The Cube Queen skin in Fortnite

The Cube Queen Secret Skin has finally arrived in Fortnite Season 8, but players will need to complete a full set of Cube Queen quests before they can unlock her skin, alternate styles, and matching cosmetics.

After weeks of teasing from Epic Games, the Secret Skin of the Season 8 Battle Pass has finally been unveiled as The Cube Queen, the mysterious character who’s currently floating above The Convergence at the center of the Fortnite map.

Players will be able to unlock The Cube Queen skin, as well as two extra styles and a bunch of matching cosmetics to fill out the Long Live The Queen set, by completing a new set of Cube Queen quests before the season ends.

Below, you’ll find a list of all the Cube Queen quests in Fortnite and the rewards on offer for completing them, as well as detailed instructions to unlock The Cube Queen Skin and her alternate outfit styles.

In order to unlock The Cube Queen skin in Fortnite, you first need to make sure you own the Season 8 Battle Pass. If you don’t already have it, you’ll need to purchase it from the Item Shop or have it gifted to you by a Friend.

Once you’ve got that sorted, it’s time to take on The Cube Queen quests. The Cube Queen Skin is actually the first reward on offer, and to get it you’ll need to survive 5 storm circles while carrying a Sideways weapon.

To get a Sideways weapon, head to a Sideways Zone or Sideways Anomaly (more information on those here) and open one of the purple chests. You’re looking for a Sideways Minigun, a Sideways Rifle, or a Sideways Scythe.

Once you’ve found one, keep it in your inventory while surviving five storm circles (that’s when the circle shrinks) and you’ll unlock The Cube Queen skin! This might take you a couple of matches to complete.
