Fortnite's Master Chief Returns: How to Grab the Legendary Spartan

The iconic Master Chief from the Halo franchise has returned to the Fortnite Item Shop! But don't delay – this legendary Gaming Legends skin won't be around forever. Last seen in June 2022, this Christmas surprise (December 23rd, 2024) gives players another chance to suit up as Petty Officer John-117.

This guide details how to acquire Master Chief and his stylish Matte Black variant.

Getting Master Chief:

The standard Master Chief outfit, featuring his Halo Infinite armor, costs 1,500 V-Bucks. Purchasing it also unlocks the Battle Legend Back Bling for free.

For a complete package, consider the Master Chief Bundle (2,600 V-Bucks), which includes:

• Master Chief Outfit
• Battle Legend Back Bling
• Gravity Hammer Pickaxe (also available separately for 800 V-Bucks)
• UNSC Pelican Glider (also available separately for 1,200 V-Bucks)
• Lil' Warthog Emote (also available separately for 500 V-Bucks)

Unlocking Matte Black Master Chief:

Epic Games has confirmed that the highly sought-after Matte Black style for the Master Chief outfit is still unlockable. Here's how:

1. Purchase the Master Chief outfit.
2. Play a single Fortnite Battle Royale match on an Xbox Series X|S console.

The Matte Black style will then be added to your locker. This contradicts earlier statements about the style's unavailability, so act fast!
