I was watching a Duo match clip where the final shot turned a messy scramble into a silent, ridiculous celebration — someone pulled the Enticing Pie and everyone laughed. I grabbed my controller, because that silly emote felt like a tiny, deserved prize after a long losing streak. You can get that same little victory without spending a cent if you know where to aim.
I’ve chased Showdown rewards across seasons, signed in and tested the timing for you. Follow these clear steps and you’ll have the Enticing Pie emote in your Locker once the system validates your win. Think of it like finding a slice of pie at the end of a maze.
I saw streamers race the clock for one last win — How to get the Enticing Pie emote for free
The Enticing Pie emote is a Week 3 reward in the Fortnite Showdown global leaderboard event run by Epic Games. You earn it by securing a Victory Royale in any core Battle Royale mode (Solo, Duos, Trios, Squads) or Zero Build while registered to the Showdown site. It’s not an in-game quest reward — you must connect your Epic Games account to the event page so the system can track and validate your win.
How do I get the Enticing Pie emote for free?
Quick steps you can follow right now:
- Open the official Fortnite Showdown website and sign in with your Epic Games account.
- Choose a side: Team Foundation or Team Ice King (this ties your wins to the global leaderboard).
- Play any core Battle Royale mode or Zero Build and secure a Victory Royale.
- Wait for the Showdown site to validate the win — that can take between 1 and 24 hours — then check your Locker for the Enticing Pie emote.

Once you get the Victory Royale, the Showdown backend validates matches against your Epic account. Validation is automatic but not instant: give it up to a day. If the site is logged to the right account and your win meets the event rules, the emote appears in your Locker without manual claiming. If you play on console, PC, or mobile, this process is the same; the important part is account linkage.
When is the last day to claim the Enticing Pie emote?
The Showdown Week 3 rewards, including Enticing Pie, are available through April 16, 2026, at 7 AM ET. After that cut-off the global leaderboard event ends and the free claim window closes. If you’re juggling schedules, pick a session before the deadline — the clock is unforgiving in events like this.
Will the Enticing Pie emote be available in the Item Shop?
Epic Games hasn’t announced an Item Shop appearance for Enticing Pie. That means the surest path right now is to earn it through Showdown. The community (Reddit threads, Fortnite Twitter, and Twitch creators) will flag any later shop drops, so keep an eye on official channels if you’d rather wait and pay.
I scanned community chatter and patched together tips — Quick troubleshooting and pro tips
- Double-check your Epic Games account is the same one you use to play. Mismatched accounts are the most common reason rewards don’t appear.
- If validation takes longer than 24 hours, check the Showdown site login and your match history; then contact Epic support or raise the issue on Fortnite’s official Twitter or support page.
- If you stream or clip your wins, tagging the match with platform details (PC/console/mobile) can speed community help when you ask creators for guidance.
- Keep playing core modes and Zero Build — a single Victory Royale is all you need.
This emote is a small, playful badge you can wear in the lobby — like a paper crown after a backyard victory — and it’s free if you commit to a single clean win. Are you going to chase the pie before the deadline or wait to see if Epic sells it later?
