Gamers know the hype Fortnite has. It is one of the most enduring online video gaming franchises to exist. First released in 2017 by Epic Games, it has become a cultural phenomenon and has developed quite a devoted fan base.
Recently, the creators have managed to stir excitement within their loyal community, courtesy of the return of one of its most elusive and beloved skins, Major Lazer, after four long years.
The Major Lazer Skin Returns
Major Lazer is a tribute to the globally recognised electronic music group of the same name. Originally introduced briefly in 2019, it was the second musician ever added to Fortnite as a skin.
The skin was quickly vaulted two weeks after its release in mid-June of 2021, adding to its rarity and desirability. As of July 2025, Major Lazer is the 12th-rarest shop skin in Fortnite, and the third-rarest in the Icon series.
The entire released bundle costs 2,400 V-Bucks and includes the skin (available for 1600), emote, pickaxe, back bling, and two music packs.
There is no official indication of the reason behind the popular skin’s sudden disappearance, but if history has taught us anything, players should hurry to grab Major Lazer because it could be vaulted again.
The timing of Major Lazer’s return is also pretty intriguing. Fortnite is experiencing a resurgence in popularity owing to new game modes and crossovers. So, it only makes sense to bring back beloved cosmetics.
Not only does the skin’s return reignite nostalgia among seasoned veterans, but it also introduces iconic content to a new generation of fans. For those players who missed out on the first time, it’s a welcome opportunity to grab Major Lazer again.
A Celebration of Fortnite’s Iconic Legacy
Fortnite is more than just an online multiplayer video game; it has created an enduring subculture that has brought diverse gamers together. This makes their skins, like Major Lazer, cultural icons.
Major Lazer’s comeback after four years is a celebration of Fortnite’s legacy of bold collaborations and community-driven nostalgia. His return is also a testament to Epic Game’s ability to delight its audience every now and then.
