Katalina is a free Fortnite skin that came out with Chapter 5 – Season 4. The skin can be easily unlocked by earning 100,000 XP in Fortnite’s game modes. However, the free cosmetic item is only available on mobile devices. Android players can get the free skin in any part of the world, while iOS players are only limited to the European Union.
Fortunately, there’s a trick you can use to get Katalina on any Fortnite platform. If you are from the United States or the United Kingdom and you use the iOS, there is no need to worry. In this article, we will explain all the steps you need to take to unlock the popular Fortnite skin for free.
How to unlock Katalina on any Fortnite system
Even if you don’t have a mobile device, you can unlock Katalina right away. To do this, you need to join a Fortnite Creative map with your friend. The trick is so easy that you can complete it in a few minutes, and you’ll get the skin right after!
Here are the steps you need to take:
- Find any Fortnite Creative (non-UEFN) map
- You can use code: 6155-1398-4059
- Join the map in a Private lobby
- Leave the match while your friend is still in it
- Re-join the match
Once you do these steps, you will be able to unlock Katalina by completing her quests. It’s important to note that the quests will only work for the player who re-joined the map. If your friend wants to complete them too, then they need to leave the map and re-join it while you are playing. However, keep in mind that the party leader should be the player who’s staying on the map.
Epic Games may patch this method very soon. Due to this, we suggest you do this as soon as possible. If you don’t have a friend who is willing to help you out, you can simply play Fortnite on GeForce Now.
To make the process of unlocking Katalina even faster, simply have your friend jump down to the arena for easy eliminations. Once you eliminate them 10 to 15 times, you will get enough XP to unlock the new free skin in Fortnite.
As soon as this method came out, we tested it and can confirm that it works as of Friday, 7 PM Eastern Time.
