Fortnite skins and outfits are among the most popular cosmetics in all of gaming, and the new Chapter 1 Season 1 skins are worth bugging out over.
New Fortnite seasons always introduce new IPs and original outfits for players to look forward to, and the same is true for Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 1.
Chapter 7 Season 1 has already been around for a few weeks, which is more than enough time for Epic Games to flood the Item Shop and battle pass with new outfits. Every few days, there are new skins added to the game, and that will continue all season long.
The battle pass introduced skins like Marty McFly, and others, such as Kim Kardashian, have been added to the Item Shop for general purchase. Here’s everything that’s been added in Chapter 7 Season 1:
Fortnite skins are usually only available for a limited time, whether it’s for a scant few days or a given month. And once these in-game goodies are gone from the shop, there’s no telling if or when they may return. Players should make sure to save up their V-Bucks – or some real-world cash – for their desired skins so they can grab them up before they disappear from the shop.
New Fortnite skins typically range in cost between 800 and 2,000 V-Bucks based on their rarity and their method of attainment.
The rarer a skin is in Fortnite, the less likely it will appear in the shop and the more expensive it will be. While this number does usually sit somewhere between 800 and 2,000 V-Bucks, it can vary based on other items included with it and any bundle deals that may be available.
For skins, the tiers of rarity consist of:
Packs, by comparison, cost real dollars to purchase but often come with extra items or multiple skins to sweeten the deal. Players can expect to spend anywhere from just a few bucks to $30 or more for these packs, depending on their contents.
Other new skins in the season can be found through the Fortnite Battle Pass, which costs 1,000 V-Bucks. This amounts to $8.99 for anyone looking to purchase the in-game currency. While not directly unlocking skins, the battle pass opens opportunities to earn skins and other rewards over the course of a new season.
Finally, players who want exclusive new skins in every season can invest in Fortnite Crew. For $11.99 per month, those who purchase Fortnite Crew can get access to a unique skin and a backlog of Crew skins. Theming wise, Fortnite Crew skins are often tied to the season of their release, though this isn’t always the case.
Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 1 will have new skins coming all the way until the season ends. Players who want to collect all of the seasonal skins should get them now, or add the ones already in the archive to their wishlist.
