With so many popular franchises taking over pop culture, you would think that Fortnite would not be able to keep up with every big movie or TV show.

The movies and TV shows listed above are not even close to the extent of collaborations that Fortnite has given us. The game has teamed up with celebrities, musicians, gamers and more, giving fans some of the most realistic cosmetics to drop off the Battle Bus with.

Fortnite's mass of outfits have created quite a wide range of variety. Not only does the game partner with various franchises, but they also create some of their very own skins. Sometimes, these skins can even have an impact on your actual game.

With a talented creative team at their side, the Battle Royale's list of original skins spans longer than we can write, but there are a few playable characters that should be noted.

Popular Fortnite ORIGINAL skins:

  • Renegade Raider
  • Black Knight
  • The Reaper
  • Dark Voyager
  • Bright Bomber
  • Midas
  • Jonesy

This list is only a small fraction of the unique skins Fortnite has created, and there is still room for so many more in the future.

The rarity of these original skins also play a major part in Fortnite's release of them. Skins like the "Renegade Raider" have not returned to the Item Shop since Chapter 1, Season 1, making it extremely rare.

How much do Fortnite skins usually cost?

This answer to how much Fortnite skins usually cost varies from character to character. With their collaborations, a lot of times a skin will cost 1,500 Vbucks to 2,000 Vbucks. Then, on the other hand, Fortnite has some original skins that cost only 800 Vbucks.

To put it into a better perspective, 1,000 V-Bucks currently costs $7.99 USD. This means one of their higher-end skins tends to be between $12 and $16. How to get Fortnite Vbucks for free?

Fortnite, a free-to-play game, does not require its players to purchase any of these skins. That said, the temptation is high once you see some of the game's top skins in the Item Shop.

So the question is... how many Fortnite skins do YOU own?
