How to Claim Squid Grounds Twitch Drop Rewards for Fortnite
To earn the Twitch Drop rewards celebrating the launch of Squid Grounds, players will need to tune into any live stream in the Fortnite category on Twitch for a certain amount of time starting June 27 at 9 AM ET. There are a total of four rewards available, each requiring players to watch eligible livestreams for a specific duration. The rewards and their watch time requirements are as follows:
- The Games Banner Icon – Watch Fortnite livestreams on Twitch for 30 minutes
- Cuddly Games Spray – Watch Fortnite livestreams on Twitch for 1 hour
- Guarded Games Spray – Watch Fortnite livestreams on Twitch for 1 hour and 30 minutes
- Ddakji Flip Emoticon – Watch Fortnite livestreams on Twitch for 2 hours
Once users have watched for the specified amount of time, they can manually claim their rewards by heading over to their Drops & Rewards Inventory on Twitch. Upon manually claiming each reward, they should immediately be awarded inside Fortnite right away. However, this can take upwards of 14 days in some circumstances. Users will also have until June 29 at 11:59 PM ET to claim all rewards. Afterward, they may very well return through the Item Shop at a later date.
