How to get the T-800 and Sarah Connor skins in Fortnite

The latest licensed characters to be implemented into Fortnite are Sarah Connor and the T-800 from The Terminator series. These characters have become available just shortly after the implementation of The Predator, which you can also acquire right now. Though, The Terminator skins are handled differently in terms of acquiring them in-game. With that in mind, you might be wondering how to get the new Sarah Connor and the T-800 character skins.

In this guide, we’ll show you everything you’ll need to know about obtaining the Sarah Connor and the T-800 skins and their cosmetics in Fortnite.

How to get the T-800 and Sarah Connor skins

Unlike the recent Predator skin, the only way to obtain Sarah Connor and the T-800 cosmetics is to purchase them with V-bucks. Starting on January 21, 2021, the characters have been made available to buy from within Fortnite’s item shop. When you boot up the game, you’ll encounter a new Terminator-themed cutscene to celebrate the characters. These skins are only available for a limited time so act quickly if you want to get your hands on them. There are multiple Terminator bundles ranging from individual skins to Back Bling cosmetics and more.

Remember, V-bucks are the currency used in Fortnite and can be earned by leveling up the Battle Pass, or by purchasing with real money. If you still have V-bucks lying around from earlier in the season or from a previous one, you’ll be able to put them toward the purchase of the new Terminator skins. Otherwise, you’ll have to fork out real cash. Keep in mind, 1,000 V-bucks is equal to around $8.

Below are the various Terminator bundles you can buy.

Future War Bundle — 2,800 V-bucks

  • Sarah Connor — Outfit
  • T-800 Endoskeleton Arm — Back Bling
  • T-800 — Outfit
  • HK Skynet Uplink — Back Bling
  • Combat Knife — Harvesting Tool
  • Techno-Grip Axe — Harvesting Tool
  • Cyberdyne Salute — Emote

This bundle will give you the most bang for your buck and costs 2,800 V-bucks. It comes with everything available as part of the Terminator set, including both skins, Back Bling cosmetics, and Harvesting Tools. Though, if you’re only wanting one individual character, there are other options.

Sarah Connor — 1,800 V-bucks

  • Sarah Connor — Outfit
  • T-800 Endoskeleton Arm — Back Bling
  • Combat Knife — Harvesting Tool

If you just want Sarah Connor, this is the least expensive option for you. It’ll come with Connor herself, a Back Bling, and Harvesting Tool for 1,800 V-bucks.

T-800 — 1,500 V-bucks

  • T-800 — Outfit
  • HK Skynet Uplink — Back Bling

The same goes for the T-800. This one is a little less expensive at 1,500 V-bucks since it only comes with the skin and a Back Bling.

Techno-Grip Axe — 800 V-bucks

  • Techno-Grip Axe — Harvesting Tool

Or if you just want the Techno-Grip Axe Harvesting Tool, this can be yours for 800 V-bucks.

Cyberdyne Salute — 300 V-bucks

  • Cyberdyne Salute — Emote

Finally, you can grab the stand-alone Cyberdyne Salute emote for 300 V-bucks.

As with most skins, these are only available for a limited time, and it’s unclear if they’ll make a reappearance like some skins have in the past. To be safe, it’s best to grab them while you can.

Character with lightsaber in Fortnite.

The latest Fortnite event is a massive Star Wars collaboration, and with it, comes a slew of new character skins, weapons, and quests. With it being a Star Wars collab, players can expect a new set of lightsabers to wield, which can be obtained during battle royale matches.

Where to find lightsabers

Finding the various lightsabers is a little tricky since their locations are random for each match. To find them, you need to visit holograms of either Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, or Darth Maul around the map. All three appear during any given match, but their locations are random.

All mounts in Minecraft Legends and how to get them
Four players stand together in the 4v4 PvP mode of Minecraft Legends.

In yet another genre-mixup following Minecraft Dungeons, Minecraft Legends brings the open-world survival and building game to the RTS genre. Unlike most traditional RTS games, where you control the action from a detached, overhead perspective, this game keeps you in the action by giving you a character to control on the field itself. To keep the action fast-paced, and make sure you can easily control and order your mobs around, giving your character a mount is essential. Just like in the original game that inspired it, there are multiple creatures you can use as mounts, and they all behave and function differently. While the world in Minecraft Legends isn't randomly generated, it can still feel overwhelming trying to find what you're looking for. Here are all the mounts you can ride in Minecraft Legends, what they do, and where to find them.
How to get every mount in Minecraft Legends

There are four different mounts you can tame and ride throughout your quest in Minecraft Legends. These include the horse, bird, beetle, and tiger. All you have to do to ride a new one is find it and press Swap Mount when near it, but finding them is the tricky part. Here's where each of them resides in the world, plus what makes them special.
Where to find the horse
You won't have to go looking for the horse since you begin the game with one. This is the classic mount and is made for getting you around the map much faster than on foot. The horse's special ability is being able to sprint indefinitely at a high speed.
Where to find the bird
A bird may not sound like a creature you could ride, and yet here we are. These rainbow-colored birds are quite small, but not hard to find in the Jagged Peaks biome. Keep an eye on your map for a clue as to when you're close to one since they will automatically be marked for you. Once you've mounted a bird, you will be able to jump higher than any other mount, plus slowly glide from any height by holding the jump button.
Where to find the beetle
Perhaps an even stranger choice for a mount, the beetle is much bigger than their real-life counterparts. These insects are native to the Jungle biomes, so venture into the trees to snag one. The Beetle has two special attributes, the first it shares with the bird which is being able to glide by holding jump in the air. The beetle's unique skill is that it can climb up any surface. So, while slow, it is very versatile and strategic.
Where to find the tiger
Now we're talking! If you want to play He-Man and ride your very own tiger, get yourself on a safari to the Dry Savanna biome to track one down. The tiger has the most simple ability, which is that it is simply the fastest mount you can get. However, this speed does come with a downside. Unlike the Horse, the Tiger doesn't have infinite stamina, so you will need to slow down eventually.
