Add as a preferred source on Google

Over the course of its life cycle, Fortnite has been home to a wide variety of memorable characters, including Deadpool, Master Chief, and Kratos. Joining the impressive lineup are Daryl Dixon and Michonne from The Walking Dead. This duo of characters was originally announced during The Game Awards 2020, and are finally available to all players now.

However, it might not be entirely clear how to obtain them. Luckily, we’re here to help with that. In this guide, we’ll show you everything you’ll need to know about obtaining the Daryl Dixon and Michonne skins in Fortnite.

As with most Fortnite skins, you must purchase them using V-bucks, which serve as the game’s currency. Luckily, you can unlock V-bucks by leveling up your Battle Pass. Every six or seven levels, the game awards you with 100 V-bucks for free. Otherwise, if you don’t have enough, you’ll need to purchase V-bucks using real money. Remember, 2,800 V-bucks is equal to around $20.

In the case of Daryl Dixon and Michonne, the best option to acquire both of them is the Survivors in Arms bundle, which comes with both outfits, one additional style each, one Back Bling each, and both of the character’s Harvesting Tools. Based on the countdown timer, it appears like this set will only be available today, December 17, 2020, and might be the only chance you have to get them. Sometimes, however, at the end of a season, Epic Games re-releases characters that you can purchase if you might’ve missed them earlier on. That might be the case with these two skins, though it hasn’t been officially announced.

If you’re looking for just one or the other, you’ll want to purchase them individually for 1,800 V-bucks. Each will come with their Back Bling and Harvesting Tool, along with their additional style. Though, if you want both characters, you should just buy the bundle.

Michonne — 1,800 V-bucks

This pack is available for those who just want the Michonne skin.

Remember, these skins are simply cosmetic and have no impact on the gameplay. The same is true for the Back Bling and Harvesting Tool. Fortnite’s season 5 just started and has already included several iconic characters, leaving many to believe we’ll see even more later on. We got Master Chief from Halo representing Xbox, and Kratos from God of War representing PlayStation. Will we see a famous Nintendo character appear, as well?

Sony just handed Kojima’s PHYSINT to Xbox, and PlayStation fans aren’t going to like it
Another exclusive walks out the door, and Sony has only itself to blame.

Sony has just made a decision that feels straight out of a "how to lose fans" playbook. In a statement posted on X, PlayStation Studios confirmed it is stepping away from Hideo Kojima's PHYSINT after what it called three decades of "industry-leading, genre-defining" collaboration. Barely minutes later, Xbox confirmed it would publish the game instead, expanding its existing partnership with Kojima Productions.
