Fortnite is adding a new “Exact Amount” offer that lets you top up your V-Bucks only by the amount you’re short for an item. If a skin costs 500 V-Bucks and you have 400, you’ll buy just 100 V-Bucks—no forced bundle jump. The feature starts Monday, 14 October 2025, on Android, iPhone, iPad, Nintendo Switch, PC, Xbox and the web Item Shop. Epic says it will work to bring it everywhere; PlayStation isn’t included at launch.
What is “Exact Amount” and how it works
You top up only what you’re missing.
- Works as a checkout option on the V-Bucks page
- Shows suggested top-ups in 50 V-Bucks steps for Fortnite
- Extends to Rocket League and Fall Guys with their own steps
Epic calls it the “Exact Amount” offer. For Fortnite and Rocket League, offers appear in 50-V-Bucks/Credits increments to line up with most item prices. Fall Guys uses 100-unit steps. It’s a small tweak that cuts waste for anyone who only needs a few V-Bucks to complete a purchase.
When and where it launches
Rollout starts 14 October 2025.
- Platforms at launch: Android, iOS/iPadOS, Nintendo Switch, PC, Xbox, and Fortnite’s web Item Shop
- Not at launch: PlayStation (Epic says it’s working to expand availability)
- Applies to Fortnite first, then Rocket League and Fall Guys
For UAE players, that’s 14 October in Gulf Standard Time. If you play on PlayStation in the UAE, you won’t see the option on console on day one; use a different supported platform or the web shop for now.
One-time rounding update to your balance
Balances will be rounded up once before launch.
- Fortnite and Rocket League balances round up to the nearest 50 on 10 October
- Fall Guys balances round up to the nearest 100
- This happens automatically and only once
This balance tidy-up is a housekeeping step so the 50/100-step offers work smoothly on launch day. You don’t need to do anything.
What this means for your wallet in the UAE
Less leftover currency, fewer impulse bundles.
- You won’t need to buy the next bundle size just to cover a 50–150 V-Bucks gap
- Parents get tighter control on small top-ups
- PlayStation users in the UAE may still need the web shop until Sony support lands
It’s not glamorous, but it fixes a pain point. Many players here end up with odd leftovers that never get used or trigger another bundle buy. Exact top-ups reduce that. When PlayStation support arrives, this becomes a universal quality-of-life change.
What about Rocket League and Fall Guys?
The same idea, different steps.
- Rocket League Credits: 50-unit increments
- Fall Guys Show-Bucks: 100-unit increments
- Epic is rolling the offer across all three titles
If you play across Epic’s ecosystem, your buying flow gets consistent. Expect the same “only what you’re missing” logic across items in Rocket League and costumes in Fall Guys.
FAQ
What time does this go live in the UAE?
Why isn’t PlayStation included at launch?
Epic hasn’t given a reason, only that it’s “working to make this available everywhere.” For now, use a supported platform or the web Item Shop.
