One of the Rarest Fortnite Skins Just Made a Return

One of the rarest Fortnite skins just became a lot less rare. Every single cosmetic item has at least a chance of returning to the Item Shop at one point or another. If it was introduced for the shop, then it’s not going away forever. Some skins have taken extremely long hiatuses before and will do so in the future, but it’s not as if they can’t return.

Even if a skin has been gone for 1,200 days or more, which some have been, it’s not erased from the game permanently. Players may have thought that the Trench Raider was gone forever, but it made a return in a recent Item Shop cycle.

Fortnite Added Back One of the Rarest Skins

The Trench Raider had previously been last seen 1,689 days ago. It debuted and then three days later made a return to the Item Shop. Then it was gone for roughly four years. One of the rarest Fortnite skins finally came back on September 1, 2024. Leaks had predicted that it would return, and it did. That put an end to one of the longest Item Shop absences the game has ever seen. This leaves just one extremely rare skin that has yet to return in a while.

According to leaker ShiinaBR, Shaman is the last remaining non-exclusive Item Shop skin that hasn’t been seen since the turn of the decade. Every single other skin that was introduced before 2020 has been seen at least once since then, including Trench Raider. Shaman is now one of the rarest skins the game has because there just weren’t many opportunities to get it. It had just five appearances total, and the last one was 1,736 days ago.

Obviously, since Trench Raider came back, any skin can and likely will come back to the Item Shop. As for how long it will be until all the rest of the rarest skins out there come back, that remains to be seen. Clearly, Epic isn’t worried about the rarity and will bring anything back. They’ve done this time and again (not just with Trench Raider).
