Fortnite: How To Get Eminem Skin

Slim Shady himself, Eminem, is set to arrive on the Fortnite island to cap off Fortnite’s OG season and bring forth Chapter 5. Fortnite has always brought forth some incredible collabs for fictional franchises and talented celebrities, and it seems that Eminem is the latest, and the most surprising. Players won’t just witness Eminem in the Big Bang Fortnite OG Event, but they will also be able to purchase the music iconic to add to their ever-growing library of Fortnite cosmetics.

Eminem will come in three distinct outfits that celebrate the music artist’s decades of talent and global success. Whether it’s a humble rap outfit, a superhero costume, or a more dapper suit, players can pick up Eminem cosmetics in Fortnite to keep, as well as have a limited time to claim a special Edit Style for one of his outfits if they participate in the Big Bang Event.

Eminen Skin Release Date

Players can expect to purchase Eminem from the Fortnite Item Shop starting Wednesday, November 29, at 7 PM ET. There are three new looks from the Icon Series featuring Eminem and some distinct styles, although it’s likely that these styles will be separate outfits that players will have to purchase with their V-Bucks.

Rap Boy Eminem

V-Buck Price: TBC

One of the three Eminem skins in Fortnite, players can get their hands on Rap Boy, which is a hilarious throwback to Eminem’s early song, Without Me, which features the music artist as his version of Batman’s sidekick, Robin. Fortnite was not allowed to use an actual Robin costume, but they have found a creative way to pay homage to this outfit with the Rap Boy costume, which features Eminem in a more mature superhero costume with his distinct flair attached.

Slim Shady Eminem

V-Buck Price: TBC

One of the Eminem skins in Fortnite features the artist’s time as Slim Shad as seen both early in his career and in the music video The Real Slim Shady, with bleached blonde hair and a t-shirt and jacket. Players can expect to purchase this skin in the Fortnite shop fairly soon, where they will also be given a unique style to add to their collection.

The second style that the Slim Shady skin comes with features Eminem wearing headphones of a classic design.

The third style comes from the Mask Up Built-In Emote, allowing Slim Shady to put up his hoodie and wear what seems to be a diamond-encrusted mask with glowing orange eyes. This Mask Up Emote will be exclusive to the Slim Shady outfit, and players will only be able to use it with this skin.

Marshall Never More Eminem

V-Buck Price: TBC

Eminem’s other outfit for the Fortnite Item Shop is the Marshall Never More skin, which features the rapper looking rather dapper thanks to a clean black suit and a fedora. This skin only comes with one style if players purchase it from the Item Shop, but they can get their hands on an exclusive extra style option, but only for one time, as this is a timed item.

The outfit itself seems to come from a more recent Eminem album cover, Music to Be Murdered By, where Eminem stands on the cover with a rusty shovel in a suit and hat, inspired by none other than Alfred Hitchcock. It’s great to see an iconic Eminem look thrown into the Fortnite x Eminem collab.

How To Get Marshall Magma Edit Style

Players will need to attend The Big Bang, which is the final event for Fortnite’s OG Season. This live event begins on December 2, 2 PM ET. Players will receive the Marshall Magma edit style, as well as The Big Bang Loading Screen, featuring Eminem in Fortnite. The variant itself isn’t too distinct, but it does come with cracked skin, featuring what seems to be lava ready to pour from Eminem’s face, as well as glowing and sinister yellow eyes.

Whether players have purchased the Marshall Never More outfit before or after the event does not matter, as all that matters is that they attend the event. Upon completing the event, and the Fortnite servers coming back online for Chapter 5, those who watched the event live on their account will receive this style once they purchase the Marshall Never More outfit.

When Will Eminem Leave The Item Shop?

Whilst players can expect Eminem to drop into the Fortnite Item Shop on November 29, they might be wondering how long they have to purchase Eminem and his outfits before he disappears from the shop. It’s more than likely that Eminem will stick around in the item shop after the end of Fortnite’s OG Season, and hopefully for a few days into Fortnite Chapter 5, as players that attend the live event to say goodbye to Fortnite OG will be able to unlock the Marshall Magma edit style for the Marshall Never More skin for no additional charge, but they will still need to purchase the Marshall Never More skin to use the style.

For many collabs, it’s unpredictable when skin will leave the shop, as Lewis Hamilton was only around for 48 hours, Stranger Things returned for 24 hours, and other skins like the Marvel cosmetics have returned almost monthly, whereas skins like Travis Scott and God of War’s Kratos have been missing for years, so it’s always best to get collab skins quickly in case they never appear again.
