Fortnite skins June 2021: all the skins coming to Fortnite and how to get them
If you’re an avid Fortnite player, then you probably want to know which Fortnite skins you’ll be getting your hands on in June 2021. After all, who says you can’t be deadly and fashionable? Fortunately, Epic Games is constantly adding new skins to Fortnite Battle Royale, be it a collaboration with a pop-culture brand or one of its own characters.
Fortnite Season 7 is almost here and it looks set to be quite different from what we're used to. Expect to see this page updated with Fortnite skins based on aliens and other strange creatures. We imagine that the pop culture collaborations won't stop soon either.
We’ve rounded up every Fortnite skin we expect to land in the battle royale in June 2021, including both skins confirmed by Epic Games and those which are rumored – but don’t worry, we’ve clearly signposted which are which. So, read on for all the Fortnite skins we expect in the near future.

Officially unveiled Fortnite skins
Superman - Season 7 Battle Pass
After his identity hiding glasses were teased by the official Fortnite Twitter account, Superman is confirmed to making an appearance as a Fortnite skin in Season 7. The Man of Steel is available through the Battle Pass which you can buy right now.
Though you'll have to wait a while before he can be unlocked as it looks like Superman is the Season 7 secret skin. This means you'll have to complete additional objectives to play as him.
As always you can either buy the Battle Pass on its own for 950 V-Bucks or you could get Fortnite Crew. It costs $11.99 (£9.99 / AU$15.99) but includes additional cosmetics and 1,000 V-Bucks while also giving you the Battle Pass too.
Rick - Season 7 Battle Pass
Everyone's favorite bad-mouthed scientist is headed to Fortnite. You'll be able to play as Rick (from Rick and Morty) by unlocking his Fortnite Skin from the Battle Pass in Season 7. Morty is also along for the ride as 'Hammer Morty', Rick's trusty harvesting tool.
You can either buy the Battle Pass on its own for 950 V-Bucks or you can get Fortnite Crew. Crew costs $11.99 (£9.99 / AU$15.99) but includes additional cosmetics and 1,000 V-Bucks while also giving you the Battle Pass too.
Ruby Shadows - Street Shadows pack
To celebrate the Epic Mega Sale this year, Epic Games is giving Fortnite players a free skin, pickaxe, glider, and backbling bundle. You'll have to work for them though.
Right now and until 11 AM ET (3 PM GMT) on June 17, you can unlock the free challenge pack bundle through the Item Shop on PC. Just log into Fortnite through the Epic Games Store and you should see the Street Shadows pack there waiting for you.
Once you've bought it you'll then have to complete some simple challenges - like playing games with a friend and outlasting opponents. If you don't want to waste your time completing challenges (or aren't able to play on PC) you should be able to buy the items with V-Bucks at a later date.
Catwoman Zero – Batman crossover
The long-rumored Catwoman Zero skin is finally in Fortnite. Alongside Batman Zero and Rebirth Harley Quinn, this is the third crossover skin to appear in-game to tie in with the ongoing Fortnite / Batman crossover.
Unlike the other two skins so far, there doesn't appear to be a way to get Catwoman Zero for free (read below for details). However, you can get Catwoman's new pickaxe by redeeming the code included in issue three of the series – either by purchasing the comic book physically or through DC Universe Infinite. If you do unlock the pickaxe you'll get a discount on the Catwoman bundle.
Catwoman Zero is available to buy in the Item Shop for 1,200 V-Bucks or in a bundle with her pickaxe for 1,500 V-Bucks (saving you 500 V-Bucks on the total).
Batman Zero – Batman crossover
The Fortnite / Batman crossover has officially begun with the release of the first three of six fortnightly comics. The six-issue miniseries has thrust the World's Greatest Detective onto the Fortnite Island, though he has no memories of who he is or how he got there.
Even if you aren't interested in lore there's still a good reason to pick up these comics: in-game cosmetics. The first issue included a code for the Rebirth Harley Quinn skin, with Batman's glider and Catwoman's pickaxe being available in issues two and three respectively.
If you input the code from all six comic books you'll receive an additional bonus: the Batman Zero Fortnite skin – or you can buy him now in the Item Shop for 1,500 V-Bucks if you don't want to wait.
His design appears to be based on how the character looks in issue two of the mini-series. You can buy the comics physically, or you can subscribe to DC Universe Infinite (only available in the US or by using a VPN). If you use DC Universe Infinite, after reading a comic a code should be emailed to you for each item.
Fixer - PlayStation Plus pack
PlayStation Plus members are in for a treat, with the new PlayStation Plus Celebration Pack. This free bundle includes a backbling and an all new free Fortnite skin, Fixer. It'll only be available for a limited time, so make sure to snag it while you can.
Like other console exclusive skins, we don't expect to see this one make its way to other platforms, so if you're on Xbox, PC or Switch you're out of luck.
Mecha Cuddle Master – Fortnite Crew June 2021
The Fortnite Crew pack for June 2021 has been revealed, and it includes quite a few goodies. Not only will you get the new Mecha Cuddle Master skin, but you'll also get a matching pickaxe and a Spotify Premium subscription.
Fortnite Crew costs $11.99 (£9.99 / AU$15.99) per month and will net you 1,000 V-Bucks as well as the Battle Pass if you don't currently own it (just in time for the new Season 7 that is expected in June).
Rumored Fortnite skins
Loki - God of Mischief
Here's a potential Season 7 leak for you, a Loki Fortnite skin. The image from the tweet above is for the official Mecha Cuddle Leader loading screen, and just off to the left we can see a familiar-looking silhouette.
We don't know for certain if Loki will be added to Fortnite, but Season 7 kicks off just one day before Loki is meant to start streaming on Disney Plus, so it would tie in nicely. Disney and Epic Games have collaborated extensively on Fortnite already so another partnership is definitely a possibility, we'll just have to wait and see.
Samus Aran - Nintendo's bounty hunter
@GenosPapa Dual reveal of Samus in Fortnite, and Jonesy in Smash at E3? LET'S GOOOOO! pic.twitter.com/gAxb84xFZ7May 19, 2021
In Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 5 many fans were calling for Nintendo to be represented by an in-game skin after both Xbox and PlayStation got their mascots in the Battle Royale. The obvious choice was bounty hunter Samus from the Metroid series – but she never showed up.
Leaked documents shared on Twitter from the Epic Games vs Apple court battle indicate that Samus is/was planned to appear in the game (alongside multiple other characters like Naruto and Ariana Grande). The above panel from issue three of the Batman Zero Point series adds to the speculation that the character could still be coming after fans spotted a silhouette that looks a lot like Samus.
Take this rumor with an unhealthy amount of salt, but it could mean that Samus might soon arrive as a Fortnite skin.
Leaked survey skins
Here are ALL the skins from Epic's Survey, again thanks to @LeakySussed! pic.twitter.com/H8RNZlQjOOMay 14, 2021
Here's a leak to take with an extra pinch of salt: multiple Fortnite leakers on Twitter have shared images from a recent Epic survey showing off several new skin designs. In it the company detailed potential Fortnite skins and included images of ones we might eventually see added to the game.
You can see all of the in the tweet above but some of our favorites are Cartoon Bushranger, a Vampire Drift, and Guff dressed as a Christmas tree. We have no clue if any of these skins will ever be added to the game, but be on the lookout in future seasons.
The Foundation – Leader of the Seven
The Foundation, a character that appeared in the epic Fortnite Season 5 event, is rumored to be becoming a Fortnite skin at some point in the future. It's likely we won't see him until Season 7 – as he's currently sealed within the Zero Point – but we'll have to wait and see what happens.
Leaker Hypex found files related to the skin in-game so he could be on the way sooner than that, but we'll just have to wait and see what happens.
