The latest Fortnite Starter Pack is now available to purchase, and it's called the Perfect Execution pack, supplying players with a nice chunk of virtual currency alongside some fresh cosmetic items to customize your character. These packs provide a great route for those who want to add some V-Bucks to their account quickly without spending too much, as they feature an amount of low-cost currency plus unique extras that won't appear in the main Item Shop. If you're looking for more information to decide if the investment is worthwhile, then I've broken down all of the benefits you'll receive if you purchase the Perfect Execution pack.

The latest Fortnite Starter Pack, as mentioned, is the Perfect Execution pack which is live right now as part of Fortnite Season 2 in Chapter 5, and is available on every platform that Fortnite can be played on. The Perfect Execution pack costs $4.49/£3.49 and will get you a solid starting budget of 600 V-Bucks for microtransactions in Fortnite, as well as the Clara outfit (with Lego Fortnite style), Coupé Sash back bling, and Precision Pointe pickaxe. Read on to see exactly what these items look like, and why the Starter pack is worth the money.

Even if you don't plan on equipping these new cosmetic items, this still represents a great value deal for in-game currency alone. There's no set date for how long this Fortnite Starter Pack will be available – the previous bundles were usually on the store for length of their corresponding seasons – but it will be removed eventually, so if you're considering a purchase then don't wait too long before you commit.

I wasn't just guessing with that V-Bucks efficiency talk – here's how the math stacks up for each individual V-Bucks purchase Fortnite offers, taking into account total V-Bucks including "bonuses" for buying in bulk, and rounding to the nearest whole number:

  • 13,500 V-Bucks for $89.99 is 150 V-Bucks per dollar
  • 5,000 V-Bucks for $36.99 is 135 V-Bucks per dollar
  • 2,800 V-Bucks for $22.99 is 122 V-Bucks per dollar
  • 1,000 V-Bucks for $8.99 is 111 V-Bucks per dollar
  • 600 V-Bucks for $4.49 is 134 V-Bucks per dollar

Note that V-Bucks pricing in the United States was adjusted on October 27, 2023 and the above conversions are based on the updated prices.

The ratios work out similarly for GBP and other currencies. As you can see, the Fortnite Perfect Execution Pack gives you the most V-Buck buying power of any option under the 5,000 purchase – which is quite an investment in in-game currency, since you could also use that same amount of cash to buy a whole new game. Or perhaps just an irresponsible amount of pie, if you prefer.

The Fortnite Perfect Execution Pack, on the other hand, is comfortably in "impulse buy" territory even without the Clara outfit (with Lego style) plus matching Coupé Sash back bling and Precision Pointe harvesting tool.

Do note that the Fortnite Perfect Execution Pack can only be purchased once for each account, so it isn't an endless wellspring of in-game currency. And if you'd also like to buy the Battle Pass without grinding for the free Fortnite V-Bucks you occasionally earn, you'll still need to buy extra on top to reach the 950 V-Bucks asking price; in other words, if you're starting with this Fortnite Starter Pack, it won't actually save you any money on the Battle Pass. You can always use those extra V-Bucks to pick up more customisation items though, or put them towards buying the next season's Battle Pass!

Don't forget, if you're a PS5 or PS4 player and PS+ subscriber then you can also grab the latest Fortnite PlayStation Plus Blazin' Wheels Pack, which is free and includes the exclusive Lina Scorch outfit (with Lego style) and Gas Up Pack back bling. Hey, it's always nice to get a little bonus, right?
