If you want to know how to get Geralt in Fortnite, you're in the right place. Fortnite is well known for how many crossovers it is responsible for. Over the last few years, it has collaborated with tonnes of huge shows, games, movies, and artists. This has led it to a point where we're never quite sure which character we'll see next. In a surprise bit of news, Fortnite has crossed over with The Witcher.

In this guide, we'll go over everything you need to know about Geralt in Fortnite, from how to get him, to how he works, and much more. This should serve as a base of knowledge for you to grab him and play him for yourself.

When is the Fortnite Geralt skin release date?

You can get Geralt for yourself on February 7, 2023. This will be part of the current season, but the team behind the game will spend some time teasing it before it officially launches.

We don't yet have the official release time just yet, but we should know a little closer to Geralt's launch. February 7 is a Tuesday, and Fortnite tends to do big updates and weekly challenge resets on Tuesdays, so this makes sense. We'll update you right here as information comes in.

How do I get the Fortnite Geralt skin?

As one of the premium skins in the Chapter 4 Season 1 battle pass, Geralt can't just be bought in the Item Shop like many other Fortnite skins. Instead, this skin will work similarly to the Indiana Jones or Prowler skins from the past few seasons.

When February 7 rocks up, you should be able to get Geralt through a special challenge or objective series. Generally, you are given a handful of major objectives, provided you have the battle pass. It has its own set of mini reward ladders, ranging from loading screens to pickaxes. If you can do them all, you will unlock the skin as the final reward tier in this special quest area.

How much is Geralt in Fortnite?

Unfortunately for those without the battle pass, it's very unlikely that you'll be able to buy the Geralt skin in Fortnite. As an objective-exclusive skin, it wouldn't make much sense for it to also release as a paid item.

Therefore, you'll have to spend the 950 V-Bucks to grab the season pass for this season, and progress through the objectives as listed above. There's no way to bypass the process by spending more money - you'll have to grind to get the Witcher in Fortnite!
