Throughout Chapter 2 Season 5, hunter characters have been added to Fortnite. From Kratos from the God of War to the Master Chief from Halo, many crossover characters have been inserted into the game for players to purchase and unlock. Based on clues placed in-game and leaks from dataminers, it’s all but confirmed that the Predator will be a hunter skin appearing in-game.
How to unlock the Fortnite Predator skin
To unlock the Fortnite Predator skin, players need to complete enough Jungle Hunter quests.
The Fortnite Predator challenges can be found in the Season 5 Mystery Rewards section of the Battle Pass. Several challenges are unlocked now and can be completed, however the others won’t be made available until January 20.

Completing the first three challenges will unlock various Predator-themed cosmetic unlocks, which all but confirm that a Predator skin will be coming soon. Clues in the Stealthy Stronghold location offer further evidence of a Predator skin or character being added.
As mentioned above, it won’t be possible to legitimately unlock the Predator skin until the release date of January 20, so don’t expect to see it in-game until then. However, dataminers could find the skin in the game files and provide an early look at it. This post will be updated with any developments as they occur.
