the $11.99 price tag. Thankfully, it's one of the most packed bundles the Crew subscription has seen to date. This is what fans will receive if they subscribe to the Fortnite Crew in July:
- Breezabelle skin
- Alternative Academy Colors variant for the Breezabelle skin
- Alternative Midnight Hour variant for the Breezabelle skin
- Message in a Bottle back bling
- Bubble Wands harvesting tool
- 1,000 V-Bucks
- Access to the Winter's Trickster Legacy Set
- Rocket League Rocket Pass
Additionally, players that bought the Chapter 4 Season 3 Battle Pass with their own V-Bucks will receive a refund of 950 V-Bucks, as Crew members will always receive the Battle Pass for free.
On top of all these perks, gamers that activate the Crew Pack before the end of the Summer Escape event will receive the free Nanner Buddy back bling.
Those that aren't as interested in getting the adorable Peely-inspired back bling but would still like to get this month's pack might want to wait until the end of the month and purchase the Fortnite Crew between July 28 and July 30. When a Battle Pass comes to an end and a new one begins, it's not uncommon for players to acquire the Fortnite Crew that month in order to get a refund and then receive the most recent one free of charge; it's the most cost-efficient option.
Fortnite is available for Mobile, PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
