How to get free skins in Fortnite
It’s no secret that skins in Fortnite can get pretty pricey, especially when they’re part of one of the celebrated crossover events. So it’s no surprise that you’re here, looking for a way to bag some free swag and save some V-Bucks.
And we’re here to help! Though be warned, unlike free cosmetics, free skins in Fortnite are a rare sight.
On this page, you’ll find everything you need to know about any currently available free skins (and past freebies) so you can be ready to grab them at the drop of a hat.
Ho ho, here we go…
To get a free skin in Fortnite…
You’ll have to be on your toes, because Fortnite generally offers free skins as rewards for participating in certain events and completing challenges.
Which means timing and commitment from you if you’re serious about getting that free skin.
Exactly what you’ve got to do can vary…
During Winterfest 2022, you could get Sled Ready Guff and Arctic Adeline just by opening presents in the event – all that took was picking the right present and logging in daily for another free present.
Other free skins take more work, like completing the Find the Force quests to unlock the Star Wars Clone Trooper skin, or ranking high in a crossover cup. And some, like Sultura, are exclusive to players who are members of PS Plus on PS4 or 5.
Can you get free skin codes?
Not often. Free skin codes tend to only happen as part of social media giveaways. We recommend you avoid looking for free codes online as more often than not, it’s a scam.
