Fortnite players like to use cosmetic skins in their locker to don their look before they jump into a Battle Royale match. However, those who cannot afford the paid skins are left with a default character that Fortnite imposes on them.
Earlier in Chapter 1, characters like Jonesy, Renegade, Ramirez etc. were the default characters which players had grown up playing, and these are mostly seen in a lobby worn by bots and a lot of other players in common. However, now in lobbies players are seeing one skin used so commonly that it’s a new default skin in the game.
The free Juice WRLD skin is the new default Fortnite skin
Fortnite has started granting players the free Slayer Juice WRLD skin starting November 25th until November 30th till before the upcoming live event. The redemption process is quite simple, just log in during this period and you’ll automatically get the skin in 24 hours.
However since the skin is free for all and requires no grind, players are claiming it endlessly and using the cel-shaded outfit in lobbies to commemorate the late rapper Juice WRLD. Upon seeing this, data miners like HYPEX were amazed and termed it as the “new default skin” in Fortnite lobbies.
Agreeing with the sentiment, several other players also chimed in where one said, “I think it’s so cool, I mean, we’re in a tribute.” Another chimed in, “The best default skin, very rare.” A third user wrote, “I mean it’s free why wouldn’t a noob wear it lol.”
Despite being the redemption process of the free skin being simple, some players are still facing issues redeeming it and are confused if they did something wrong. If you’re one of those too, check out this page for a solution.
