Fans of the game could agree that choosing the best skins to buy or work toward is getting tougher and tougher as each new release comes out.

Updated December 17th, 2020 by Juliet Childers:By now,Fortnitehas released so many skins that it’s impossible to pick just one as a fan favorite. There were dark horses like Bushranger and Guff vs. themed skins such as Raven and Scourge. But the list of the bestFortniteskins from 2020 has to include a select few featured in the shop, from the Battlepass, and from promotions. Which fan favorites made the cut?
15Midas
The golden-skinned Midas is the boss that patrolsthe grounds in the Agency– the once highly-guarded Ghost fortress that lay smack dab in the middle of the map. He could be taken down so players could obtain his vault keycard and his legendary Midas drum gun. His epic outfit could only be earned by Season 12 Battle Pass players once they hit Tier 100 and can be worn in different styles.
Players can opt for his mostly human tattooed form to his fully solid gold form. Fans of the Midas skin will also probably enjoythe startinglyAmong Us-like modeinFortnite.
14Cyclo
The awesome outfit of Cyclo released in the summer of 2020, invoking Mysterio from the recentSpiderman: Far From Homefilm. The iconic figure looks like a human version of the purple storm thatFortnitefans know and fear.
His head is a swirling vortex of the storm held under a big glass helmet. His electric body is covered by a futuristic metal outfit with attached gear. The outfit also comes with Cyclo’s Windshear Cloak which makes the character even spookier and more mystical.
13Rippley Vs. Sludge
This adorable yet eerily unsettling skin was first released with the Season 11 Battle Pass and players could unlock it at Tier 20. However, the bright blue blobby character can still be found in an averageFortnitematch. This makes him one of the most loved and represented unlockable skins from the 2019-2020 Season 11.

There’s just something about that giant bulky liquid body and floating face with tiny beady eyes and an adorable smile that makes the character so appealing.
12Moxie
Many fans appreciate the unique stylings of Moxie – and not just for her two forms. Her outfit is classified as rare and was released as a part of the TKO set. Moxie walks the line between cute and hardcore, so she can match a player’s mood easily.
She can rock a shiny teal outfit with matching blue face paint and ponytails or she can be dressed up in a black and red hooded romper. Either way, she looks totally hardcore and ready to knock someone out. Her outfit also comes with a punching glove backpack attachment that is too cute to boot.
11Agent Peely
This banana headed agent is the first skin players unlocked from the Season 12 Battle Pass. The banana man sports a snazzy tuxedo that is sure to turn some heads and drop some jaws. Fans of the character can also unlock and equip other fruit-themed items and skins.
This includes the banana bomber, bananaxe, banana briefcase, and Spy VS. Banana wallpaper if they just really love the healthy yellow snack. Players can even swap out his classic black tuxedo with a white one if they feel like it. Of course, if a player sees an all-gold Peely running around, they might want to avoid the no-doubt skilled player.
10Airhead
This rare character outfit doesn’t look like it belongsin a shoot-em-up style game, considering its head is an inflated red balloon that looks ready to pop at any moment. The skin resembles a training field’s sparring dummy with its makeshift body parts and giant painted target on its chest.

The multi-color scheme, non-human elements, and flashy details make Airhead really stand out from other skins. Usually selling for 1,200 V-bucks, Airhead pops into the store every now and again.
9Deadpool
Who wouldn’t want to run around killing enemies while dressed as the ever famousDeadpool?The iconic red outfit the wacky, fourth-wall-breakingcomic book characteris most known for is classified as a MarvelFortniteOutfit that is a part of the Deadpool set.
Though there are other variations of his outfit available at times, such as Cuddlepool and Ravenpool, this outfit is the ultimate classic that everyone knows and loves. There are different styles, as well, such as the grey suit and mask vs. no mask. This won’t be the last Marvel-themed skin on this list, but it has been leaked thatFortnitewill start including DC characters now, too.
8Oro
The skeleton skin Oro is a LegendaryFortniteOutfit that originally was released back in March of this year as a part of the Midas' Revenge set. He rocks a set of gold jewelry over his golden bones and decaying clothes that gives him the coolest and creepiest demeanor.
Oro comes available to the V-bucks store frequently but costs 2,000 smackers. Oro’s vibe is also distinctly different from the recentThe Walking Deadand zombie skins. His character is the best skin to rock for those who love the undead and looking like a filthy rich king.
7Travis Scott
Those who playedFortniteback in April 2020 will definitely remember the Travis Scott hype that swarmed the platform for over a week straight. The Houston rapper debuted a new single through the video game with a trippy and immersive digital concert experience.

6Meowscles
This skin is truly one of the more creative and head-turning options. Meowscles is a giant cat-man humanoid hybrid with giant muscles and a very dorky, small face. The character is topless to show off his bulging set of abs which makes the outfit an instant must-have or a must-avoid for fans of the game.
This outfit became available through the Season 12 Battle Pass and is unlocked once players hit Tier 60. He is also an in-game boss that players can defeat to use his legendary weapon andobtain his vault keycard.
