Fortnite 2nd Birthday was an event that celebrated Fortnite's 2nd birthday, which lasted until the start of Season X. Players were tasked with a short set of challenges that rewarded a Wrap, Lobby Music, Spray, Emoticon, and after completing all four challenges, you would earn a Pickaxe.
Even if not directly participating, players could eat the cake slices scattered around the map to receive +5 health and +5 shield instantly when consumed. Also, the Battle Bus sported a birthday theme for a limited time, and the Save the World mode recieved a new Hero, plus special birthday tickets.
