Fortnite players desperate for old Battle Passes after missing them years ago
Epic GamesPlayers have shared which Battle Pass they regret not getting the most in Fortnite’s storied history. From the ones that feature a certain anime character to an OG skin, the list goes on.
Not everyone was fortunate enough to take part in Fortnite when it first came out in 2017. Despite the game receiving a whole lot of updates in terms of graphics, skins, features, and so much more, one thing that has been certain is the addition of a new Battle Pass in every season.
For every Battle Pass, players can grind their way to unlock new cosmetics that are only available for that particular season. Though this means that once the season is over, those cosmetics are gone along with the Battle Pass as a new one replaces it.
One player recently started a Reddit thread asking others what Battle Pass they regret missing out on the most. For the OP, it was Chapter 4, Season 2 Battle Pass, since it featured Eren Jaeger from Attack on Titan.
Others quickly joined in to pour out their frustration regarding previous Battle Passes that they didn’t purchase or even didn’t get to finish.
“I regret not starting to play the game when Vader was in the Battle Pass,” one user replied. Star Wars skins have been in Fortnite for quite a while, but so far, only the Mandalorian, Ahsoka Tano, and Darth Vader are locked in the Battle Pass.
Meanwhile, another user mentioned regretting not completing the Chapter 3, Season 4 Battle Pass because of Spider Gwen. “Didn’t realize her hood off was another couple of levels to grind. The disappointment was too real,” they explained.
“Whatever season Mystique was in. Play a lot of trios, and we would love to complete and play as the Gambit, Rogue, Mystique family,” another chimed in.
On the other hand, one user regretted not getting a pass until the fourth season despite playing since the beginning. This meant they missed out on getting the highly sought-after OG Renegade Raider and extremely rare Aerial Assault Trooper skin.
Ultimately, the whole thread eventually led to some responses begging Epic to bring back old Battle Passes to the game. One user shared, “I see other games leave their passes up all the time. I don’t see why it can’t happen here.”
They explained that they understand the exclusivity but believe “some would be willing to pay double for an older season pass.”
With all that in mind, here’s a quick reminder to complete your match and weekly quests if you plan on completing the current season’s Battle Pass. Once it’s gone, there’s no way to get this season’s exclusive cosmetics back.
