Ever wondered how you can jump into Fortnite battles on your Nintendo Switch? Let’s dive right into it.
So, you’re looking to play Fortnite online on your Nintendo Switch, right? We’ve got you covered!
Getting Started with Fortnite on Switch
First things first, you need a Nintendo Switch and an internet connection. Then, head over to the Nintendo eShop – it’s like a magical store filled with games just waiting for you.
Search for “Fortnite” in the eShop. It’s free, so all you have to do is download it. Just click on it, hit download, and voila – you’re one step closer to the action!
Jumping into the Battle
Once Fortnite is downloaded, you’re almost ready to play. But before you dive in, you need to make sure you have a Nintendo Account linked to your Nintendo Switch. If you don’t have one, no worries – it’s easy to set up on Nintendo’s website.
Now, with your account ready, launch Fortnite from your Switch home screen. The game will guide you through logging in or creating an Epic Games account if you don’t have one. Linking these accounts means all your progress and purchases are safe – pretty cool, right?
