Protect not only your precious personal information but your Fornite account as well. If you think enabling 2fa on your Fortnite account will give you hardships each time you log in, get your facts straight. Epic Games will only ask for the 2fa verification code when you’re logging in a new device other than the usual device you’re playing at or after not being logged in to your Fortnite account for more than 30 days. This adjustment that Epic made makes everything easier compared to other platforms that use multi-factor-authentication.

So how do you enable 2fa on your Fortnite account? Just follow the easy steps listed below.

1. Log in to your Fortnite account from https://fortnite.com/2fa
2. Click on Account Settings up top.
3. From the left menu, choose Password&Security.
4. Scroll down and click on Enable 2fa.
5. Now we came to the part where you need to make a decision. Choose either an e-mail path to receive the 6-digit verification code or download an Authenticator App that is used by Fortnite such as
   1. Google Authenticator
   2. Authy
   3. LastPass Authenticator
   4. Microsoft Authenticator
6. Once you select the method you want to receive your 2fa code, enter the 6-digit code to Epic Games website and there you have it!

What are the benefits of 2fa?

Now that you’ve successfully enabled 2fa, let’s talk about the benefits of this. You not only have increased the security of your account but even if your password falls on the wrong hands, nobody will ever have access to your Fortnite account other than yourself. Whenever someone tries to log in and fail, which they will since only you have the 2fa verification, you will receive an e-mail that informs you about it so you can change your password.
