Now, we know Wolfiez may be on a mission to spice up the “stale” Fortnite esports scene, but he might need to take a break to dive into this battle royale’s Horde Rush LTM. Why? Well, because Fortnite is giving away a free Pickle Rick back bling to players who can complete a series of eight Horde Rush challenges in the next two weeks. If you’ve finished setting up your Fortnite VPN and you want to know exactly what you need to do to get this free Pickle Rick back bling in-game, then you’re in the right place. We have everything you need to know below.

As mentioned above, you’re going to need to tackle a series of eight in-game challenges related to Fortnite’s Horde Rush LTM if you want to get your hands on the Pickle Rick back bling. These aren’t going to be too difficult, but they will take some time. However, you will also earn some bonus XP for each one – so, it could be worse.

Specifically, here’s everything you need to do to unlock the free Pickle Rick back bling in Fortnite:

  • Eliminate Cube Monsters (500)
  • Open chests in Horde Rush (45)
  • Collect score multipliers (20)
  • Eliminate ranged Cube Monsters with Sideways weapons (100)
  • Earn an x50 KO streak (1)
  • Get headshots on Cube Monsters in a single match (70)
  • Deal melee damage to Cube Monster spawners (6,000)
  • Earn 2,000,000 combined team points (2,000,000)
  • Earn a Team Score of at least 350,000 in a single match (350,000)

Now, we know that’s one more than eight challenges, but that just means you don’t have to finish all of them to get your hands on the free Pickle Rick back bling in Fortnite. However, you will still earn a bundle of 20,000 XP for each one of these you finish. So, it will be worth trying to do them all, anyway.

But, that’s all there is to it. Play enough Horde Rush in Fortnite over the next two weeks and you should be able to get your hands on the free Pickle Rick back bling with ease. With the goat from Goat Simulator 3 getting her own Fortnite skin, we can’t think of a more unusual combination of cosmetics as we head into the next chapter and beyond.
