The legendary Crystal Lake slasher has landed in Fortnite during the Fortnitemares 2025 Halloween celebration, and players have a few different methods to acquire this frightening skin in their locker. Regardless of whether you’re looking to compete for early access for free or buy the complete package at launch, this full guide explains everything you need to know about getting the Jason Voorhees skin.

The Item Shop refreshes at the same moment around the world, with times adjusted for each region.
