Metallica brings the metal toFortnite, capping off Chapter 5 Season 3 with a concert to get the blood pumping and the carnage flowing. With the arrival of Metallica inFortnite, players can not only add these 4 band members to their lockers, but they can also add variations of them, perfect to use inFortniteFestival or Battle Royale, or even LEGOFortniteif players want to run around as mini figures of their favorite band members from Metallica.
There are a few ways to acquire each of these skins, and with the 4 band members appearing twice, Metallica fans are in for a treat when they load intoFortnite. It’s time to light up the tracks and bring forth the rock by looking below at the Metallica skins inFortnite.
Purchase Fortnite Festival’s Season 4 Premium Reward Track
All 4 Metallica members are locked behind theFortniteFestival Season 4 Pass. In order to unlock these cosmetics, players will need topurchase the Premium Reward Trackwhen they select theFortniteFestival playlist and head to the tab that says Festival Pass. Once on this screen, players can select the Premium Reward Track and confirm their purchase, to which they need1,800 V-Bucks. This is a fairly good deal, as whilst players won’t get any V-Bucks from the Festival Pass, they will receive 4 distinct skins from Metallica.
FortniteFestival Season 4 is active until June 22, 2025, so players will need to get ready to jam it out to unlock Festival Points and earn each of the band members. Luckily for fans of Lars Ulrich, players will acquire him first the moment they purchase the Premium Reward Track. The other members will need toraise their Festival Points, acquired throughFortniteFestival questsand simply by playing on the Main Stage and the new Battle Jam mode.

Reach 11,000 Festival Points (Must Have Premium Pass)
If players miss out on the Metallica skins, then they shouldbecome available in the Item Shop at a later date.However,the date remains unconfirmed, and each skin will most likely be priced separately instead of just 1,800 V-Bucks for all 4.
Purchase The Metallica Bundle In The Item Shop (3,400 V-Bucks)
Whilst the band members can all be acquired throughFortniteFestival’s Season 4 Pass, the more battle-ready versions of Metallica, the Puppet Masters, can be purchased in the Item Shop in aMetallica Bundle for 3,400 V-Bucks, which willsave them 3,700 V-Bucksin total if they were to buy all 15 items separately. Even better for Metallica fans, is theMetallica wrap, exclusive only to this Bundle.
Here’s a look at everything the Bundle comes with, alongside an individual price if players were to buy them separately:
Skull of the Storm
500 V-Bucks
Purchase Individual Metallica Skins For 1,500 V-Bucks Each
Individually, for 1,500 V-Buck, players can head to the Item Shop and purchase their favorite Metallica band member separate from the others.Each Outfit comes with a LEGO minifigurefor LEGOFortnite, as well as a unique Back Bling, and 5 Style options to choose from. These styles are rather unique, as players can give them all skull masks and change the colors of their reactive glow between yellow, blue, and red.
