Fortnite has a huge list of skins and cosmetics, whether that be from a crossover or an original concept from the game. While a lot of them usually require you to purchase from the Item Shop, occasionally, the game gives out freebies anyone can grab just by completing missions. Now, in Chapter 5, Season 4, players finally have the chance to get their hands on the new Katalina skin for free. For the uninitiated, the only way to get this skin right now is by completing Fortnite missions from iOS and Android. Additionally, the iOS platform is restricted only to the EU at the moment. Due to all these requirements to get the free skin and other rewards, the community has gathered in a Reddit thread to voice their frustrations. \u201cI can\u2019t even get the free skin because I live in the UK and we aren\u2019t even in the European Union,\u201d said one user. Meanwhile, a different user claimed this is \u201cpretty much a slap in the face\u201d from Epic to players who dare \u201cown an iOS device outside of the EU.\u201d \u201cI\u2019ve been waiting for the Katalina skin since it was leaked and now I can\u2019t get it free because NA iPhone,\u201d commented another user. One chimed in, \u201cI\u2019m a Middle Eastern player, and I actually think this is extremely unfair.\u201d Many other players in the comments were also disappointed and upset, mainly because not only Fortnite doesn\u2019t run well on their phones but because playing on cloud services doesn\u2019t count for these quests. One user wrote: \u201cYeah, the only thing is Fortnite sucks on Android, it sucks dead***, am barely getting 30 frames per second despite having a f***ing flagship tablet, STW, Fortnite Festival &#038; Rocket Racing are unplayable, BR and ZB, are at disadvantage. it\u2019s just another f***ing lazy mobile port.\u201d However, there is a workaround to get this free skin regardless of your device. Many players suggest taking advantage of it before it gets patched out for those who struggle to get it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fortnite players slam Epic for \u201cextremely unfair\u201d way to get free skin epic gamesFortnite has just released a new free skin in Chapter 5 Season 4, but players aren\u2019t particularly happy over the method of obtaining it.
