Customization in games has quickly become a necessity across all platforms.
Players want the ability to mix things up and personalize their avatars, especially
when it comes to playing online.
Fortnite is a prime example of that – the skins available to gamers not only encapsulate
the game’s charm, but allow for a large array of compelling choices.
So today, we’re counting down our list of the top 10 Fortnite Skins.
But I won’t be counting down this list alone today!
I’m joined by MAKE SOME STUFF UP HERE
10 Love Ranger A Valentine’s Day skin that really stuck
with some players, Love Ranger is essentially a living Cupid statue in pink cargo pants
with one hell of an epic love themed cross bow.
Perfect for those who really want chiseled marble abs.
Aside from that, it’s got a cool aesthetic that really pops colour wise, and that crossbow,
outfitted with a scope, is incredibly fun to use.
Because of its popularity, it actually made a comeback into the store, so it’s likely
we haven’t seen the last of Love Ranger. 9 Dark Voyager
Who doesn’t love them a little space?
If you’re one of those people obsessed with the universe and all its mysteries, the Dark
Voyager may be the perfect skin for you.
Donning a black space suit, the Dark Voyager has some serious Tron vibes, and has quickly
become one of the most popular season 3 skins.
It’s also been considered to be a hint that the game may expand its maps to one that includes
an outer space terrain, or one on a different planet.
But I wouldn’t get your hopes up just yet.
8 Merry Marauder While some are more into the female version
of this gingerbread skin – the Ginger Gunner – the Merry Marauder wins points for its
sour disposition and adorable bow tie.
So essentially, this skin is a fitted ginger bread costume with icing and candy cane inspired
details.
There’s also something incredibly satisfying about playing as a grumpy ginger bread man,
shooting a bunch of other players in the game.
7 Rex If dinosaurs are more of your thing, fear
not friends!
Fortnite has got you covered, too.
The Rex skin is a bit of a makeshift dinosaur costume.
Going for more of a humorous look over prehistoric realism, the Rex skin gives you a scaly dinosaur
outfit topped with a dinosaur hat that’s connected to a small lizard’s body that
hangs down your back.
Even though it may be more on the juvenile side, it’s still a hoot to play in, and
always makes way for some silly role playing, if that’s your thing.
6 Skull & Ghoul Troops Bit of a double whammy at this number, the
ghoul and skull troopers were skins available from this past Halloween event.
And, as their names suggest, one is a zombie, and the other, a skeleton outfit, and both
edging on the side of simplistic, which was refreshing.
Unless you got your hands on these 5 Wukong
To some, this skin may seem like a bad ass Chinese mythological inspired avatar.
To others, they might pick up that it’s Epic Games’ version of Sun Wukong, the monkey
king, who appeared in a ton of Chinese legends, including the 16th century novel Journey to
the West.
He is said to possess immense strength and speed, and can transform into 72 different
forms.
While the Fortnite version may not have all of those abilities, he’s still pretty darn
awesome, and has been praised for being one of the most detailed skins available in the
game.
4 Battle Hound The Battle Hound is one of the fiercest skins
out there.
For starters, it’s got an awesome gold head with glowing green eyes that’s sure to strike
fear into your opponents’ hearts.
It’s got some serious roman/nordic vibes, with some slick looking gold and brown armour,
fur boots and even some arm tats that add a nice touch to the already intimidating figure.
Plus Battle Hound also comes with its own customized intricate canine inspired axe that’s
sure to have all of your friends super jealous.
3 The Reaper Love Keanu Reeves?
Or how about John Wick?
Well, one of the perks of having a Battle Pass and a reasonable amount of skill in Fortnite
was this hilarious skin.
While this skin goes by the name of the Reaper – likely for legal reasons – the resemblance
is uncanny to Reeves’ kick ass character from the John Wick films.
Similar suit, similar hair style, and even matching surname – Epic calls this dude
Jason Wick – the Reaper was the final reward for those with the Season 3 battle pass, which
makes this skin fairly rare.
Unless you were one of those lucky individuals who managed to score it for free.
2 Cuddle Team Leader There is no shortage of silly humour in Fortnite
– it’s perhaps one of the game’s most endearing qualities that keeps players coming
back for more.
So it makes perfect sense that one of the most popular skins is the Cuddle Team Leader
– a slightly deranged pink bear skin that’s got a scar running across it’s oversized
mildly disturbing face.
Which is HILARIOUS.
Fortnite has a thing for teddy bears – something you can definitely glean from its curious
and silly Teddy Bear Easter eggs hidden throughout the map – and this Valentine’s Day skin
really crawled its way into a lot of player’s hearts.
1 Raven One of the most highly anticipated skins in
Fortnite was the Raven skin.
The most recently dropped one as of this recording, along with the feather flyer glider and Iron
Cage, it’s a legendary skin, costing a sweet 2000 V bucks.
With its glowing purple eyes, its nefarious aesthetic and creepy allure, it’s the kind
of skin that will definitely freak your opponents out.
Fear can be an advantage, can’t it?
Regardless, it’s super cool, and won’t disappoint.
There we
have it friends!
