The Optimus Prime skin in Fortnite requires you to purchase the Chapter 4 Season 3 Battle Pass. The price of the Battle Pass hasn't changed and still costs 950 V-Bucks, which comes to just under $8.

The Transformers character is a Tier 100 skin, meaning that you'll have to reach Level 94 to be able to unlock him. It costs nine Battle Stars, which can be obtained by leveling up. However, the catch is you won't be able to unlock the character unless the rest of the page has been claimed.

It is also possible to purchase Battle Pass levels in Fortnite Battle Royale. Each level costs 150 V-Bucks, so you will need more than 14,000 V-Bucks to unlock this skin on the first day of the season. Unless you want Optimus Prime right away, this is not a great deal.

Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3 will have many quests that you can complete to level up. Additionally, you may also check out our guide on how to enter Fortnite bot lobbies.
