If a friend has received an invite, he or she will soon receive friend invite codes as well. Once received, the player will be given directions by the Fortnite team for sharing those invites with friends. It is unclear when friend codes will begin rolling out, but we'll update this post once they do. If you've received a Fortnite Mobile invite but haven't received any friend invites, those will be coming in a separate email, so keep an eye out for them in the upcoming day.
