Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 is shaping up to be an excellent addition to the game's roster of epic seasons, taking players to a hero-themed island where they can wield powerful items like Storm Beast's Pom Poms, alongside other unique additions, such as the ability to become Superman. Of course, like every season before it, it's also highly competitive, with players able to earn rewards for their efforts.
While players don’t have long left to claim all of their ranked rewards, those interested in Fortnite’s competitive scene may be keeping up with the FNCS, which is entering its Major 3 Finals for 2025. To celebrate, players can earn two exclusive Twitch Drop rewards just for tuning in. Here’s how to get the FNCS Major 3 Twitch Drop rewards in Fortnite.
Due to an issue with players being unable to claim the FNCS Coin Emoticon, players can now claim it on July 26, alongside the Neon Nightblade Pickaxe. The FNCS Charger Back Bling has also been replaced with the Route Kit Back Bling for the Major 3 Finals rewards.
How to Get the Free Gold Crush Boost in Fortnite
Fortnite players can now claim the free Gold Rush Boost for a limited time, though doing so requires another free-to-play game. Here is how.
How to Link Epic & Twitch Accounts to Claim FNCS Major 3 Twitch Drops
Following the trend of previous Twitch Drop rewards, players will need to link their Twitch account to their Epic Games account in order to claim the FNCS Major 3 Twitch Drops. This is a one-time setup, meaning that if players have already completed the process, they can immediately begin watching eligible streams to earn their rewards. However, for those who haven’t linked the two accounts yet, follow these quick steps:
- Head to the Accounts page on Fortnite’s official website.
- Go to the Linked Accounts tab.
- Locate the Twitch tab and select the Link option.
- Sign in to your Twitch account to complete the linking process.
How to Get FNCS Major 3 Twitch Drop Rewards in Fortnite
There are two unique items that players can get inside Fortnite for free for a limited time starting July 20: the FNCS Coin Emoticon and the FNCS Charger Back Bling. To earn them, players will need to tune into the FNCS Major 3 Group Stage and Finals, which will be broadcast over on Fortnite's official Twitch Channels via twitch.tv/fortnite and twitch.tv/brasil_fortnite.
To earn the FNCS Coin Emoticon, users will need to tune into the Group Stage broadcasts for a total of 60 minutes, which will go live every day from July 20 to July 27. Here is a breakdown of when each Major 3 Group Stage broadcast takes place:
|
Group 1 (July 20)
|
Group 2 (July 26)
|
Group 3 (July 3)
|
On the other hand, to claim the FNCS Charger Back Bling, players will need to tune into the Major Finals over on Twitch for 60 minutes, which will go live on August 2 and August 3. Here is when to expect both broadcasts:
-
Finals Day 1 (August 2)
- EU: Live from 9:30 AM to 2 PM ET
- NA: Live from 4:45 PM to 9 PM ET
- BR: Live from 4 PM to 7 PM ET
-
Finals Day 2 (August 3)
- EU: Live from 10:45 AM to 3 PM ET
- NA: Live from 4:45 PM to 9 PM ET
- BR: Live from 3 PM to 6 PM ET
Once users have watched either broadcast for the required amount of time, they can head over to their Drops Inventory on Twitch and select the “Claim” option to receive each reward. Upon doing so, both the FNCS Coin Emoticon and the FNCS Charger Back Bling should be made available when players next log into Fortnite. However, in specific cases, this can take up to 14 days.
While both the FNCS Coin Emoticon and the FNCS Charger Back Bling are only available for free for a limited time, they may return in the Fortnite Item Shop at a later date.
