Better yet, it includes tonnes of block versions of classic skins from the main game.

After a groundbreaking live Big Bang event headlined by Eminem himself, Chapter 5 is now in full swing.

The maps and modes are epic, and yes, it's now been confirmed that Peter Griffin and Solid Snake are available skins.

From 7th December, players have been able to combine their love of Fortnite with the blocky creativity of LEGO.

Over 1,200 outfits in Fortnite now have a corresponding LEGO version, which you can use in the LEGO mode. You cannot use LEGO outfits in other modes.

Read on to find out how to get LEGO Fortnite skins, how to unlock the Explorer Emilie outfit, and for a full list of the over 1,200 LEGO skins currently in the game.

How to get the LEGO Explorer Emilie skin in Fortnite

If you want the LEGO Insider Fortnite skin, also known as the Explorer Emilie outfit, you'll need to sign up to the LEGO Insiders loyalty program — which is free, don't worry!

Then, connect your LEGO account to your Fortnite account on the Epic Games website. You should be able to do this if you log into Epic and follow these steps:

  • Navigate to the 'Accounts' section by clicking on the drop-down menu in the top-right corner (little round button)
  • Then go to 'Apps and Accounts' using the menu on the left-hand side
  • Now you'll see the option to connect your LEGO membership

If you did this before the deadline (LEGO Fortnite's lunchtime launch on 7th December), the Explorer Emilie skin should be in your inventory next time you load up the game. Make sure you have the latest update installed and the skin — both a LEGO and non-LEGO version — should be waiting for you upon login!

When is the LEGO Explorer Emilie skin releasing?

The LEGO Explorer Emilie skin released on Thursday 7th December 2023, around lunch time from a UK perspective.

This was to coincide with the LEGO mode that launched on that date, which is available now across the globe for free.

Fortnite LEGO Styles and how to use them

However, there is a way to LEGO-fy your experience even if you didn't manage to claim that free skin on time: over 1,200 skins now have a LEGO style. If you already have the skin, the blocky version is yours for no extra cost.

The LEGO style of the outfits you own will already be in your locker. And to check if a skin you're buying has a LEGO version, check the details page in the shop!

Once you're in the LEGO Fortnite mode, it'll be very obvious which skins in your collection do or do not have a LEGO version — those that don't will be greyed out in your locker, while the others will not be visible in their beautiful brick-based form.

All LEGO Fortnite skins: Full list of brick-based outfits

There are over 1,200 LEGO Fortnite skins, with the vast majority of outfits from the main Fortnite game having been remade in brick-based fashion upon the LEGO mode's launch.

Your favourites like Peely, Magnus and Fishstick are all accounted for. Even a good number of crossover skins have LEGO counterparts, with Marvel and Star Wars characters available, at least.

Rather than list all of them out (we'd be here all week, you'd be here all week), we've found a helpful YouTube video from Tabor Hill that showcases the lot of them.
