Oh boy, there’s a Fortnite Stealth Reflex variant skin available for players to acquire. The special Counterattack set is only available to a certain amount of people, so you might want to know how to unlock it if you qualify. Find out if you do with our Fortnite Stealth Reflex variant skin guide.
Fortnite Stealth Reflex Variant Skin | How to unlock
There’s only one way that you can get the Fortnite Stealth Reflex variant skin. To unlock it, you’ll need to have purchased the GeForce Fortnite Bundle from the Nvidia website.
To apply for this, Nvidia asks you to upgrade your GeForce graphics card to the GTX 1070 Ti, 1070, 1060, 1050 Ti, or 1050. If you upgrade, you’ll be handed 2,000 V-Bucks to spend at the in-game store, as well as the Counterattack set. This gives you the skin as well as the outfit’s corresponding pickaxe, glider, and back bling.
Those who already that the Stealth Reflex skin were perturbed when Epic Games made the special outfit available for everyone to buy in the Fortnite store recently. As such, after some fan pressure, Epic agreed to make yet another special skin for those who had purchased, or will buy, the GeForce Bundle.
Fortnite Stealth Reflex Variant Skin | What about other platforms?
If you’re hoping that the Fortnite Stealth Reflex variant skin will come to other platforms such as Xbox One, PS4, Android, iPhone, or Nintendo Switch, it won’t be anytime soon. The new Counterattack set has only come to PC players via the GeForce Bundle recently, so it won’t be brought to the in-game shop within the next few months.
That could change some way down the line. Nobody expected the normal Stealth Reflex outfit to made available to everyone, but here we are. If Epic wants to offer it to players on consoles then it won’t be prevented from doing so. They may hear from those disgruntled GeForce Bundle buyers if they do though.

10 of Fortnite's Rarest Skins
Whether you're dropping into Fatal Fields or Greasy Grove, you want to look your best. Fortnite has countless skins, but there are those select few that prove that you put the work in. Whether you were just an early adopter or racked up the kills, here are a look at some of the rarest Fortnite skins around. -
Dire
Howl at the moon as Dire, the Werewolf Ninja Hero popping straight out of Save the World. It was the Tier 100 reward of the Season 6 battle pass, but that only got you his human form. To get him all wolfed out, you needed to complete a set of six challenges during the season. -
Galaxy
Would you purchase a cell phone just to get your hands on a Fortnite skin? Some people just may have done that to get Galaxy, the skin only available to owners of Samsung Galaxy phones and tablets during the Android beta period. He's shiny, but not that shiny. -
Giddy Up
Show your love for Fortnite's loot llamas by riding an inflatable one into battle. This jokey costume was available at Tier 23 of the Season 6 Battle Pass and comes with a custom emote. The female version of this skin, Yee-Haw!, is purchasable at the item store. -
Merry Marauder
Merry Marauder is an angry looking gingerbread man who released onto the item shop in December of 2017. He's a holiday-oriented fellow, so he only pops up when Santa is done checking his list twice. Purchasing him will also net you the Mini Marauder back bling, although that doesn't seem to make this ginger man any happier. -
Nightshade
Once you reached Tier 86 of the Season 6 Battle Pass, you received Nightshade. A female version of Tomatohead, she and her Night Cloak back bling are all part of the Pizza Pit theme; the perfect complement when you're fighting against the Burger menace. -
Recon Expert
Decidedly less flashy than other skins on this list, Recon Expect is rare solely due to its release window. It was one of the first skins to hit the shop, before the influx of players that made Fortnite the phenomenon that it is today. While it may rotate back onto the store someday, it's a rare find. -
Renegade Raider
Similar to Recon Expert, Renegade Rider only showed up very early in Fortnite's lifespan. Unlike Recon Expert, that apocalyptic melee weapon makes her fit in a bit more with the skull soldiers and vampires we're all used to seeing. Keep a lookout to see if this Raider will ever climb out of the bunker again. -
Royale Bomber
The Royale Bomber is a PlayStation exclusive, but that's not all. You only got this sunglass toting agent if you purchased specific PlayStation hardware. A controller in the U.S. and a console bundle in the European region. It's quite a hassle to look this good. -
The Reaper
Baba Yaga. The Boogeyman. The Reaper. All of these names apply to John Wick and also this somehow completely unrelated skin in Fortnite Awarded at the end of the Season 3 Battle Pass. Just don't tell anyone in Hollywood, I don't think they've noticed yet. -
Trog
Trog is love. Trog is life. Trog is the reward for Tier 71 of the Season 7 Battle Pass. We may never know where Trog is looking thanks to his famous cross-eyes, but we know that he loves all his children equally and also he is going to shoot some fools with a shotgun. Trog.
