In Fortnite, skins are the ultimate status symbol. However, some outfits are rarer than others. You only discover these ten rarest skins with a lot of luck.

Cary, North Carolina – It would hardly be an exaggeration to say that skins and outfits are one of Fortnite’s biggest success factors. There are always new characters to earn and buy, and with every collaboration, fans are flocking to the new limited edition skins. But which of these are the rarest? We’ve collected the greatest rarities among Fortnite skins so you can see if you have some real treasures on your accounts.

Fortnite: Top 10 Rarest Skins – The Reaper

Here’s why The Reaper is so rare: This fierce gent in a black suit made his appearance early in Fortnite’s history. The Reaper first appeared in Season 3 of the game in 2018, when he was only available at level 100 in the Battle Pass. Since the end of Season 3, however, the skin has not appeared a second time in Fortnite, even though a very similar outfit came into play in 2019 with the original John Wick.

  • Skin: The Reaper
  • In-Game Rarity: Legendary
  • Price: 950 V Bucks (Season 3 Battle Pass)
  • Last availability: April 30, 2018 (Season 3 end)

Fortnite: Top 10 Rarest Skins – Galaxy

Here’s why Galaxy is so rare: The rarity of this galactic skin is mainly due to the circumstances through which you get it. The name Galaxy is no coincidence, because from 2019 the skin could only be obtained by buying a Samsung Galaxy Note 9 or a Galaxy Tab 4 and logging into Fortnite via the device. The outfit never appeared in the item shop, so it had a real-money price of 999 euros, the same as the smartphone cost at release. Also, the Galaxy campaign ended on July 1st, 2020, making it one of the most expensive and rarest skins in Fortnite.

  • Skin: Galaxy
  • In-Game Rarity: Epic
  • Price: Free, only with the purchase of a Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (999 euros upon release)
  • Last availability: July 01, 2020

Fortnite: Top 10 Rarest Skins – Honor Guard

Here’s why Honor Guard is so rare: The Honor Guard is very similar to Galaxy, fans can only get this skin when buying a smartphone. The Honor Guard only becomes available if you buy an Honor View 20 and use it to log into Fortnite. This is still possible today, but since Honor is a rather uncommon mobile phone brand, only very few should have secured this skin. After all, the Honor Guard, or the required smartphone, cost “only” 570 euros when it was released, almost half what you would have to pay for the Galaxy.

  • Skin: Honor Guard
  • In-Game Rarity: Epic
  • Price: Free, only with the purchase of an Honor View 20 (570 euros upon release)
  • Last availability: Currently

Fortnite: Top 10 Rarest Skins – Black Widow

Here’s why Black Widow is so rare: Black Widow came into play in 2019 as part of the major Marvel events in Fortnite. At that time, Avengers: Endgame was freshly released and there was a large-scale crossover in the Battle Royale to match the film. Although you could buy Black Widow as normal in the item shop for 1,500 V-Bucks, its availability was strictly limited. It was only available for just under two weeks, and since then the skin has never appeared in the shop in this form again.

  • Skin: Black Widow
  • In-Game Rarity: Special (Marvel Series)
  • Price: 1,500 V Bucks
  • Last availability: May 06, 2019

Fortnite: Top 10 Rarest Skins – Special Forces

Here’s why Special Forces is so rare: While the Special Forces Skin doesn’t look spectacular, the odds of seeing it in a match are still pretty low. Special Forces was first available in Season 1 of Fortnite, but only appeared a few times in the Item Shop after Season 1 ended. And since 2019 the skin hasn’t been in the shop at all. It should only be found on the accounts of experienced and long-standing players.

  • Skin: Special Forces
  • In-Game Rarity: Rarely
  • Price: 1,200 V Bucks
  • Last availability: January 24, 2019

Fortnite: Top 10 Rarest Skins – Black Knight

Here’s why Black Knight is so rare: Not only is Black Knight one of the cooler looking skins on this list, it also marks an important milestone in Fortnite history. Introduced in 2017, the Black Knight was the final reward of the very first Battle Pass coming to Fortnite with Season 2. So if you have this outfit in your locker, you can almost call yourself a Fortnite veteran. Adding to its rarity, the Black Knight was never available in-game again after appearing in the Battle Pass.

  • Skin: BlackKnight
  • In-Game Rarity: Legendary
  • Price: 950 V Bucks (Season 2 Battle Pass)
  • Last availability: February 21, 2018

Fortnite: Top 10 Rarest Skins – Royale Bomber

Here’s why Royale Bomber is so rare: Another Fortnite skin that was only available by purchasing hardware. In 2018, Sony released a PlayStation 4 bundle that included Fortnite, the Royale Bomber, and 500 V-Bucks. The skin was later bundled with the DualShock 4 controller, but there was no other way to get this skin. On top of that, the bundles that are still for sale today have gone up in price tremendously and the code for the skin is only redeemable once.

  • Skin: Royal Bombers
  • In-Game Rarity: Epic
  • Price: Free, only with the purchase of a PlayStation 4 x Fortnite bundle (299 euros at release) or DualShock 4 bundles (60 euros at release)
  • Last availability: Current but hard to find

Fortnite: Top 10 Rarest Skins – Blue Team Leader

Here’s why Blue Team Leader is so rare: Sony has often had its fingers in Fortnite with PlayStation Plus. At relatively regular intervals there are free bundles with skins for fans who play Fortnite on the console in the online service. The first bundle came with the Blue Team Leader and was released back in 2018. However, the PlayStation Plus Celebration Pack 1 was only available for a short time and thanks to this brief appearance, Blue Team Leader has become one of the rarest skins in Fortnite.

  • Skin: Blue Team Leader
  • In-Game Rarity: Rarely
  • Price: Free (PlayStation Plus Celebration Pack)
  • Last availability: May 2018

Fortnite: Top 10 Rarest Skins – Renegade Raider

Here’s why Renegade Raider is so rare: Some skins are only seen on Fortnite veterans, the Renegade Raider is one of them. This outfit was only available in the item shop in Season 1, when players had to be at least level 20 to unlock it. After that, Renegade Raider still cost 1,200 V-Bucks, which is actually a completely normal sum even nowadays. After Season 1, however, Epic Games kept this skin under wraps, so today this skin is only available to long-established Fortnite fans.

  • Skin: Renegade Raiders
  • In-Game Rarity: Rarely
  • Price: 1,200 V Bucks
  • Last availability: December 13, 2017

Fortnite: Top 10 Rarest Skins – Aerial Assault Trooper

Here’s why Aerial Assault Trooper is so rare: The fact that the Renegade Raider was a very popular skin in Season 1 only made another skin all the more rare today. The Aerial Assault Raider was also only available in Season 1, cost 1,200 V-Bucks, and only required level 15 to unlock. But because the other skin was so much more popular, far fewer people bought this outfit, making the Aerial Assault Raider arguably the greatest rarity in Fortnite today.

  • Skin: Aerial Assault Troopers
  • In-Game Rarity: Rarely
  • Price: 1,200 V Bucks
  • Last availability: December 13, 2017
