With all of the Star Wars celebrations currently going on in Fortnite, it’s no surprise that one of the most famous antagonists of the historic franchise gets a skin. However, obtaining the skin isn’t a particularly speedy process…
In this guide, we’ll tell you how to get the new General Grievous skin and how to do it as fast as possible.

The General Grievous skin is part of the paid version of Chapter 6: Mini Season 1’s Galactic Battle Pass. It’s not available on the Free rewards, so you’ll have to pay for the premium pass, which costs 1000 V-Bucks. You can find General Grievous as the final reward on page 1 of the Grievous Rewards.

You need a total of 14 Levels to reach the skin and claim all of the page 1 Grievous Rewards in the battle pass. As such, all you can really do to get the skin at this point is to just grind for XP to level up!
Worth noting, you can also get the Warlord Grievous variant at the end of page 2 of the Grievous Rewards. That one requires a total of 28 Levels, so it’s a bit of extra grinding…
You can get XP naturally by just playing Fortnite in any mode. Battle Royale, LEGO Fortnite, Save the World, or even Creative. All of these provide XP to you. We personally recommend first trying to gain XP by simply completing quests in Battle Royale, as that’s a quick way to get levels. If you haven’t done so yet, the Star Wars Story Quests are a good place to start.
Alternatively, you can also find and use XP Maps made by other players. However, they can be unreliable, and results vary pretty often as the XP exploits used by these maps get patched out. Still, it’s an option if you do find a reliable map!
Nonetheless, that’s all you need to do to get the General Grievous skin in Fortnite. It’s ultimately a grind, you will get the 14 levels fairly quickly if you just play the game and complete quests.
