A new Fortnite XP exploit often used by hardcore grinders and account sellers has just been leaked on X (formerly Twitter) as players surge to try out the new game hack.

X user @LHibou8 posted on Sunday detailed instructions of how the in-game exploit works, calling out against "gatekeepers and hardcore grinders" for keeping the method under wraps.

The exploit supposedly allows players to receive 200,000 experience points per game, reaching achievements more easily and earning rewards much faster.

Best of all, the method is currently not grounds for an account ban and can be done infinitely.

Fortnite EXP Hack: How Does it Works

According to @LHibou8, the XP exploit works through the botted lobbies and the current map's "Wasteland Challenges" during the first few matches of a starting account.

Players simply need to create a below Level 5 alternate account and join a "Squad" match with the player's real account.

Once the game begins, make the alt account leave the game while the real account drops on one of the designated "Wasteland Challenges" areas.

The "Wasteland Challenges" itself does not affect the number of experience points gained, although finding the preferred challenge can help optimize the time needed to accomplish the challenges.

User @LHibou provided a brief explanation on how each challenge can be beaten easily.

Once the challenge begins, the players just need to "go and kill the maximum of bots possible." It is recommended to not finish any of the knocked enemies to get bonus points from a team kill.

To maximize the experience points earned, simply destroy all items encountered and collected. Once done, all the players need a "Victory Royale."

Since Fortnite's early game lobbies are filled with bots to ease players into the game, it would be much easier to obtain a win compared to ranked games and higher-level matches.

Fortnite Players Push Back Against XP Exploit 'Leak'

While newer Fortnite players are enjoying the new XP exploit, longtime players are dismissing the strategy as an open secret rather

Reported game exploits are often patched out to make the game more balanced, a policy also present in Fortnite.

Keeping the exploit unreported helps retain strategies built with the exploit in mind, especially with Fortnite releasing less-than-stellar gameplay changes over the past months.

According to several players, many forms of the XP exploit have bugged Fortnite since the "Chapter 2" release in 2020.
