Fortnite has a lot of colllabs, but some end up out of the shop for quite a long stretch of time. Lately, the Fortnite Resident Evil skins have become some of these items. Having been missing from the shop for years. These are often talked about skins. Featuring some of the most iconic characters in gaming. However, they haven’t been back for quite a while.
Out of the total number of Fortnite skins, there’s literally thousands. Which naturally means some won’t turn back up for a while. The Resident Evil skins, as a popular collab, don’t feel like skins that should be gone for the long haul. However, Epic hasn’t decided to bring them back for quite a while now. What are the Resident Evil Fortnite skins and are we expecting them to actually return to the game any time soon?

There’s been a handful of Fortnite Resident Evil skins added to the game so far. Two pairs, covering the most iconic parts of Resident Evil. They’re all part of the Gaming Legends series, which brings gaming’s biggest characters into Fortnite. These are the skins we’ve seen added so far:
- Chris Redfield
- Leon Kennedy
- Jill Valentine
- Claire Redfield
There could be more Resident Evil skins included in the future too. We’re set to see tie in skins for new Resident Evil games, and some characters from those titles have become just as iconic as the older characters. Although, before we get any more, some players are likely hoping they get an opportunity to pick up the initial batches of Resident Evil skins.

Since there’s quite a few Fortnite Resident Evil skins, they don’t all come back at once. However, they aren’t really in the rotation that comes back all the time. Not exactly the rarest skins in Fortnite, but at the moment they’ve been missing for over a year. The skins were last seen on April 24th 2023. Which makes them rarer, especially for newer players.
There’s not big occasion that makes them likely to come back. Although, there’s nothing really stopping them. With the recent changes to the bundles or the item shop, hopefully they’ll be coming back to us sooner than later.
