When it comes to Fortnite collaborations, two franchises stand out as being heavily represented compared to everything else: Marvel and Star Wars. Marvel is about to get another season of its own, while Star Wars events and skins regularly appear in the game. This year, fans can look forward to a Moff Gideon Fortnite skin joining the collection of Star Wars skins available in the Item Shop.
Fortnite has already featured many iconic Star Wars characters from the original trilogy and prequels. At the recent Fortnite D23 announcements, more skins were revealed, this time inspired by characters from “The Mandalorian,” a popular Disney+ series set in the Star Wars universe.
The Moff Gideon Fortnite skin is one of the recent additions to the game. Players can embody the villainous Moff Gideon, complete with both masked and unmasked versions. Fans of actor Giancarlo Esposito, who portrays Moff Gideon in “The Mandalorian,” will be excited to play as this iconic character.
The inclusion of Moff Gideon’s unmasked version adds depth to the character skin and sets it apart from typical stormtrooper variations. Fans can enjoy this unique addition until Fortnite potentially collaborates with other franchises like “The Boys” or “Better Call Saul.”
How to Obtain the Moff Gideon Skin
The Moff Gideon Fortnite skin was recently announced and released quickly. Unlike other skins that may be obtained through Battle Passes or event passes, this particular skin can only be acquired through the Item Shop. Players can use V-Bucks to purchase the Moff Gideon skin and add it to their collection.
