Fans of Wednesday Addams can finally bring her dark charm into Fortnite – without spending a cent. Here’s how to claim the Wednesday skin for free and stand out in every match.
Apart from its gameplay, where killers like Ghostface are on the loose with their Last Call item, the goth queen, Wednesday Addams, is set to make her arrival among the game’s 10 collabs ongoing during the entire Fortnitemares event. Here’s when you’ll be able to get Wednesday skin and cosmetics in Fortnite, and if you’re looking for a way to get them for free, we’ve got you covered too.
Wednesday Fortnite Cup Start Date and Rewards
The Wednesday Fortnite Cup kicks off on February 5, 2026, offering players the opportunity to earn the exclusive Wednesday Addams skin before it appears in the item shop. Participants who rank high enough during the event will receive the skin, themed accessories, and a matching back bling for free. Epic Games has confirmed that only those meeting the placement requirements during the official cup hours will get these rewards without spending V-Bucks.
According to Twitter, Wednesday Addams Cup in Fortnite will take place on October 23, 2025 (check in-game compete tab for local timings), and will be a one-day-only tournament that will last for a duration of four hours. Players will play 10 matches, and at the end, the top scorers will be placed on a regional leaderboard.
Players who score a minimum of 8 points will unlock the Grave Wednesday Spray and top regional placements will get the free Wednesday Addams Outfit before anyone in their Fortnite lockers. The top placements vary between regions, for instance, in EU, the rank prize will be granted to positions 1st – 850th, while in NA Central, it’ll be 1st – 500th.
When Does Wednesday Come Out in Fortnite?
The Wednesday Addams skin is expected to arrive in Fortnite as part of a crossover event tied to the popular Netflix series. Although Epic Games hasn’t confirmed an exact release date yet, leaks and in-game files suggest it could appear during the next major update or seasonal event. Players can anticipate a themed bundle including the Wednesday outfit, back bling, and possibly a special emote reflecting her iconic personality.
Right now, no release date for Wednesday Addams Fortnite skin has been leaked yet, but as per rumors, players can expect the full collab in the Item Shop on October 24 at 8 PM ET.
Sure you’ll need to spend your V-Bucks to purchase the skin bundle and cosmetics, however, if you’d like to grab them early and for free, grind your way towards the top in the above-mentioned tournament.
