Sonic the Hedgehog, Shadow the Hedgehog, Knuckles the Echidna, Dr. Eggman, and Tails have all joined Fortnite! While there’s a whole catalog of Sonic characters, there are perhaps none more important (or popular) than these five. Below, we’ll share all Sonic the Hedgehog skins in Fortnite, including the secret Super Sonic and Super Shadow styles you might not know about. If any other Sonic skins come to Fortnite (like Robot Sonic), then you’ll find them added below along with the methods of obtaining them.
Sonic the Hedgehog
- 800 V-Bucks (or Fortnite Crew)
Sonic the Hedgehog is exclusive to the Chapter 7 Season 4 Battle Pass, which can be purchased for 800 V-Bucks. Thankfully, Sonic is the Page 1 Outfit, meaning all you need to do is purchase the Battlepass and then Sonic will be unlocked forever without the need to level up. However, if you want the Super Sonic Outfit Style, you will need to reach level 14, as Super Sonic requires you to unlock all items on Page 1 and Page 2.
Tails
- 800 V-Bucks (or Fortnite Crew)
Just like Sonic the Hedgehog, Tails is part of the Battle Pass, so you technically don’t need to purchase him as you can get him as the first reward on Page 2 of the Sonic the Hedgehog Pages. Tails is a Sidekick, meaning he can join your skins (and enemy players can’t see him). You can also use the Tails Lander (also from the Battle Pass) to make Tails your Glider!
Knuckles the Echidna
It’s Fortnite & Knuckles! Knuckles the Echidna joins the Battle Royale with his very own skin, and you can purchase him for 1,500 V-Bucks. While Knuckles doesn’t have any additional styles, he does come with his Knuckles’ Gloves, which can be used as a Pickaxe to punch and harvest materials.
Shadow the Hedgehog
The ultimate lifeform joins the fight (as an android). Shadow the Hedgehog will cost 1,800 V-Bucks, and the reason it’s 300 V-Bucks more than the rest is that he comes with the Doom’s Eye Back Bling (which has a separate price of 300 V-Bucks) and the Super Shadow Transformation Built-In Emote, which will allow you to play as Super Shadow as a bonus Outfit Style!
You can purchase Shadow & Knuckles together in the Shadow the Hedgehog & Knuckles the Echidna Bundle for 3,300 V-Bucks. This is a steal, as the bundle includes items worth over 8,000 V-Bucks:

Dr. Eggman
The nefarious Dr. Eggman has also joined Fortnite, aiding the villains on the Battle Royale island. While you can find Dr. Eggman on the map as a boss fight, you can also find him in the Item Shop for 1,500 V-Bucks. Dr. Eggman only comes with the Orbot and Cubot Back Bling (which has a separate price of 300 V-Bucks), but you can also purchase the Dr. Eggman Bundle for 2,000 V-Bucks, which comes with the following items at no extra cost:
