Guide: How to Get the Victory Umbrella

To unlock the Victory Umbrella for Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2, follow these steps:

Play Standard Battle Royale Modes

  • Victory Umbrellas can only be earned by winning in the core Battle Royale modes: Solo, Duos, Trios, or Squads.
  • Wins in other modes like Team Rumble, Creative, or Limited Time Modes do not count.

Secure a Victory Royale

  • Players must be the last surviving player or team standing in a Battle Royale match to achieve a Victory Royale.
  • Accomplish this by strategically eliminating all other opponents or by being the last ones in the safe zone when the storm fully closes.

Claim the Victory Umbrella

  • After securing a Victory Royale, players will automatically receive the corresponding Victory Umbrella for that season.
  • The umbrella will be available in the glider section of the player’s locker.

Ranked Victory Umbrella: Pantheon Ranker

In addition to the standard Victory Umbrella (The Olympian), Epic Games also offers a special Ranked variant called the “Pantheon Ranker.”
