Skins in Fortnite are a major draw for many players, adding excitement to the Battle Pass and providing fresh options in the Item Shop, often boosting player engagement. With thousands of skins already available, there are even more upcoming skins planned for future updates. Thanks to leaks, surveys, and various hints from Epic Games, players have a good sense of some of the cosmetics set to arrive soon.
Several upcoming Fortnite skins have been partially revealed, with leaks and insider information giving us a sneak peek at planned collaborations. In addition to these leaks, survey skins and concept art are shown to players ahead of time, allowing the community to vote on which designs are most popular. These survey skins often find their way into the Battle Pass or the Item Shop once they’ve garnered enough interest.
Survey Skins
One of the most reliable ways Fortnite reveals new skins is through surveys. These mini tests gauge player interest in different designs, and based on the feedback, Epic decides which ones to bring into the game.
New Fortnite Collaborations
While original Fortnite skins are exciting, it’s the collaborative skins that generate the most buzz. Fortnite is known for partnering with a variety of popular franchises to create crossover skins. Some of the upcoming collaborations that are expected to make their way to Fortnite include:
- Kaiju No. 8
- Demon Slayer
- One Punch Man
- Hitman
- The Riddler
- Yakuza
- Tekken
- One Piece
These skins could appear in the Item Shop or as part of a Battle Pass, potentially included in special event releases, giving players access to a wide array of unique cosmetics.
When Are These Skins Coming?
While there are plenty of leaks and details about upcoming skins, it’s often unclear when they will actually be released. The timing for skin drops can be unpredictable, some skins are leaked months or even years ahead of their actual debut, while others appear with little notice. Typically, survey skins make their way into the game within a year, although they may undergo significant reworking before their final release.
Epic Games often works well in advance on its plans, with updates and skins ready for upcoming seasons. So players can expect to see these highly anticipated skins eventually, though patience is key.
