It’s been a long wait, but Street Fighter has finally returned to the Fortnite Item Shop, and we’ve assessed all of the skins available to rank them from least to most awesome.
Having not appeared in the Item Shop since 2022, confirmation that Street Fighter was returning to Fortnite was welcomed by the community. As a result, expect them to become some of the most popular items available.
If you’re mulling over which skin to splash your precious V-Bucks on, check out our ranking of the best.
Best Fortnite Street Fighter Skins, Ranked
We’ve issued our verdict on the six different Street Fighter characters available below. For this ranking, we’ve included skin styles together with the original style.
6. Guile
Aside from having hair like an old brush, Guile is a rather basic skin in Fortnite, and while it’s an accurate rendition of the Street Fighter character, it doesn’t offer too much to be excited about.
The tank top and cargo pants combo is something you’re likely to see on any military-themed character, and certainly doesn’t stand out as anything spectacular.
He also reminds me of Brick Bazooka from Small Soldiers, though with slightly more hair, and that terrifying smile still gives me nightmares.
5. Blanka
Blanka is a skin that definitely stands out from the crowd, and not just for the colorscheme, but, like Guile, it’s not a particularly special or iconic skin.
While the selectable style, which puts Blanka in a grey suit, is a welcome niche look, it certainly still remains a skin that would’ve been cool in a Battle Pass, but isn’t worth buying separately.
A big, green, stomping machine that isn’t The Incredible Hulk? I’ll pass, thanks.
4. Sakura
Both of Sakura’s selectable styles capture the character brilliantly, but while she is still a decent option to pick up, the fact remains that she’s a rather basic character.
That’s not Fortnite’s fault, as they can only really do so much, and the end result with Sakura is definitely better than Blanka and Guile, but if you had to pick just one Street Fighter skin, this isn’t it.
3. Ryu
If you were to think of a Street Fighter character, Ryu would likely be the first that pops to mind, and his Fortnite skin is an expert recreation of an iconic look.
The barefoot, doju outfit has never looked better on anyone than Ryu, resulting in a classic look that has stood the test of time for generations.
Fortnite brings that full circle with a new audience, and Ryu, one of the first Street Fighter skins released in the game, remains one of the best.
2. Chun-Li
Another one of those from Street Fighter who were introduced to Fortnite first, Chun-Li has remained one of the most popular skins ever since dropping.
The iconic look is another that Fortnite has expertly recreated, finding the balance by keeping it PG while also still following the famous figure of the martial arts supreme.
Expect to see a lot more of Chun-Li in matches now that she’s available in the Item Shop again.
1. Cammy
Who else? There’s a reason Cammy dominates the trends as the Street Fighter character everyone always searches for and Fortnite’s creation is expertly done, even though some tweaks from the usual look had to be made to keep it PG.
The skin-tight suit, flowing locks of hair, and red beret are eye-catching, though the selectable style might actually be better with th switch to a brown crop top.
Either way, Cammy is by far the best Street Fighter character in Fortnite.
