Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 7 is here, and players are getting to witness new collabs and fresh skins making their way into the game. Fortnite is known for its outlandish collabs and unique skins that are added every now and then.

Epic has a unique way of bringing in new skins into Fortnite. Instead of bombarding loopers with new skins, Epic has a unique way of rotating the skins in the store, bringing in some while removing others.

This paid off quite well, as players have been trying to get their hands on these skins as soon as it is launched. While some skins left a mark on players, some were forgotten. This article will focus on 5 forgotten Fortnite skins that took ages to unlock.
