Fortnite is one of the most popular battle royals in the market right now. Developed by Epic Games, the game has maintained more than a million players each month and has been ruling the hearts of gamers ever since it was launched in 2017. What makes Fortnite truly exciting is the collaborations with various pop culture media, bringing some of the iconic items into the game.
Many of these items have varying degrees of rarity, appearing and disappearing from the shop at random. One of the rarest items in the game was the Renegade Raider outfit from Season 1, but a new item has surpassed it in rarity. Let’s find out what it is.
Renegade Raider is one of the rare outfits that appear in the Fortnite shop every now and then, you might be wondering “If the outfit is rare, how is it appearing in the shop so frequently?”. While the outfit is featured in the shop, for players to actually buy the outfit, they have to have over 1,500,000 XP in the game.
Renegade Raider has been in the game since the game was launched back in 2017. Although the outfit is not that appealing, fans of the game buy it as a memory of what Fortnite was like when it was released more than 8 years ago.
Pigskin is this other item in the game that has taken the spot from Renegade Raider for being the rarest item. It is the first toy in Fortnite that was introduced in the shop for free back in Season 7 as part of the Fourth Down Set which debuted NFL (National Football League) items in the shop.

Pigskin was available in the shop for only one day, appearing on February 3, 2019. It was removed from the game a day later, but what makes its rarity even greater, is that the item is a toy, a cosmetic that has been discontinued.

Toys are just interactive cosmetics in the game, that players can obtain from the Battle Pass or buy in the Item Shop. Epic Games decided to stop releasing new toys in the game, with the last toys being released in season 7 of chapter 2.

Fans of the game are speculating that toys were discontinued due to the complexity of the game’s coding. Unlike standard cosmetics, toys are interactive and allow players to throw and collide with them, which could have presented technical challenges for the developers, especially with frequent game updates and evolving mechanics.
With no indication that toys will make a return to the game again, Pigskin stands as a relic of Fortnite’s past, much like the Renegade Raider outfit. Pigskin has remained absent for over six years, cementing its status as one of the rarest items in the game.
As Fortnite continues to evolve with new collaborations and content, longtime players and fans of the game will always keep an eye out, hoping for new toys and the return of these rare and nostalgic items.
