What is the Rift Fortnite Modded Server?

There have been numerous videos online from content creators joining some new Fortnite Private Server on their PCs. The Private server has been called Rift and it is currently available in beta. For those unaware, it allows fans to access endless Fortnite skins, cosmetics, emotes, and various other items. Players can equip any of their favourite skins along with other preferred items before they get into the game when using the private server. It allows players to get into Solo and Party Royale mode as of now.

As noted earlier, the Rift private server is currently in beta, with speculations and online rumours suggesting that there could be an addition of previous Fortnite seasons as well. Once that happens, fans might be able to play earlier seasons with Rift.

It should be noted that Fornite Rift Private Server is independent of Epic Games servers. This is one of the reasons you wouldn’t find any official news on the mod from Fortnite developers. Also, it doesn’t allow players to gift items to their own account or other accounts as it is a private server. However, the process only works on Windows PC. It is not supported by gaming consoles such as PlayStation or Xbox Series. It also doesn’t support Nintendo Switch or mobile devices.
