Customizable Fortnite cosmetics have grown quite popular over the years. The superhero skins that allow players to be almost anything they want are the best example. But many cosmetics these days have at least a few different styles for customization.

At one point in the game, what players saw with a cosmetic was what they got. Since Epic Games began adding alternate styles, fans have been able to get a lot more creative.

Now, almost everything is at least a little bit customizable, but naturally, some take this to a greater extent than others. The Gourdy Halloween back bling is perhaps the most player-friendly in the entire game.

The Gourdy back bling has nearly 700 different styles and can be molded into almost anything players want. The options are just about endless, much more so than almost any customizable cosmetic.

The back bling has different styles for the following:

  • Mouth
  • Nose
  • Eyes
  • Topper
  • Color

Each one has several different options, which can be paired with various selections from other parts. All told, this back bling can look 700 different ways.

A single mouth can be combined with another set of eyes, and the topper and color to go along with that. Any combination can be altered greatly or slightly to produce new blends, all of which are different from the last.

This Fortnite back bling is perfect for the Halloween season, since it's a pumpkin head with which gamers can do whatever they want.

It was first introduced in Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 8. Since it only costs 400 V-Bucks, it is one of the best back blings at such a low price.

It has been in the Item Shop nine times since it was first added, with the most recent one having occurred 16 days ago. It's very possible that it will return to the shop before Fortnitemares ends on November 1.

If you own the Gourdy back bling, here is how you can customize it:

  1. First, navigate to the locker, it will be the fourth tab.
  2. Next, select the back bling you are currently using to swap.
  3. Find Gourdy. This can be done by scrolling endlessly, but there is a search feature as well as a sorting option that can find it quicker. Select it once you find it.
  4. At the bottom of the screen, click Edit Styles. This will bring up the customization menu. There are options for the nose, eyes, topper, and color, in that order. First, select a nose from one of the six options.
  5. Next, do the same for the eyes. Follow that up with the topper and finish the back bling off with the color, which changes the glow in the pumpkin's cut-out sections.
  6. After doing that, click Equip and you will return to the locker. Feel free to set up a locker around the back bling as it is a perfect one to reuse every Halloween season.

The aforementioned instructions will help you fashion your own preference from the 700 potential combinations that the Gourdy back bling offers in Fortnite.
