Custom Matchmaking

Custom Matchmaking is a Game Mode in Fortnite: Battle Royale. It can be used to play any game mode of Fortnite: Battle Royale but only with those who use the same code. Only those who requested access to the feature from Epic Games, when being a popular streamer/YouTuber etc. can host a Custom Matchmaking Lobby.

It's widely known by content creators for fashion shows, hide-and-seek, and other custom Game Modes where it is not possible in Creative. In competitive, professionals use this for scrims (simulating a Tournament match). Third party tournament organizers use this to host tournaments not in the Compete tab.

How to get Custom Matchmaking
To get Custom Matchmaking, you must have at least 1000 followers/subscribers on any social media platform, (Twitch, Twitter, TikTok, YouTube, etc.). Then you must contact Epic Games for access to it.

How it works
The host of a custom matchmaking game will put in any code that they want. Anyone can join this private game if they have the right code. Only the host can start the match/ end it.
