Fortnite Offers Free Items to PlayStation Plus Members

PlayStation 4 owners who are also PlayStation Plus subscribers can take advantage of a free cosmetic item pack that's ready to be claimed now.

The PS Plus pack is an exclusive to PS4 players, a cosmetic pack with two items included that popped up all of a sudden in the PlayStation Store. Available now to download for free in the PlayStation Store, a description of the PlayStation Plus Celebration Pack is seen through the product's listing with the contents shown in the image above.

"Grab a glider and an outfit to represent your Victory Royale in style with the PlayStation Plus Celebration Pack," the cosmetic pack's description reads.

This pack includes:

• Exclusive Glider
• Exclusive Outfit

The PlayStation exclusive boasts some of the blue and whites that are known from the PlayStation brand, but a comparable cosmetic pack for other platforms hasn't been spotted yet, so it's unclear if the Xbox One and PC versions will receive similar items as well. This PlayStation pack is currently available as of Feb. 14 and doesn't expire until February 2019, at least according to the current end date, so players have plenty of time to pick up the add-on.
