Fortnite Chapter 3: How the Victory Crown works

The Victory Crown is a new mechanic that was introduced to Fortnite in Chapter 3 Season 1. This is used to show who is the best player in a lobby, who is on a winning streak, and other information. A Victory Crown will be awarded to players who place high enough in a match. They will then wear the crown during their next match, revealing who the true leader of the pack is.

Players will get bonus XP if they manage to keep the Victory Crown, but its gleaming beauty will undoubtedly draw other players who will try to steal it from you. If a player wins while wearing the crown, they will receive a special Emote that displays the total number of Crowned Victory Royales they have won over the Season.

Victory Crowns can be found in the fundamental modes of Solo, Duos, Trios, and Squads. The following is how the crowns are won:

• Solo: Top four players
• Duos: Players in the top two teams
• Trios: Players in the top team
• Squads: Players in the top team
