I get a PC for Christmas and want to play Fortnite on it. However, I have created my account on the Nintendo Switch account and still play there. How can I transfer a Fornite Switchaccount to the pc? Do I just have to download Fortnite on the PC and log in there or do I have to do something else? And when that happens, Switch players shouldn't have to wait any longer than the PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4 players to be able to access it. With all of that exposition, the goal of this petition is to show Epic Games that there are Fortnite Players out there who want the Save The World Mode to be playable on Nintendo Switch.

How to get Fortnite on a Nintendo Switch

There are 'physical copies,' so to speak, of Fortnite, but there's not a physical game cartridge inside. Inside the case, you'll find a digital code along with some in-game extras (the extra things are what you are actually paying for when you buy a 'physical copy' of the game).

The easiest way to get Fortnite on a Nintendo Switch is to download it directly from the Nintendo eShop. After accessing your Nintendo eShop, you'll do a quick search for Fortnite and start the free download. After it downloads, you'll have to either link an existing Epic Games account or create a new account. Then, you can start playing!

If you already have an Epic Games account and you've already played Fortnite on your PC, PS4, or any other platform the game is offered on, here's some great news: the game offers crossplay, so no matter which platform you choose to play on, you'll always pick up where you left off. All your game progress and user data is saved to your Epic Games cloud and synced across all devices and platforms. So your friends list, your progress, your purchased content – pretty much everything except for V-bucks – will always sync up with your various devices.

There are some multiplayer games on the Nintendo Switch that require you to have a Switch Online membership. A lot of Nintendo exclusives require this; just to name a few, Splatoon 2, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and Super Smash Bros. Minecraft java down.

When Nintendo initially launched the Switch Online service, Fortnite was specifically listed as one of the games that did not require a Switch Online membership.
