How to get Fortnite’s Syd skin

After 264 days, one of Fortnite‘s most popular skins is back, and if you want to get your hands on it, we can tell you how to unlock and wear the skin.

Syd was first added to the game in July 2022, but was removed from the Item Shop just days later. It has returned to the store six times since then, but never for very long, meaning that if you didn’t get it in that window, you were out of luck.

Nine months since Syd’s last appearance, the character has finally returned as part of Fortnite‘s 30.10 update, and here’s how you can get it.

How to get the Syd Fortnite skin

The Syd Fortnite skin is currently available in the in-game Item Shop, and can be purchased for 1,200 V-Bucks.

Along with the skin, you also get two additional skin styles, a LEGO Fortnite skin, and the Cuddlebear Cutie back bling. Not bad for 1,200 V-Bucks. If you want even more content, the Beary Cuddly Bundle includes all of the above, plus the Weighted Spikegloves pickaxe and the Heartwave weapon wrap.

How long is Syd going to stay in Fortnite?

According to Fortnite.gg, Syd will stay in the Item Shop until June 27, when it will disappear again. Of course, this hasn’t been confirmed by Epic, but gives you a rough idea of when it will be removed.

If you want this skin and are definitely going to buy it, I’d recommend getting it as soon as possible, as you don’t want to wait another 264 days for the chance to buy it.
