In January 2026, Brazilian Fortnite players continue their search for exclusive items without opening their wallets. Therefore, the release of new promotional codes by Epic Games is always an event awaited with great expectation. However, for the first week of this year, the situation has not yet changed: there are no new free codes available. The company maintains its selective standard for releasing these rewards, which can range from rare skins to V-Bucks currency, essential for purchases in the game’s store.
The absence of new keys at the beginning of the month, however, is no reason for discouragement. Due to the unpredictable nature of Epic’s promotions, the situation can change at any time. Therefore, stay alert for opportunities that frequently arise as compensation for game errors, during special events, or in partnerships with other brands. Additionally, the method for redeeming these benefits remains accessible both through the official website and directly in the platform stores, whether PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, or PC.
How to redeem and what to do with old codes
For those who already have a code or will get one soon, the process is simple and quick. Just access the Epic Games redemption website, log in with your account, and enter the character sequence in the indicated field. If the code is valid, the items will be credited immediately to your account, ready for use in battle. On the other hand, if you try a code and it doesn’t work, it has probably already expired. Still, it’s worth a try, as some promotional codes from annual events may become active again later.
The golden tip to not miss anything is to stay tuned to official social media and specialized websites, which usually update the lists as soon as a new code appears. Since the validity is usually short, acting quickly is essential to secure your prize. Therefore, even without news at the beginning of January 2026, the hunt for free items in Fortnite continues to be a fun part of the experience for millions of players in Brazil.
