Fortnite and crossovers - they just go together. New partnerships are announced again and again. In our weekly series, we present you with a Fortnite skin each time. Today, it's Obi-Wan Kenobi's turn.
More and more characters from TV shows, films and other games appear as skins in Fortnite. So that you don't lose sight of the story behind the characters, we'll keep you up to date. Our weekly series returns with a really nice collaboration between Star Wars and Fortnite.
Fortnite Skin Obi-Wan Kenobi
Obi-Wan Kenobi is a fictional character from the Star Wars series. In the original trilogy, Obi-Wan is a Jedi Master in a supporting role and is portrayed by British actor Alec Guinness. In the later-released prequel trilogy, a younger version of the character serves as one of the two main characters alongside Anakin Skywalker and is portrayed by Scottish actor Ewan McGregor. He is a mentor to Luke Skywalker, introducing him to the ways of the Jedi. And after sacrificing himself in a duel against Darth Vader, Obi-Wan guides Luke through the Force in his battle against the Galactic Empire.
Also available on Disney+ is the television miniseries Obi-Wan Kenobi, which reprises the role of McGregor. In a partnership with Epic Games, this version of Obi-Wan also came to Fortnite Island and joined other Star Wars characters.
How Do You Get The Obi-Wan Kenobi Skin in Fortnite?
The Obi-Wan Kenobi skin was added as part of the "Obi-Wan Kenobi" set in Chapter 3, Season 2 with Patch 20.40 on May 20, 2022. It's available in the item store from time to time, and can only be purchased there.
How Much Does Obi-Wan Kenobi Cost?
You can purchase the Obi-Wan Kenobi skin individually from the Fortnite item shop for 1,600 V-Bucks. The skin is also available within the Obi-Wan Kenobi bundle with other cosmetics for 2,200 V-Bucks. You could also get it for free by being among the top players in your region in the Obi-Wan Kenobi Cup.
What Cosmetics Do You Get In The Obi-Wan Kenobi Bundle?
Obi-Wan Kenobi is part of the set of the same name in Fortnite. This includes the following cosmetics:
Outfit Obi-Wan Kenobi
Hope survives.
The fans have been waiting for a long time, and now he is in Fortnite! It took long enough too. But at least the rumors were true.
Obi-Wan's Blade Pickaxe
More powerful than you can even imagine.
Razor sharp and always ready for battle! Or for farming materials. However you use it, this pickaxe is sure to complete your Obi-Wan outfit!
Desert Essentials Back Bling
The perfect kit for living in isolation on a remote desert planet.
The back bling is included in the outfit and ensures your survival on the desert planets. Fortnite may be a tropical island, but hey, a little extra gear never hurts.
Emote Obi-Wan's Message
An important message.
Okay, to be honest, the message isn't that important, but this hologram is somehow part of Star Wars. So Kenobi has his own holo emote too. You can get it individually for 200 V-Bucks.
Jedi Interceptor Glider
Your new starfighter is ready.
What else would Obi-Wan be gliding across the Fortnite map with if not the Jedi Interceptor? You can buy the glider in a bundle or individually for 1,200 V-Bucks in the item shop.
