How to unlock Battle Pass skins in Fortnite Override
All eight Battle Pass skins (Sonic, Tetris, and the six originals) can be unlocked by progressing through the Battle Pass tiers. All you need to do is:
- Purchase the Battle Pass (available from Aug. 20, 2026)
- Earn XP through matches by completing daily and weekly challenges
- Level up tiers (each skin is tied to specific tier milestones)
The Item Shop skins will rotate in and out throughout the season, so you’ll need to keep an eye on the shop and have V-Bucks ready when your favorite skins drop. If you’re planning to unlock everything, budget your V-Bucks carefully and keep an eye on the shop rotation because some of these collabs might not stick around for long.
