Last Updated on: 9th December 2022, 10:43 am

Icon Series Skins have been a part of Fortnite since Season X (although some may argue Season 7 with the release of Marshmello, even though the skin wasn’t labeled as an Icon Series Skin). The new Series was introduced as a way to celebrate Icons in the gaming industry.

The Icon Series is a collection of 21 different characters, from streamers to musicians, and athletes, with the Icon Series, also featuring a variety of additional items such as back blings, harvesting tools, and emotes.

Let’s take a look below at the Top 10 Icon Series Skins released to date so far, and explore what makes these skins above the rest.

At number 7 in our Icon Series Skins, we have the reggaetón global ambassador and five-time Latin GRAMMY? winner – J Balvin.

This Icon was originally featured in-game as part of the Fortnitemares in 2020, to then be further released as an Icon Series Skin, bringing with it, the iconic In Da Party Emote, with music from “In Da Getto” by J Balvin and Skrillex. The outfit even includes the J Balvin Air Jordan 1s. A colorful Icon Series Skin, more than deserving of a place on our Top 10 Icon Series Skins!

Number 6 – Travis Scott

It wouldn’t be the Top 10 Icon Series Skins if it didn’t feature Travis Scott!

Travis Scott’s introduction to the famous Island was as part of the Astronomical Event, an experience inspired by Cactus Jack’s creations, built from the ground up in Fortnite. This color event featured an array of Travis Scott’s hits and the iconic Sicko Mode! This event was seen as the event for all future events to be based on, and it really did not disappoint! Bravo Fortnite and Travis Scott!

At number 3, we have Marshmello! And this Top 10 Icon Series Skins list would most certainly not be complete with Marshmello!

Marshmello was first released in Chapter 1 Season 7, however, it wasn’t until later in the game that Marshmello was officially named an Icon Series Skin – at the time of the initial release, Icon Series Skins were not a named concept. However, I think everyone can agree, that he was most definitely, the first!

Marshmello was the artist behind the legendary live music event taking place in Pleasant Park, featuring his biggest collaborations. This event was like no other and shaped the way future Events took place in Fortnite.

Since the initial release, Marshemllo has returned with a different style, where he launched a new range of Fortnite X Marshmello merchandise, as well as a Female version of the skin too!

Number 1 – Ninja

We’ve made it to the number 1 spot, and the only person we believe worthy of 1st place is the legendary Ninja!

The American streamer and professional eSports player Tyler Blevins, more commonly known by his online alias “Ninja’, Ninja began playing esports with Halo, before migrating to Fortnite in 2017. He has since grown to be one of the biggest Twitch Streamers of all time with a staggering following of 15 million subscribers. Quickly becoming a household name with his iconic blue hair, Ninja won the hearts of players, and for that, we think Ninja is more than deserving of our first place in our Top 10 Icon Series Skins.
