Two-factor authentication or shortly known as 2FA is a common authenticating method that is widely used by videogames, apps and even websites where you need your account to be protected at all times. Fortnite Battle Royale is no exception to this because of the items you have on your account can worth up to $500 especially if you’re playing the game for a long time. Also, Fortnite is a game where over 10 million people play daily so when you have that much of players, you need to keep the accounts safe so there wouldn’t be incidents of the account getting stolen every once in a while.
Enabling two-factor authentication is easy and takes little to no time. There are two ways to login on your account with the two-factor-authentication. The most common one being via e-mail and other is through an authentication app such as Google Authenticator, Authy, LootPass Authenticator, etc.
We highly recommend enabling this feature not only because it gives your account another way to secure it other than a standard password, but Epic Games has a lot of events where it requires your account to have this feature enabled otherwise you won’t be able to participate in them.
