When a Gaming Legends skin makes its way into Fortnite, predicting its return to the Item Shop can be tricky. For some iconic characters like Kratos, it's been years since they last appeared, but for Master Chief, the wait is finally over. The legendary protagonist of the Halo franchise, who's been in cryostasis for nearly 1,000 days since his last appearance on June 3, 2022, made a triumphant return on December 23, 2024.
Now, players have the chance to don their Spartan armor and leap from the Battle Bus as Petty Officer John-117, striving for that Victory Royale. But what exactly does the Master Chief Bundle in Fortnite include, and how many V-Bucks will it set you back?

How to Get the Matte Black Master Chief in Fortnite
Epic Games has confirmed via their Fortnite Status account on X (formerly Twitter) that the Matte Black style for the Master Chief outfit is still obtainable. To unlock this sleek variant, simply purchase the Master Chief outfit and then play one match of Fortnite Battle Royale on an Xbox Series X|S. This will grant you access to the Matte Black style.
Previously, it was announced that the Matte Black style would no longer be available for those purchasing the skin after December 2024, but that decision has been reversed, allowing new buyers to unlock this exclusive style.
