Wondering why your V-Bucks aren’t popping up after a Fortnite update? It’s a common question, and you’re not alone in asking it. Let’s get to the bottom of this mystery together.

So, simply put, you’ve updated Fortnite, and your V-Bucks seem to have pulled a vanishing act. Why did this happen, and what can you do about it? Keep reading to find out.

Short Answer: It’s Usually a Sync Issue

Most of the time when V-Bucks don’t show up after an update, it’s because of a synchronization problem between your game account and the Fortnite servers. This hiccup often fixes itself.

Patience is key. Give it a little time. But, if your V-Bucks still aren’t showing after a few hours, restarting the game or checking your internet connection might help speed things up. If that doesn’t work, reaching out to Epic Games’ support is your next best step.
