By Rishabh Sabarwal Published December 17, 2024

Fortnite cosmetics are always a hot sell in the gaming community due to their rarity, value in V-Bucks, and unique designs. Among those, skins are the most popular cosmetic item in the game, and some players even spend a fortune purchasing almost every Item Shop outfit.

However, some players who like the free-to-play aspect of the game rely on free rewards in the Battle Pass or through quests and events that Epic releases from time to time. But it’s quite rare that Fortnite gives out a free skin to its player base, let alone multiple outfits in a single go, but that is exactly what is available for players right now.

Fortnite is giving free skins to players as of December 2024 in the game, but there are certain criteria you must meet to claim them. Here’s how to get all the free skins in the game.

As of December 16, 2024, there are four free Fortnite skins available for players to claim. They are Chord Kahele, Trailblazer Tai, Mr. Dappermint, and Explorer Emilie.

Here’s how you can get all these skins in the game:

Apart from free skins, you can also get two free items: the Sir Beurre Back Bling and the Yeetus Hammer pickaxe. Here’s how to get them both.

If you are a frequent Fortnite Crew subscriber, you’ll also be rewarded a free skin, on top of the 1,000 V-Bucks, access to Battle Pass, OG Pass, Music Pass, and the LEGO Pass, where you can progress along all of them simultaneously by earning XP in any Fortnite experience.
