If you were wondering how to link Rocket League to Fortnite, then look no further. With the new shared inventory that players can access across both Fortnite and Rocket League, it is more important than ever to ensure that your accounts are connected so that you can equip your favorite items and show them off on the race track.

After the release of Rocket League on the Epic Games Launcher, it allowed players to link Rocket League with their Epic Games account. But it’s not so straight forward, so let’s dive in!

Rocket League VS Fortnite

Step by Step – How to link Rocket League to Fortnite

It might not be obvious, as it’s not easy to do it in-game. If you’re unsure of how to link Rocket League to Fortnite, here’s a quick guide:

Head over to Rocket League’s website, click on Manage, and log in to your Epic Games account.
Ensure that you have added your date of birth to your Epic Games account, otherwise you will not be able to link your account.
Now you will be able to link any accounts from different platforms to your Epic Games account.
Once you’ve linked your accounts, you need to select a primary account. Be careful when selecting your primary account – this account’s level, rank and Rocket Pass progress will be used on all of your linked platforms.
Confirm and now you have linked all of your Rocket League accounts together with Fortnite.

Now you’ll be able to access your shared inventory across all platforms and even play Rocket League cross platform.

Any new items earned will go to your primary platform. However, be aware that any credits or Esports Tokens can only be accessed on the platform that they were purchased on and will not be combined.

How to get Rocket League Cars in Fortnite

If you’ve linked your Rocket League account to Fortnite using the steps above, you should now be able to get Rocket League cars and items in Fortnite and Rocket Racing.

The available cars that you can use in Fortnite include: Octane, Cyclone, Jäger 619, Lamborghini Huracán STO, Samurai, Centio, Dominus GT and the new Star Wars Beskar Car.

If you’re confused as to why you can’t find your favorite Rocket League car in Fortnite, it may be because it isn’t available yet. Epic Games announced that they are currently working on importing all of the available cars and items from Rocket League into Fortnite, and so you might have to wait a while until they add in your favorite cars, wheels, boosts and decals.

You can check which items have been made available in Fortnite by looking in your Rocket League inventory or in the item shop. When hovering over an item, look out for a tag that says “This item will also be available in Fortnite”.
