Fortnite has just dropped Supercharged XP in Chapter 5, Season 2. Here’s everything you need to know about how to get it and how it works.

So, there’s only about a week left remaining of Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2. And if you haven’t been playing much since the start of the season, it’s likely that the feeling of missing out on all the current Battle Pass skins forever is already starting to creep in.

It’s a scary thought, but don’t worry. Fortnite has just announced that they’ve added Supercharged XP in the game to help out players who need a bump on their Battle Pass level.

Here’s how the Supercharged XP works in Fortnite and how you can use it to your advantage.

Fortnite: How to get Supercharged XP & how it works

Supercharged XP in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 works like an XP boost, allowing you to earn more XP than usual in-game when completing various actions. At the time of writing, players can get Supercharged XP automatically when logging into the game.

But there’s a catch. The Supercharged XP in Fortnite isn’t unlimited. Rather, it’s only active when it comes to gaining several levels this season, meaning that once you’ve racked up a few levels, the Supercharged XP boost will end.

So, don’t expect to be able to level up your Battle Pass from the second page all the way to the end instantly from the Supercharged XP.

While this isn’t an “infinite resource,” it’s undoubtedly still a welcome addition, especially to those who missed out during certain in-game events with quests. 

That said, if you add match quests, weekly quests, LEGO and Fortnite Festival quests and other challenges to the mix, you’ll be able to rack up a lot of XP—even more so when you purchase the Perseus Level Up Quest Pack.

There are also other ways to level up XP quickly. If you’re not a fan of sitting in Battle Royale matches to complete quests, you can also opt to play in Team Rumble. It’s quicker, and you can respawn when you die instead of having to go back to the lobby and queue for the next match.

Additionally, you can earn XP by playing in Creative Maps. Some include a Free for All mode, Red vs. Blue, and many others.
