How to get the Naomi Osaka Fortnite skin for free in Chapter 3 

The Fortnite Icon Series is growing yet again. Joining LeBron James, Neymar, Jr., Harry Kane and others will be tennis star Naomi Osaka. The tennis champion will be receiving outfits and other cosmetics in the Item Shop on March 3.

The skin(s) will likely cost 1,500 V-Bucks, with other cosmetics ranging from 800 to 1,200 V-Bucks. A bundle will be available to save players a bit of money on the cosmetics, but it will be quite expensive, in all probability.

However, like many other Icon Series skins, there will be a way to unlock it for free and get it earlier than everyone else. Here's how to do just that.

Unlocking the new Naomi Osaka Fortnite skin early and for free

Prior to the tennis star landing in the Item Shop, players can participate in the Naomi Osaka Cup, which will take place from tomorrow, March 2. Players will have the chance to unlock the Naomi Osaka Outfit, Dark Priestess Naomi Outfit, Royale Racket Pickaxe/Back Bling, and Portalforger Paddle Pickaxe/Back Bling.

This cup will function exactly like many other cups, though it has been announced that it will be a Solos cup. Placement will matter and winning will reward players with 30 total points.

The following placements will earn points:

• 2nd: 25 Points
• 3rd: 22 Points
• 4th: 20 Points
• 5th: 19 Points
• 6th: 17 Points
• 7th: 16 Points
• 8th: 15 Points
• 9th: 14 Points
• 10th: 13 Points

The top percentage of players in each region will unlock the outfits early. All players who earn a total of eight points will unlock the Forbidden Ace spray.
