Canceling Your Fortnite Crew Subscription

The Fortnite Crew is Epic Games’ subscription model for Fortnite. It essentially rewards players who sign up for a monthly recurring subscription with ongoing bonuses. These include a range of exclusive cosmetic items in the form of Crew Packs, plus access to the game’s Battle Pass.

In addition, the Fortnite Crew subscription awards players with monthly bonus bundles of 1,000 V-Bucks. These can be used to purchase further skins, gliders, and other in-game accessories and items from the Fortnite Item Shop.

While being a member of the Fortnite Crew does benefit players with some unique rewards, it comes at a cost. If for whatever reason you want to opt out of the subscription, you can do so fairly easily.
