Fortnite's Rare "The Red Knight" Skin Is Available Again

One of Fortnite's most sought-after skins is now available again, for a limited time. The Red Knight skin is available in the Item Shop now, after a long absence since February. This version of the Red Knight appears to be missing her back bling, the Red Shield, but Epic says it's aware of the problem and will be granting it to anyone who has purchased the skin.

The Red Knight has been an enviable rarity for months. It hasn't appeared on the store since February. Some fans on Twitter have even expressed some annoyance that it's coming back at all, since seeing it had become such a rare treat. The new version of the Red Knight is available for 2,000 V-Bucks, just like the original, and has a matching Crimson Axe for 800 V-Bucks. Another new legendary skin, Criterion, is also available for 2,000 and includes the back bling Stabilizer. You can see both skins below.

Meanwhile, Fortnite Season 5 is just around the corner, and Epic is once again teasing the big world-changing event with weird happenings around the map. It already threw a curve-ball with a missile launch that cracked the sky, so where this all ends up now is anybody's guess. You can help ring in the transition to a new season by making a fan film and winning some V-Bucks in the process.
