How to get Armadillo skin in Fortnite
The Armadillo skin in Fortnite was first introduced in Chapter 1 Season 5 on August 28, 2018. Armadillo, while not having much lore attached to him, is one of the game's many military-based skins and boasts a simple yet sleek design that mixes military aesthetics and Fortnite's classic design schemes. The skin has become one of the more beloved cosmetics in the game due to its OG nature.
Armadillo's looks are themed around that of a special ops soldier, with his clothes being primarily a shade of military green with accessories like glasses and a scarf to go along with it. All of this is accompanied by a mohawk haircut, tying the spec-ops look of the character together.
Here's how you can get your hands on the Armadillo skin in Fortnite.
How to get the Armadillo skin in Fortnite Item Shop: Price, availability, and other details
As of today (August 5, 2024), the Armadillo skin is listed for purchase in the Fortnite Item Shop. Since it is an Uncommon cosmetic, it does not have any other items accompanying it. Purchasing Armadillo in the Item Shop grants you these cosmetics:
- Armadillo (Outfit)
- Armadillo (LEGO Outfit + Selectable Style)
If you wish to acquire the Armadillo skin, you can purchase it at the cheap price of 800 V-Bucks. However, it is important to note that there are no bundles featuring Armadillo and any cosmetics themed around him.
The Armadillo skin in Fortnite comes packaged with the LEGO minifigure variation as well, which in itself has two styles that players can choose from. While the Base LEGO style features an unmasked version of Armadillo, the Signature style involves a lot more detail and provides a much more accurate translation of Armadillo's Battle Royale looks in LEGO Fortnite.
How long will the Armadillo skin stay in the Fortnite Item Shop?
The Armadillo skin in Fortnite will stay in the Item Shop until August 8, 2024, at 8 PM ET. While the cosmetic did not return to the Item Shop for over 500 days before its current listing, Armadillo is not an exclusive skin and will be listed in the Item Shop again.
You can check out the Fortnite Item Shop tomorrow to see what Epic Games add next.
