A brand-new Fortnite Xbox One bundle skin appears to be on the way. Well, when we say brand-new, the Xbox One S Fortnite skin is actually a dark purple version of the standard Vertex skin. You will get a swanky dark purple Xbox One S with your new Fortnite skin, however. Read on for the full details on the Fortnite Dark Vertex Xbox One skin. This includes how to unlock Vertex.
What is the Fortnite Xbox One Bundle Skin?
As stated above, it appears as though Microsoft is once again teaming up with Epic Games to deliver a new Fortnite skin. This time around, however, things look as though they are different. What you get in the Dark Vertex Xbox One bundle is as follows:
- A dark purple 1 TB Xbox One S
- Dark purple Xbox One controller
- Dark Vertex set for Fortnite
- The Dark Vertex set looks like it will include the Dark Vertex outfit and accompanying Glider, Pickaxe, and V-Bucks
It’s all themed as dark purple and looks rather good, we must say. Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like the dark purple Xbox One S is Fortnite themed in any way. The Dark Vertex outfit (and its accompanying gear), too, is just a re-coloring of the already existing Vertex skin. The included controller looks as though it has crosshairs in-between its ABXY buttons, however.

Fortnite Xbox One Bundle Skin | How to unlock Vertex
Unfortunately, the only way to get hold of the Dark Vertex outfit will be to buy the Xbox One S bundle. Hopefully, however, the Dark Vertex set will be made available as a standalone purchase for Fortnite at a later date (for the Xbox One version, at least.
While the exclusive Dark Vertex set and the undeniably cool dark purple Xbox One S and controller will all make your friends and opponents jealous, it’s up to you whether or not the likely $299.99 price is worth it.

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.
