FULL STORY
======================================================================

 Fortnite is about to get more expensive for many players who like to indulge 
in the battle royales in-game purchases, as its been confirmed that a new 
pricing alignment will increase the cost of V-Bucks and real-money item packs 
from next month in several countries. 

Announced in a post on the Fortnite blog yesterday (Wednesday, September 27), 
it was revealed that the pricing changes will come into effect on Friday, 
October 27. Theyll affect players in the United States (including all 
storefronts which use USD), Japan, Denmark, the Czech Republic, Hungary, 
Norway, Poland, Sweden, Turkey and Romania. 

In the United States, 1,000 V-Bucks will soon cost $8.99 (up from $7.99), 
while a pack of 2,800 will cost $22.99 (currently $19.99). As for the larger 
packs, 5,000 V-Bucks will go from $31.99 to $36.99, and the enormous 13,500 
pack will be raised from $79.99 to $89.99. 

Beyond the V-Buck price increases, multiple packs of items that can only be 
purchased using real money rather than in-game currency will get more 
expensive, too. These include the Extinction Code Pack (going from $3.99 to 
$4.49) and the Untaskd Courier Pack (increasing from $15.99 to $17.99). 

Otherwise, the post confirms that the Transformers Pack, Skull Squad Pack, 
Graveyard Drift Quest Pack, Saint Academy Quest Pack and The Final Reckoning 
Pack will be subject to price adjustments when theyre next available for 
purchase. However, it doesnt clarify how much theyll cost. 

These changes follow similar alterations which were made to prices in the 
United Kingdom, Mexico and Canada in July. The monthly Fortnite Crew 
subscription cost remains unaffected, much like it was in Julys adjustments.
