The latest licensed characters to be implemented into Fortnite are Sarah Connor and the T-800 from The Terminator series. These characters have become available just shortly after the implementation of The Predator, which you can also acquire right now. Though, The Terminator skins are handled differently in terms of acquiring them in-game. With that in mind, you might be wondering how to get the new Sarah Connor and the T-800 character skins.
In this guide, we’ll show you everything you’ll need to know about obtaining the Sarah Connor and the T-800 skins and their cosmetics in Fortnite.

How to get the T-800 and Sarah Connor skins
Unlike the recent Predator skin, the only way to obtain Sarah Connor and the T-800 cosmetics is to purchase them with V-bucks. Starting on January 21, 2021, the characters have been made available to buy from within Fortnite’s item shop. When you boot up the game, you’ll encounter a new Terminator-themed cutscene to celebrate the characters. These skins are only available for a limited time so act quickly if you want to get your hands on them. There are multiple Terminator bundles ranging from individual skins to Back Bling cosmetics and more.
Remember, V-bucks are the currency used in Fortnite and can be earned by leveling up the Battle Pass, or by purchasing with real money. If you still have V-bucks lying around from earlier in the season or from a previous one, you’ll be able to put them toward the purchase of the new Terminator skins. Otherwise, you’ll have to fork out real cash. Keep in mind, 1,000 V-bucks is equal to around $8.
Below are the various Terminator bundles you can buy.
Future War Bundle — 2,800 V-bucks
- Sarah Connor — Outfit
- T-800 Endoskeleton Arm — Back Bling
- T-800 — Outfit
- HK Skynet Uplink — Back Bling
- Combat Knife — Harvesting Tool
- Techno-Grip Axe — Harvesting Tool
- Cyberdyne Salute — Emote
This bundle will give you the most bang for your buck and costs 2,800 V-bucks. It comes with everything available as part of the Terminator set, including both skins, Back Bling cosmetics, and Harvesting Tools. Though, if you’re only wanting one individual character, there are other options.
Sarah Connor — 1,800 V-bucks
- Sarah Connor — Outfit
- T-800 Endoskeleton Arm — Back Bling
- Combat Knife — Harvesting Tool
If you just want Sarah Connor, this is the least expensive option for you. It’ll come with Connor herself, a Back Bling, and Harvesting Tool for 1,800 V-bucks.
T-800 — 1,500 V-bucks
- T-800 — Outfit
- HK Skynet Uplink — Back Bling
The same goes for the T-800. This one is a little less expensive at 1,500 V-bucks since it only comes with the skin and a Back Bling.
Techno-Grip Axe — 800 V-bucks
- Techno-Grip Axe — Harvesting Tool
Or if you just want the Techno-Grip Axe Harvesting Tool, this can be yours for 800 V-bucks.
Cyberdyne Salute — 300 V-bucks
- Cyberdyne Salute — Emote
Finally, you can grab the stand-alone Cyberdyne Salute emote for 300 V-bucks.
As with most skins, these are only available for a limited time, and it’s unclear if they’ll make a reappearance like some skins have in the past. To be safe, it’s best to grab them while you can.
