Until then, Epic has launched its Christmas sale on the Epic Games Store, and to begin with, Hogwarts Legacy is available to claim for free on PC using the EGS app. Furthermore, Epic is also granting a free Harry Potter Chocolate Frog Back Bling to celebrate the release and here’s how you can get it in the game.
How to Unlock Free Harry Potter Back Bling in Fortnite

The Harry Potter Fortnite collab has been leaked for the past few weeks by data miners on social media, and now the Twitter by Epic. The leaks had hinted at potential skins, mythic gameplay items and certain new mechanics coming soon to the game. However, the Chocolate Frog Back Bling is now available to claim in Fortnite for free, and players can get it by simply getting the Hogwarts Legacy game from Epic Games Store on PC for free.
To unlock the back bling, though, you’ll need to play Hogwarts Legacy using the Epic Games Launcher for at least two hours. You’ll only be able to claim this offer until December 18, 2025, after which the back bling and the game itself won’t be available to claim for free.
Check if my Epic Games account is linked between Fortnite and Hogwarts Legacy
It isn’t possible to directly check or change your account links from here, but you can verify it yourself in a couple of minutes.
Check Epic Games account links
Follow these steps on a browser (PC or mobile):
-
Go to the Epic Games sign-in page and log in with the email you use for Fortnite.
-
Open your Account settings, then go to Apps and Accounts or Linked accounts (wording can vary slightly).
-
On this page you will see which platforms and external accounts are currently linked to your Epic account, including any PC platforms you use for Hogwarts Legacy (for example, Epic Games Launcher on PC, PlayStation, Xbox, etc.).
If you play Hogwarts Legacy via the Epic Games Store on the same Epic account as Fortnite, then they are already using the same Epic profile.
Check Hogwarts Legacy / WB Games side
Hogwarts Legacy itself is tied to a WB Games account, which can be connected to your platform (including Epic):
-
Go to the WB Games account site and sign in.
-
Open the section that shows connected / linked platform accounts.
-
Confirm that the platform/launcher you use for Hogwarts Legacy shows the same Epic display name or platform ID you use for Fortnite.
If both places show the same Epic or platform profile, your Fortnite and Hogwarts Legacy activity are effectively tied to the same Epic Games account.
