The Mothman skin has made its way back to Fortnite in Chapter 6, Season 4, with the latest update v37.51. This skin was released as part of the Fortnitemares 2025 event and quickly became one of the most talked-about outfits in the game. Inspired by the mysterious Mothmando from Chapter 1, Season 6, the new version adds a modern twist while keeping that same spooky charm.
Interestingly, if you equip the Mothman outfit and interact with The Mothman NPC in the game, you’ll get access to a special hidden dialogue, making it even more fun for players who love Fortnite’s story details.
A Spooky Look with a Fun Twist
The Mothman skin comes with a special LEGO Style, which lets you take him into LEGO Fortnite Odyssey. This crossover has been well-received by fans who enjoy switching between the eerie world of Fortnitemares and the colorful LEGO version of Fortnite. Despite his creepy design, Mothman fits surprisingly well in both modes.
How to Get the Mothman Skin in Fortnite
You can get the Mothman skin directly from the Fortnite Item Shop under the “Fortnitemares” tab. As of October 27, 2025, the outfit is available as part of the Cryptic Cryptid Set.
Here’s what’s included in the set:
- The Mothman (Outfit + LEGO Style): 1,200 V-Bucks
- Cryptid Claws (Pickaxe): 800 V-Bucks
- Moth Eye Wings (Back Bling): 300 V-Bucks
If you prefer the full collection, Epic Games also offers a bundle for 1,600 V-Bucks, giving you all items at a lower combined price.
Availability and Duration
The Mothman skin will stay in the Item Shop until October 29, 2025, at 8 PM ET. After that, it will rotate out but is expected to return in future Fortnitemares events, as it’s not an exclusive limited-time skin. So if you miss it this time, there’s still a chance to grab it later.
Why Players Love the Mothman Skin
Players have praised the Mothman for its unique glow effects, sharp design, and great animation, making it one of the standout spooky outfits this season. The mix of dark tones with glowing eyes and smooth textures makes it both creepy and stylish. Plus, the LEGO mode adds a lighter, more playful look, giving the skin more versatility than most Halloween releases.
