Fortnite Reality Augments List: All New Perks & How To Activate Them
There are plenty of ways in which players can increase their chances of winning a match in Fortnite. It can be either by stocking up on the best weapons, landing at the top locations, or simply camping somewhere until the final moments of the match.
However, lately, there has been a brand new way to increase your chances of winning, which comes in the form of Reality Augments. These new perks were added to the Battle Royale title in Chapter 4 Season 1, and provide players with a boost to help them eliminate their enemies and get them over the finish line.
Keep reading this article if you are new to the game and do not have a clear idea as to what Reality Augments are or if you just want a list of every perk you can get in Fortnite. We have covered everything one might need to know regarding this relatively new feature!
What Are Reality Augments In Fortnite?
The Reality Augments are technically Fortnite’s very own version of perks. These Augments give players small gameplay boosts that can help them perform better when in a match. However, they are usually not game-changing advantages.
During regular intervals in each battle royale match in the game, players will be given a choice of Reality Augments. These perks will stack up as the players go on collecting, so the longer one remains in a match, the more perks they will receive.
As of right now, there are 36 Reality Augments in Fortnite that you can be offered during every match, so it is a pretty good idea for players to know what each Augment does to help them make the right choice that might help them get the Victory Royale.

Also, players must remember that the Reality Augments are given to them at random during their matches, so one cannot guarantee that they will always get the ones that they have their eyes on.
However, you will always be given a choice between two Reality Augments. Players can also spend their Gold Bars to re-roll for different ones if they wish to do so. This might end up in you having some pretty powerful perk combinations!
How To Activate Reality Augments In Fortnite
When players have the ability to pick a Reality Augment, a symbol will appear below the minimap. This symbol should also indicate which button you need to press in order to activate Reality Augments in the game.
When you are playing Fortnite on a PS4 and a PS5, the button you should press is Right on the D-pad. This button might differ depending on the console you are using, but it should be something similar to this.
That is everything there is to know about Reality Augments as well as how you can activate them, so go ahead and start exploring the different Augments!
