Katalina skin in Fortnite

The long-awaited Katalina skin can now be obtained for free in Fortnite. This is how to get your hands on the brand-new Outfit during Chapter 6 Season 1.

Apart from the Battle Royale aspect, collecting skins and cosmetics has always been a huge part of Fortnite. While many need to be purchased from the Item Shop or unlocked from Battle Pass, the devs occasionally release free skins.

One of which is the Katalina Outfit. Epic has released the free skin to celebrate the fact that the Battle Royale has finally returned to iOS devices in the European Union.

How to get free Katalina skin

You can get the Katalina skin for free by completing quests with the Fortnite mobile app from August 16, 2024, until December 12 at 1 AM PT / 4 AM ET / 9 AM GMT.

You’ll need to gain 100,000 XP to unlock the Katalina Outfit via quests. These can be completed by playing on the Fortnite mobile app on Android or — in the European Union — Android or iPhone.

All Fortnite mobile quests & rewards

As well as Katalina’s outfit, you can earn other parts of her set by completing quests, these include:

  • 25,000 XP to unlock the Tactical Kat Wrap.
  • 50,000 XP to unlock the Kat Claws Pickaxe.
  • 75,000 XP to unlock the Katalina’s Kit Bag Back Bling.

It’s also important to note that Quest reward items aren’t exclusive to quests and will be available to purchase in the shop for all players at a later date. So if you don’t fancy doing all the quests to get Katalina’s set, it should be available to purchase from the Item Store in the future.
