Fortnite skins, filed by tier and season

Fortnite skins are officially called outfits, and the catalog above lists every unique one in the community cosmetics API, de-duplicated by name and rebuilt from the API whenever the site updates. The total grows most weeks; what stays put is the structure: the five legacy rarity tiers, the eleven licensed and recolour series, and the seven chapters that introduced them. This is the binder every other page on OutfitAtlas files into.

How many Fortnite skins are there?

Thousands, and the answer depends on what you count: unique outfit names, outfit entries once obvious duplicates are removed, or the raw entries in the API dump we read on 9 September 2026. Sites that quote the biggest totals are counting the raw entries, which include mannequins, non-player characters and the same outfit filed twice under different level-of-detail ids. All three are honest; they just measure different things, and a catalog should say which one it means.

The catalog grows faster than most people assume. New outfits arrive most weeks, and the catalog above opens on the newest of them; on 7 September 2026 it was Mega Man, Mega Man X and Zero, all for Chapter 7 Season 4 "Override".

Two chapters dominate. Chapter 2 introduced 724 outfits across its eight seasons and a Remix season, and Chapter 1 introduced 533. Chapter 6, which ran from December 2024 to November 2025, is the busiest modern chapter at 485. Chapter 7 is still running. If you want the landmark outfits of each era rather than the counts, the chapter-by-chapter guide walks through all seven.

How this catalog is filed

Every outfit is filed three ways: by legacy rarity tier, by licensed series, and by the chapter and season it was introduced. The rarity tier is the one that needs explaining, because Epic stopped showing it. In update v29.20, in April 2024 during Chapter 5 Season 2, Epic removed the coloured rarity tags from cosmetics in the Locker and the Item Shop, keeping only the series labels such as Icon Series and Gaming Legends. The community API still exposes the old field on every outfit, and because the tier tracked the price an outfit launched at, it remains the fastest way to understand what you are looking at. Our rarity tiers explained guide covers the history; the short version is below.

• Common — the default "Recruit" models you spawn with. Never sold.
• Uncommon — historically 800 V-Bucks. Simple, single-colour designs, and the tier the sweatiest players quietly prefer.
• Rare — historically 1,200 V-Bucks. Themed outfits with one strong idea.
• Epic — historically 1,500 V-Bucks. Nearly half the catalog lives here, including most Battle Pass outfits and most non-series collaborations such as the anime skins.
• Legendary — historically 2,000 V-Bucks. Reactive materials, built-in emotes and the pass tier-100 rewards.
• Series (eleven labels) — Icon, Marvel, Gaming Legends, Crew, Star Wars, DC and five recolour series: Frozen, Lava, Dark, Slurp and Shadow.

The historic prices above are the observed norm from 2018 to April 2024, not a published Epic rule, and they no longer bind the shop. What they still do is tell you which shelf an outfit came from: pick a tier in the catalog's Rarity / series filter to see that whole shelf.

Common and Uncommon: the defaults and the 800-V-Bucks shelf

Common is the smallest tier you can actually wear, because it contains only the default outfits. The API holds 26 "Recruit" entries once duplicates are stripped: eight Chapter 1 originals, eight Chapter 2 "Rebirth" defaults and ten more added in Chapter 2 Season 4, every one described as a "standard issue combatant outfit". Since Chapter 5 you can pick which default you spawn as from a list of fourteen named models — the default skins guide lists them.

Uncommon is where the catalog's most-used outfits hide. Aura and Crystal, both 800-V-Bucks outfits from late Chapter 1, are worn by more competitive players than any Legendary, precisely because they are small, plain and hard to spot. The tier also holds the Chapter 2 Season 4 re-creations of the original defaults — Jonesy The First, Vintage Ramirez and Headhunter Prime — which are the only way to wear a Chapter 1 default with a name attached.

Rare: the 1,200-V-Bucks shelf

Rare is the tier of one good idea per outfit. Brite Bomber from Season 1 is the template — a single colour story and a silhouette you can read across a field. Renegade Raider and Aerial Assault Trooper sat on the same shelf in Season 1's season shop, unlocked by player level rather than sold outright, which is why they are so seldom seen; this catalog files them by tier and leaves the rarity-ranking to other sites.

The tier's modern life is collaborations that do not carry a series label. Bulma from the 2022 Dragon Ball drop is Rare, as are Fishstick, the Season 7 fish who became a mascot, and the Chapter 2 Season 1 cowgirl Rustler. Soccer-style outfits such as Poised Playmaker and Clinical Crosser, all 1,200 V-Bucks in Season 4 of Chapter 1, live here too and turn up constantly in the sweaty skins guide.

Epic: the biggest shelf in the binder

Epic is the largest tier, close to half of the de-duplicated catalog, and it is where the shop actually lives. At the historic 1,500 V-Bucks it was the price of a serious outfit without reactive gimmicks, and it is the tier Epic gives to most Battle Pass outfits below the final page and to most collaborations that do not get a series badge: Naruto Uzumaki, Sasuke and Kakashi arrived as Epic-tier outfits in November 2021, and the 2025 Simpsons and Bleach outfits did the same.

Because it is so large, Epic is also where the catalog's character lives — Ghoul Trooper from Season 1, Peely the banana from Season 8, Meowscles the cat from Chapter 2 Season 2, Elite Agent the tactical pass reward from Season 3, and the promotional Galaxy outfit that shipped with a 2018 Samsung phone. If you are browsing for looks rather than tiers, the best Fortnite skins page ranks the standouts and the cool skins gallery goes deeper on design.

Legendary: the 2,000-V-Bucks shelf

Legendary is one of the smallest tiers because it was reserved for outfits with something extra: reactive materials, built-in emotes, progressive unlock styles or the tier-100 slot of a Battle Pass. Drift from Season 5 and Midas from Chapter 2 Season 2 are the two the community still names first, and both were pass rewards rather than shop items, which is the other thing Legendary tends to mean — you earned it in a season and cannot buy it now.

Shop Legendaries at 2,000 V-Bucks were rarer, and they were the outfits with the most work in them: Raven with its animated eyes, The Reaper's tier-100 assassin, Calamity's progressive styles. The recolour series that follow below started as Legendary outfits re-issued in a themed material, which is why Frozen Raven and Fallen Love Ranger look like Legendaries in a different coat.

Licensed series: Icon, Marvel, DC, Gaming Legends, Star Wars

Series labels are the one part of the old system Epic kept, and they mark outfits made under licence or with a real person. There are five licensed series. Icon Series is the largest — streamers, musicians and athletes, beginning with Ninja in January 2020. Marvel Series comes next, then Gaming Legends (Kratos and Master Chief opened it in December 2020), Star Wars (Rey and Kylo Ren opened it in December 2019) and DC (Harley Quinn, February 2020).

Series outfits never sat on the standard price ladder. Most launched at 1,500 to 2,000 V-Bucks, a few above it, and the licence, not the tier, set the number. The collab series guide covers each licence and lists the outfits that defined it; the Rarity / series filter above shows every outfit in each series.

Crew and the recolour series

Crew Series is the subscription shelf: one outfit per month since Galaxia in December 2020, each available only to Fortnite Crew subscribers during its month. The current one is Prisma, the September 2026 pack. Because they cannot be bought later, Crew outfits are the most consistently unavailable shelf in the catalog, and the Crew skins guide lists every one with its month.

The five recolour series are small and old. Frozen, Lava, Dark, Slurp and Shadow are re-issues of existing outfits in a themed material, mostly from Chapter 1 Season 7 through Chapter 2 Season 2 — Frozen Raven, Fallen Love Ranger and Slurp Jonesy are the ones people remember. They have not grown since 2021.

By chapter: where every outfit arrived

Chapter 2 introduced the most outfits (724) and Chapter 4 the fewest (229). The table lists every tier and series, largest shelf first as read on 9 September 2026, with the price each historically launched at and how you get one today; the chapter counts sit underneath it.

Chapter counts, same read: Chapter 1 (2017–2019) 533 · Chapter 2 (2019–2021) 724 · Chapter 3 (2021–2022) 260 · Chapter 4 (2022–2023) 229 · Chapter 5 (2023–2024) 261 · Chapter 6 (2024–2025) 485 · Chapter 7 (2025–) still in progress. A small group of entries carries no chapter in the API, mostly promotional and event outfits.

Girl skins, black skins and the other ways people search

Most searches for Fortnite skins are not for a tier; they are for a look, and the catalog answers them by filing, not by guessing. "Fortnite girl skins" is the biggest of these — roughly half the catalog uses a female body type, and the API records it in the id string (an "F" in the old CID naming) rather than as a label, so the hot skins gallery and the cool skins gallery simply show the outfits by name.

"Black Fortnite skins" means two things: outfits with a dark or black colourway, which is a style search, and outfits with Black characters, which is a representation search. Both are answered by names rather than tiers — Dark Voyager, Omega and the Shadow Series for the former; Bushranger's teammate Guff, Kwame from the Chapter 6 Crew line and the many named defaults for the latter. Where a search is really about a licence — superhero skins, anime skins, Star Wars skins — the collab guide covers each licence.

Where Fortnite skins actually come from

Outfits reach your locker in exactly four ways: the Item Shop, a pass, Fortnite Crew, or a promotion. Nothing is tradeable and nothing can be sold, so any site offering to sell you a specific outfit is selling an account, which breaches Epic's terms. We never link those.

The Item Shop is the main route and it runs on V-Bucks, which changed on 18 March 2026: the dollar prices stayed the same but the packs shrank, so $8.99 now buys 800 V-Bucks (was 1,000), $22.99 buys 2,400, $36.99 buys 4,500 and $89.99 buys 12,500. The Battle Pass costs 800 V-Bucks and returns 800 if you finish it; Fortnite Crew is $11.99 a month and includes 800 V-Bucks plus that month's Crew outfit. The V-Bucks pricing guide works the maths per outfit, and the Battle Pass guide covers what the passes contain.

V-Bucks cards from Eneba, CDKeys and Kinguin

V-Bucks gift cards from resellers are the one place a catalog reader can save real money, because card prices float below Epic's list price on most days. We link resellers whose programs we have checked — Eneba, CDKeys and Kinguin — and those are affiliate links: we may earn a small commission on a card, and it never changes what gets filed here. Match the card's region and platform to your account before buying, and treat any price you see as today's, not ours; we do not print reseller prices because they move daily.
