Huge changes are coming to Fortnite's controversial Battle Pass exclusivity, as Epic Games has announced that all future Battle Pass items now have the chance of appearing in the regular Item Shop 18 months after they become inaccessible.
Up until now, everything you unlocked in a Fortnite Battle Pass has been exclusive to that Battle Pass. Each season's pass brings with it new skins, emotes, and more that can only be unlocked by diligently leveling up during that season. It's a great incentive to play plenty of matches for EXP, but it comes with a big drawback – if you miss out at the time, you can never claim those things in the future. This has meant that newer players have missed out on some incredibly popular licensed character skins including Spider-Man, Darth Vader, and Geralt of Rivia, because they were only available for a limited time.
