Fortnite's Master Chief Returns: How to Get the Legendary Spartan
The legendary Master Chief from the Halo franchise is back in the Fortnite Item Shop! This iconic Spartan isn't sticking around long, so grab him before he's gone again. Last seen on June 3, 2022, this Christmas miracle brings him back starting December 23, 2024, at 7 PM ET.
This isn't just a skin; it's a full bundle of Halo goodness. But how much will it cost you, and what's included? Let's break it down.
Getting Master Chief in Fortnite
The Master Chief outfit itself will set you back 1,500 V-Bucks. This purchase includes the iconic Halo Infinite armor and the Battle Legend Back Bling – completely free!
While there's no LEGO style this time, you can also grab additional Halo-themed items either individually or as part of the Master Chief Bundle:
| Item Name | Item Type | Item Cost (V-Bucks) |
|---|---|---|
| Master Chief Bundle | Bundle | 2,600 |
| Master Chief Outfit | Outfit | 1,500 |
| Gravity Hammer | Pickaxe | 800 |
| UNSC Pelican | Glider | 1,200 |
| Lil' Warthog Emote | Emote | 500 |
The Master Chief Bundle includes: the outfit, back bling, pickaxe, glider, and emote. This bundle offers a slight V-Bucks saving compared to buying items separately.
Important Note: Master Chief will only be available in the Fortnite Item Shop until December 30, 7 PM ET. Don't miss out!
