Fortnite Is Giving Away Pickle Rick For Free, Cursing Us All
Rick and Morty is a massively popular series. Every time I have to accept this reality, it’s like having to confront my own mortality. It’s surreal, it’s vaguely unpleasant, but I’m a better person for it afterwards (I think). Anyway, here’s how to get Pickle Rick as a cosmetic in Fortnite.
Big reveal! We've added a pickle to Fortnite.

Starting from today, you can complete Horde Rush Quests for battle pass experience points. Once you’ve finished up eight quests, you can unlock the Pickle Rick back bling for free. Some of these quests are as simple as hitting a specific score, damaging cube monsters, or opening chests. Here’s the full list of quests (thanks, GameSpot!). Remember, you only have to complete eight of the nine.

Horde Rush is a limited-time game mode where players work with their friends to defeat waves of monsters. After completing three Encounters, they’ll fight a final boss together. The goal is to rack up as many points as you can, which can be easier if you pick up score multipliers on the map. This season of Horde Rush comes with Zero Build, which is great news for folks who don’t want to think about resource gathering and building entire houses while they’re trying to have a shootout.
