Fortnite is home to numerous popular characters from the franchise. While some have obtained cult status, others have become synonymous with the game itself. One of these characters is known as Renegade Raider. She was a skin featured in-game during the early days of the battle royale title, and due to exclusivity, she has become an icon within the community.
Taking note of her status, Epic Games has been creating variants of the character for years on end now. At the moment, there are five in total, which includes the OG skin itself. That being said, here's a ranking of all the Renegade Raider Skins in Fortnite.
Fortnite Renegade Raiders skins ranked from most popular to least

When it comes to being popular in the "Renegade-Verse," the "OG" Renegade Raider skin is still the most popular in-game. Since it was specifically featured in the Item Shop during Chapter 1 Season 1, only a handful of people own it. While the community has been asking Epic Games to bring it back, it's unlikely that it will ever return to the Item Shop.
This is what makes it so rare and helps keep its popularity cemented in-game. That being said, the skin isn't radical in terms of design. It's pretty straightforward and pales in comparison to the newer skins that are being added to the game. Nevertheless, "old is undoubtedly gold."
2) Renegade Runner
Renegade Runner is the newest version of the character in-game. This skin was officially added to the files following the Fortnite update v24.20. She was created while keeping the futuristic vibe of the season in mind. Unlike the other variants of the character, Renegade Runner seems to be a cyborg.
In all probability, she was rifted in alongside Mega City and the Peace Syndicate. However, her role in the current phase of the storyline seems to be limited to cosmetics only. That said, she's currently featured in the Item Shop and the Renegade Robotics Bundle can be purchased for 1,600 V-Bucks.
3) Blaze
Blaze is a fiery version of Renegade Raider and was first featured in the Item Shop during Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 3. It's no secret that she hails from another reality and seemingly has the capability to control fire. She was even featured on the island as an NPC back in Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 6.
With all that being said, she's probably one of the more unique versions of the character. Although she's not currently available in the Item Shop, she can potentially be obtained for just 200 V-Bucks when listed. Players who participated in the Reboot Rally back in Chapter 3 Season 4 will be eligible to redeem this discount.
4) Skeletara
In Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 8, the most bizarre variant of Renegade Raider was introduced to the Item Shop during Fortnitemares 2021. Known as Skeletara, this version of the character is based around a glowing skeleton. Given that the spooky season usually features skins such as this one, it was well-received by the community.
While it's not unique in design as there are other similar skins in-game, for the price of 1,200 V-Bucks for the entire bundle, it was quite the steal. Since it's based on the Headhunter character model as well, it has become a must-have skin for diehard fans.
5) Permafrost Raider
The Permafrost Raider is a good skin, no doubt, but she lacks the impact that the aforementioned variants have. The only reason why most people own this skin is because she was featured in the Item Shop with the Black Ice Legends Bundle. The bundle in question contains an icy version of Midas called Icebound Midas.
Given Midas' popularity, several players jumped at the opportunity to buy the bundle, which is why they now own the Permafrost Raider skin. That said, this skin isn't all that bad. While fighting in the Ice/Snow biome of Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2, she can be used to gain a tactical advantage on the field.
6) Gingerbread Raider
Gingerbread Raider is arguably the variant that's closest to Renegade Raider. The character model resembles the OG skin, with the only difference being that it's based on a wintry theme. Although this variant looks amazing for festive occasions such as Winterfest, at other times, it doesn't feel that way.
Even so, the skin has been featured in the Item Shop over 30 times in and around the festive season. However, with each passing year and more skins being added to the game during Winterfest, Gingerbread Raider is slowly becoming unpopular. Given that the character has no appeal aside from being a variant of the OG skin, this is bound to happen.
