Fortnite Festival is making a comeback for another season, offering a fresh take on the platform’s rhythm game. The highlight of the new season is the inclusion of Billie Eilish as the central icon. The popular singer brings with her a plethora of songs, emotes, and more in the Battle Pass. One of the most exciting additions in the latest update is the introduction of the Billie Eilish skin in Fortnite. But how can you get your hands on this sought-after skin?
Unlike traditional Fortnite Battle Royale progression, the Billie Eilish skin is not directly linked to the Battle Pass. Therefore, if you are used to unlocking Fortnite skins through the Battle Pass, you won’t find the skin there. However, fret not, as climbing up the pass to unlock the Billie Eilish skin in Fortnite is not a daunting task. Players can complete daily quests to expedite their progress through the pass. Alternatively, there is always the option to pay your way to the top of the Pass as well!

Unlocking the Billie Eilish Skin in Fortnite
The Fortnite Festival Season is divided into two tiers. The basic tier offers a few songs and items, while the premium tier is where you will find the coveted new skin and more. To get your hands on the Billie Eilish skin in Fortnite, you will need to access the premium tier of the pass.
The premium tier of the Fortnite Festival Season 3 Pass is priced at 1,800 V-Bucks. This cost may vary if you opt to purchase tiers instead of playing through them. Despite the price, the premium tier offers a range of exclusive items such as instruments, songs, loading screens, and more. While it may not provide as much value as the standard Battle Pass, it is a better option than buying a skin from the Fortnite item shop.
Currently, the Billie Eilish skin is exclusively available through the premium tier of the pass. While it may eventually make its way to the item shop in the future, the pass offers a unique skin style that you wouldn’t want to miss out on by waiting.
After purchasing the pass, the next step is to grind your way up the Pass to unlock the skin. Winning Battle Royale games in Fortnite won’t help you unlock the skin, as you need to engage in Festival gameplay to progress.

Leveling Up in Fortnite Festival
Festival is a rhythm game that allows players to immerse themselves in music. To complete quests and level up, players need to engage with specific quests that refresh daily. Similar to Match Quests in Battle Royale and Daily Quests in Rocket Racing, these quests provide the XP required for progressing through the Fortnite Festival Pass. By completing these quests and enjoying the available tracks, players can steadily progress towards unlocking the Billie Eilish skin in Fortnite.
It may take a few weeks of dedication to complete daily quests and reach the coveted skin, but the journey is sure to be enjoyable, with a variety of tracks to explore this season. Fortnite Festival Season 3 will continue beyond the current Fortnite season, giving players until June 13th to wrap up their progress.
