Fortnite Wilds is here, where a plethora of exciting new content awaits eager players, including the highly sought-after Optimus Prime skin.
Prepare to witness the arrival of the legendary Autobots leader as Optimus Prime himself graces the island, allowing you to embody this iconic Transformer’s character.
As expected, this remarkable skin comes at a price. However, fear not, as this article will guide you on how to get your hands on this Optimus Prime skin.
How to Earn Optimus Prime in Fortnite
To obtain Optimus Prime, you need to purchase the Chapter 4 Season 3 Battle Pass. After buying the Battle Pass, you need to reach Level 100 and claim the rewards on the previous pages.
The easiest ways to achieve this level are:
- Completing the Weekly Challenges
- Playing the game to earn XP
- Purchasing Battle Pass Levels
While, it has not been confirmed that Optimus Prime will be the Tier 100 skin, both Fortnite and Transformers teased it on Twitter.

The Battle Pass will cost you 950 V-Bucks to buy. If you do not have the in-game currency stored away, you must purchase 1000 V-Bucks for:
- £6.49
- $7.99
- €7.99
Players can also spend their money on the Fortnite Crew, which will award the Battle Pass as well as 1000 V-Bucks. Gamers will also receive a Crew Pack containing a skin, back bling and harvesting tool.
The Fortnite Crew is a monthly subscription that will set you back the following amount per month:
- £9.99
- $11.99
- €11.99

In previous seasons, players needed around 8 million XP to get to the 100th tier on the Battle Pass.
However, if you do not have the time to play, you can purchase in-game levels to fast-track the Battle Pass. Each Fortnite Level will cost you 150 V-Bucks.
As you start on Level 1, you will need to use 14,850 V-Bucks to reach Level 100. This will earn you 500 Battle Stars and the ability to unlock Optimus Prime.
Additionally, after unlocking Optimus Prime, you will be given access to the Battle Pass Bonus Rewards and Quest Rewards.
