Eminem is returning to Fortnite with the release of his latest skin, Rap Boy Reloaded. This fresh take on the iconic rapper’s appearance brings elements from his recent “Houdini” music video into the battle royale. If you’re wondering whether this new skin is worth your V-Bucks or which style to choose, here’s everything you should know about how to get the Eminem Rap Boy Reloaded skin in Fortnite.
How to Get Rap Boy Reloaded Skin in Fortnite
The Rap Boy Reloaded Skin launched in Fortnite on November 7, 2024, alongside Week 2 of Chapter 2 Remix. You can now purchase it as soon as your local Item Shop refreshes. The skin is expected to remain available until November 20, 11:59 PM ET, giving you two weeks to make your purchase before it rotates out of the shop.
When it comes to getting your hands on this new skin, you have two main options. The first is the individual purchase, which costs 1,500 V-Bucks and includes both the Rap Boy Reloaded Outfit and the Evil Twin Tanks back bling. This option is perfect if you’re only interested in the main skin itself.

Your second option is the Back Again Bundle, priced at 2,400 V-Bucks. The bundle includes the following items above.
The purchase process is straightforward. Simply launch Fortnite and head to the Item Shop. Make sure you have enough V-Bucks to make the purchase. That’s all!
Rap Boy Reloaded | Slim’s Mask Rap Boy Reloaded |
The Rap Boy Reloaded skin comes in two distinct styles. The Default Style gives you the classic Rap Boy Reloaded look, while the Slim’s Mask option offers an alternative appearance with an added mask feature. Switching between styles is simple – just visit your locker, select the skin, and use the style selector to choose your preferred look.
Is the Eminem Rap Boy Skin Worth Your V-Bucks
The base skin at 1,500 V-Bucks aligns with standard Icon Series pricing, while the complete bundle at 2,400 V-Bucks is currently discounted for 700 V-Bucks from its original price. But is it worth your V-Bucks? Well, the answer to this question largely depends on how much you like Eminem. If you are a huge Eminem fan and have invested in his previous skins, there is no reason to stop yourself from getting this one.
For everyone else, you might want to wait and see what other artist collaborations Chapter 2 Remix has in store, including the upcoming Ice Spice skin, before making your decision. While the skin offers a clean design, there’s nothing particularly groundbreaking that makes it a must-have for casual players.
