Epic Games is celebrating the onset of a new season with a quirky new emote in Fortnite known as the Nanner Ringer, and players are quite curious to learn more about how they can redeem it before it expires.

The new Fortnite season has had a shaky start with a series of hiccups marring the big events Epic Games had in store for fans. Thankfully, the developers have been quite generous in compensating fans for the issues they faced, and a series of freebies were handed out. The Nanner Ringer is one of them, which involves the character using a banana as a mobile phone. While it might sound like a weird concept, it has quickly become a sensation in the community. And, of course, it's Fortnite, so one should always expect the unexpected.

How to Redeem the Free Banana Phone Emote Code

The redemption process for the Banana Phone emote in Fortnite, aka Nanner Ringer, is pretty straightforward, yet players have been facing issues in getting it. Although all players need to do to get the emote is redeem a code, it can be a bit tricky to find the website where players need to enter the code. Many players have tried redeeming it on the Epic Games Store redemption page, but the code doesn't work there.

Additionally, some phishing links have been making rounds on social media as well, and players need to be careful about that. So, where exactly do players need to redeem the code?

• Head to the fortnite.com/redeem. Players can search for it on Google, and it should be the first search result.
• Players then should log in to their Epic Games Account. It should be noted that this account should be the same one on which players want the rewards and play Fortnite; otherwise, the code will get redeemed on a different account.
• Enter the code "BANANNANANANA"
• A dialog will pop up, which will ask the user to confirm the item they want to add to their account.
• Upon acceptance, the Nanner Ringer emote will be added to the player's account.

How Long Is the Nanner Ringer Code Available?

Unlike some of the other freebies that Epic Games gives out to players, the Nanner Ringer doesn't have an expiry date as such. Instead, it is tied to the number of redemptions that will occur over a period of time. Once it has been redeemed 25 million times, the code will no longer work for players.

It should be noted that players might redeem the code on multiple accounts, so that makes the 25 million redemptions not a far-fetched number to achieve. The good news is that only around 3 million redemptions have been reached so far, so players looking for multiple of these emotes can easily redeem them across multiple accounts.
