Fortnite, the iconic video game from Epic Games, is best known for its Battle Royale mode, which allows players to compete across a huge map, in search of the only winner (or the winning team).

Preliminary information
Before going into the details of the procedure on how to have Save the World in Fortnite, I think it may interest you to know more about this mode of the famous title Epic Games.
Well, Save the World is none other than one campaign co-op PvE (Player vs Environment). In other words, users do not compete against each other, as is the case in Battle Royale, but rather help each other to defeat some enemies controlled by artificial intelligence.
Put simply, the task of the players is to fend off hordes of monsters, exploring a huge game world and taking advantage of one of the peculiar characteristics of Fortnite, which is the ability to build structures.
In short, it is practically a different game from the Epic Games title that many users have come to know, although obviously it shares its basic mechanics. In any case, one of the reasons that led to the success of the Battle Royale mode is the fact that it is participation.
Save the worldinstead, it is paid. In fact, it is not possible to play this mode without it buy it with real money. On the other hand, the players who first trusted Fortnite will remember the fact that Save the World represents a bit of what the Epic Games title was originally.
In fact, you should know that, before the great success of the free Battle Royale, Fortnite only had Save the World. Then the "driving" mode of Fortnite was the Battle Royale, given that the latter is in fact much more competitive and dynamic than Save the world. However, there are players who appreciate the latter as well, as it represents different gameplay and can offer fun gameplay sessions.
On the other hand, the hordes of enemies are a great classic of the world of video games and face them with your friends often guarantees carefree moments, while allowing you to improve your performance on Fortnite and go beyond the classic games that everyone plays.
I therefore understand why you want to "get your hands" on Save the World, and in fact in this tutorial I will examine all the methods to "unlock" it, going into detail on the possibilities relating to the various platforms.
How to have Fortnite's Save the World
After explaining what it is, I'd say it's time to take action and show you how to actually “unlock” Fortnite's Save the World mode. Below you can find all the details of the case, broken down by platform.
How to have Save the World on PS4
If you usually play Fortnite from consul, this is the chapter of the tutorial for you. In fact, I am going to explain to you how to get the Save the World mode from this type of platform. To give you a concrete example, I will consider PlayStation 4. However, if you are wondering how to have Save the World on Xbox One, in reality the procedure is very similar.
In fact, the instructions to follow are very simple: just open the game and, when the screen appears choice of mode (after a few seconds), press on the box Save the world, instead of the classic "Battle Royale".
By doing so, the Epic Games title will illustrate the possibility of buy mode. For any doubts regarding the terms of payment, I recommend that you consult my tutorial on how to pay on PlayStation Store, in which I went into detail on a bit of everything you need to know about it.
In any case, I would like to clarify that, unlike what happens with other aesthetic elements, it is not possible to buy the Save the World mode through the V-Buck, or the virtual currency of the game. Indeed, it is necessary purchase this content for real money.
Otherwise, now that you know how to get Save the World mode, you shouldn't have too much trouble reaching your goal, as it's all very simple. If you have already purchased some content for your console, essentially nothing changes, except the fact that you have entered the game and then get "sent" to the official digital store.
In any case, I want to clarify that it is possible to buy, directly from the PlayStation Store, a 15,99 euros for the Robo-Ray Package, that includes Save the World mode and other exclusive aesthetic elements. In short, you might also be interested in taking a look at this possibility, which I will illustrate in more detail in the next chapter.
How to have Save the World on Nintendo Switch
Fortnite has arrived on Nintendo Switch "Late" compared to other consoles. In fact, if PlayStation 4 and Xbox One already had the Epic Games title in 2022, the Japanese company's console "received" the game only in 2022.
Surprisingly, once the title arrived on this platform, users found that Save the World cannot be purchased in this version of the game. Over the years, the most disparate theories have emerged online as to why Fortnite is "limited" from this point of view on Nintendo Switch.
The reality is that no official information has ever arrived on the matter and, therefore, unless unexpected upheavals, it is good to "put your soul in peace" or buy the mode and play it from other platforms.
How to have Save the World on PC
If you typically play Fortnite from computer, the procedure for “unlocking” Save the World mode is nothing complicated.
In fact, everything works in a similar way to what I illustrated in the chapter dedicated to consoles: just select the appropriate mode box Save the world in "startup phase" of the game and follow the instructions that appear on the screen, possibly adding a valid payment method and confirming the transaction.
In any case, there is also a possible "alternative approach" that passes through the browser or the Microsoft Store of Windows 10if you prefer. In fact, for 15,99 € you can buy the Robo-Ray package, which includes the Save the World mode,Robo-Ray hero, Robo-Ray costume, decorative back Injector by Blub, Raystructor pickaxe and Robo-Ray challenges, i.e. the assignments within Save the World that they can guarantee up to 1.000 V-Bucks and 1.000 X-ray tickets.
To purchase this package on Windows 10, just open the Microsoft Store, search “fortnite robo-ray”, set the filter selection on Available in All devices and press on the box bundle. After that, all you have to do is click on the button Buy Now and complete the transaction.
Alternatively, you can play from the Epic Games official website by pressing the button BUY NOW, Selecting Europe like Country / Territory e PC / Mac like platform and clicking the button BUY NOW.
You will then be prompted to login with your Epic Games account, possibly setting a valid payment method and completing the transaction. You will then find all the elements related to the bundle the next time you start the game.
How to have Save the World on smartphones and tablets
How do you say? You would like to "unlock" the mode Save the world on smartphones and tablets? I'll explain the situation immediately!
Well, unfortunately, as indicated below in the official Epic Games portal, this mode it is not available for mobile devices. The developers have never clarified in detail the reasons that led to this choice, but it is assumed that it is technical or market issues.
In short, unless there are sudden changes of direction, those who usually play on the move cannot access this PvE co-op campaign. However, I remind you that from this platform you can always enjoy the Battle Royale mode.
Also, if you're really planning on playing Save the World, you might want to consideruse of another platform (I remind you, for example, that on PC Fortnite you can also play through NVIDIA GeForce Now, thus taking advantage of the Internet connection and not the hardware performance).
For the rest, since you are a fan of the Epic Games title, I would recommend that you take a look at the page of my site dedicated to Fortnite, where you can find many other tutorials that may interest you, even as an inspiration for your own game sessions.
