The Mandalorian Warrior skin is fully customizable and will take the Fortnite scene by storm in just a few days. Here’s what you should know!
Despite the Fortnite: Galactic Battle season featuring iconic characters such as Emperor Palpatine and General Grievous, the attention has shifted to a Mandalorian skin. This Outfit is fully customizable, allowing players to build their own Boba Fett, Jango Fett, or other Mandalorian to their liking.
This article outlines when we expect this skin to launch in Fortnite, highlights its customizable aspects, and discusses how players have reacted.
When can I build my own Mandalorian?
Many sources have reported that the Mandalorian Warrior skin will arrive in the Fortnite Item Shop on Thursday, May 22. This release date coincides with the next Star Wars season update, which conveniently revolves around the Mandalorian.
The skin will be available in the Item Shop when it updates at 7 p.m. ET. Unfortunately, leakers have yet to reveal the cost, so we must wait and see what price Epic assigns to this skin. Regardless, customization will draw thousands of players in to spend their V-Bucks.
How customizable is this skin?
As outlined in a post by HYPEX, there are infinite possibilities when crafting your personal Mandalorian. From colors to patterns to specific types of armor, this is the Star Wars version of Fortnite's Boundless superhero skin.
The mileage possibilities from the customization alone make the Mandalorian Warrior an attractive option for players. As a result, it's fair to expect Epic Games to charge upwards of 2,000 V-Bucks. We expect players to flock to this skin regardless of price, given the level of detail.
The pricing of the Mandalorian Warrior Bundle recently leaked, which we have outlined below:
- Mandalorian Warriro Bundle - 2,500 V-Bucks
- Mandalorian Warrior Outfit - 1,800 V-Bucks
- Pickaxe - 800 V-Bucks
- Cape Back Bling - 400 V-Bucks
- Two Emotes - 300 V-Bucks each

Players react to Fortnite's Mandalorian Warrior skin - "Customization is key"
This skin's customization aspect drives it, and players have reacted overwhelmingly positively to it. Having so many options makes it a must-buy for many. Some players, such as No_Blackberry__ on Reddit, wish Epic Games included a female body type.
Others have stated their desire for a jetpack Back Bling, which would complete the Mandalorian aesthetic. However, since the Mandalorian's Jetpack is an in-game item, this idea could suffer a similar fate to the highly requested Lightsaber Pickaxe.
It's worth noting that the other items included in this set are currently unknown, which means a jetpack is possible. We should know more as the week progresses, leading to the expected May 22 release date.
