Dexerto / Epic GamesAccolades have been a core feature in Fortnite since its inception, offering a quick way to earn XP and level up. Here’s what they are and how to claim them all.
To help players progress, Fortnite provides several ways to earn XP and advance through the Battle Pass, including completing quests, exploring new game modes, earning Survivor Medals, achieving Victory Royales, and collecting Accolades.
In Chapter 2 Remix, Epic has reduced the range of available Accolades for its shorter 30-day season.
Here’s how Accolades function in Fortnite, how to track them, and a full list of every Accolade you can unlock, along with how to obtain each one this season.
What are Accolades and how to get them in a Fortnite match
Epic GamesAccolades are small achievements in Fortnite that are given out automatically for achieving certain goals in a Battle Royale match. You’ll see a notification like the one seen in the image above after you’ve got an accolade and you will then receive XP as your reward.
Above you can see the 500 XP reward for earning the Shotgun Master Accolade for doing 1000 Shotgun damage to enemies during a match. In Fortnite, there are a plethora of Accolades up for grabs, all of which you can accomplish numerous times, but only once per Battle Royale match.
After the match concludes, head to the Match Stats section to view your medals and other Accolades you achieved during that match. However, you can also view your open collections and all the Accolades from the lobby menu.

All Accolades in Fortnite Chapter 2 Remix
There are 132 Accolades in Fortnite Remix, down from 166 in the previous season and 174 the season before that. These are broken down into eight different types depending on how you are to complete them and what items, weapons, or vehicles you will need to use.
