How to get Katalina skin in Fortnite fast and free

Even if you have a stacked skin collection in Fortnite, adding new options to pick from will always be on the agenda.

What’s more, if you’re able to do this without spending a penny, it’s even more of a draw.

The Katalina skin in Fortnite definitely falls into that category and is available completely free of charge if you know the method.

Here, we’ll reveal how to unlock the Katalina skin in Fortnite fast and free so you can equip this cat-themed outfit.

How to get the Fortnite Katalina skin

To get the Katalina skin in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4, you must play the game on mobile.

This is because the requirement for unlocking is to secure 100,000 XP while playing Fortnite on either your iOS or Android device, celebrating the fact that it is now available once again for download on the respective app stores.

There was a method of unlocking the above without using a mobile device, exploiting fan-made maps, but this has since been patched, and there may not be another workaround found.

The Katalina skin isn’t all you earn for reaching 100,000 XP though since the outfit is in fact part of the Feline Fandom set consisting of various cosmetics.

You’re able to secure a Wrap, Pickaxe, and even a Backbling, as you progress toward that all-important 100k mark.

Here are the different tiers you need to hit to get all of the cosmetics in the Feline Fandom set:

  • Earn 25k XP in Fortnite Mobile – Tactical Kat Wrap
  • Earn 50k XP in Fortnite Mobile – Kat Claws Pickaxe
  • Earn 75k XP in Fortnite Mobile – Katalina’s Kit Bag Backbling
  • Earn 100k XP in Fortnite Mobile – Katalina Outfit (Normal & LEGO variant)

One caveat though is that the XP demands need to be met by November 2, 2024 so keep that in mind before putting it off and potentially missing out on this great bundle.
