Epic Games has released several Fortnite skins for free in this way, from Chrome Punk to Felina. If you played in late 2024, you probably unlocked Felina and are already familiar with the process.

Updated on May 13, 2025, by Ashely Claudino: Elite Zadie is once again obtainable through a limited-time tournament, so gamers have an additional chance to get this skin free of charge before it ...

Elite Zadie is one of the most anticipated Fortnite skins. It was added with the v34.30 update, and ever since then, players have been eagerly waiting for it. Fortunately, the wait will end soon.

Remember, to access the Vanguard Zadie quests, you must log into Fortnite before May 6 at 9 AM ET. You will have until June 7 at 9 AM ET to complete all quests and claim the skin and other rewards.

Account levels earned prior to the launch of this quest do not count toward unlocking the Vanguard Zadie skin. The Vanguard Zadie quest also rewards players with a new pickaxe and back bling.

The Zadie and Metal Mouth skins were added to Fortnite in Chapter 2 Season 1. Their designs are inspired by cyborgs, and they appear augmented in nature. However, they are actually humans.

To begin earning the skin, you must log into Fortnite anytime between April 15 at 9am ET until May 6, 2025 at 9am ET to get access to the Vanguard Zadie Quests.

If you love freebies, here's your chance to get the Elite Zadie skin in Fortnite for free. The character is a variant of Zadie, who was first released in Chapter 2.
