Fortnite Reality Augments Tier List FAQ

Now, we’ll answer any questions you may have about Reality Augments in Fortnite Chapter 4.

What Are Reality Augments?

Reality Augments are a new feature in Fortnite Chapter 4. They’re, effectively, the perks that you collect as you level up in roguelikes like Vampire Survivors. The difference here is that you unlock them automatically as a match progresses, rather than need to level up like in Vampire Survivors.

Other than that, they function pretty similarly. As you can see from the list above, they provide a wide variety of different perks to your character, including granting you weapons, improving your character’s abilities, and instantly kitting out your gear or vehicles.

Ultimately, they provide a fun new method of play in Fortnite, which manages to continue to spruce up its gameplay between chapters.

How do I Unlock Reality Augments?

You don’t need to do anything other than survive. You unlock Reality Augments at regular intervals during a match, so simply surviving will unlock more and more Reality Augments.

However, it’s worth remembering that your opponents will also unlock Reality Augments the longer they survive, so everyone will increase in power by the end of the match.

What Is A Tier List?

A tier list is a list of characters, or Reality Augments in this case, that you can unlock in a game – particularly a gacha game – ordered from best to worst. We rank from S tier to D tier, with S being best and D being worst.

The purpose of a tier list is to help you, the player, determine who the best characters or items to unlock are, so you can save time and money. Once you know who the best characters are, you can form a party out of them and ignore the others.

How Did We Pick Our Fortnite Reality Augments Tier List?

We used a combination of the following factors when deciding on our Reality Augments tier list:

  • Personal experience
  • Community feedback
  • General consensus from other tier lists

However, it’s worth noting that tier lists are subjective by nature. This is based on our experience with the game, but yours may vary. So, we recommend that you take this with a pinch of salt and play Fruits Battlegrounds for yourself.

How Often Do We Update Our Fortnite Reality Augments Tier List?

We update this tier list regularly to ensure that it always follows the latest meta. Typically, you can expect an update around the following happenings:

  • A new Reality Augment releases
  • Balance changes

There may be a small delay between the above two events as we’ll return to the game to check out the new Reality Augment for ourselves, or to see how the balance patches have affected things.
