How To Recover Deleted Fortnite Account (Step-By-Step)

If you've accidentally deleted your Fortnite account or changed your mind shortly after requesting deletion, there's still a chance to recover it—but time is critical. In this video, you'll learn how to recover a deleted Fortnite account using Epic Games' official process. It's important to understand the timeframe and steps involved so you don't lose access permanently. When you request to delete your Fortnite account through Epic Games, it enters a 14-day deactivation phase. During this time, your account is *not yet permanently deleted*, and you can still recover it simply by logging back in. However, if those 14 days pass, the deletion becomes permanent and the account—including all your in-game purchases, friends, and progress—cannot be restored through standard login methods. Unlike some platforms that offer 30-day grace periods, Epic Games only provides a 14-day window. To recover your account within that 14-day period, go to [https://www.epicgames.com](https://www.epicgames.com) and click the 'Sign In' button at the top right. Use your existing credentials—email and password—to log in. If successful, your account will be reactivated automatically. But if it's been more than 14 days or if login fails, the process becomes more manual. In that case, you'll need to contact Epic Games support. Head to [https://www.epicgames.com/help/en-US/...](https://www.epicgames.com/help/en-US/..., then submit a support ticket. Select 'Fortnite' as the product, choose 'Account Issues' or 'Other', and provide detailed information about your account. In the description, be clear and polite—something like "I deleted my account and it's been over 14 days. I no longer have access and would like to know if recovery is possible." Include details like your account username, email address, and any prior purchase receipts if available. Once submitted, Epic’s support team typically replies within 24 to 48 hours.
