Fortnite fans can now buy and download new season 5 skins from the item shop today.
Epic Games announced the update on Twitter, revealing that a new Sun Tan Specialist could be added to your outfit collection for V-Bucks.
The Baywatch-style skin leaked with a bunch of other season 5 designs earlier this week.
A lot of these other outfits have yet to make it to the Fortnite item shop, but fans can expect a steady stream of new content over the coming weeks.
The first of these new designs included the Viking Magnus skin, which was available to buy close to the start of season 5.

This was followed by the legendary Chomp Snr skin, which was available to buy from the item shop last weekend.
Luckily for fans though, this new design won’t cost as much as those other skins.
Due to it being ranked in the highest rarity category, the Chomp Snr and Magnus outfits cost a hefty 2,000 V-Bucks each.
The Sun Tan Specialist, meanwhile, is an epic skin, meaning that it retails for 1,500 V-Bucks, half the price of the others mentioned.
It comes with Safety Ring back bling and hasn’t been featured during season 5 in the item shop before.
But while the new beach-ready look is sure to prove popular with those hoping to stock up on new season 5 skins, there’s another item that could be even more popular.
That’s because fans can also snap up the Rescue Paddle Pickaxe, which completes the new set.
The Rescue Paddle includes everything you would expect from such a name and costs 800 V-Bucks to buy.
These new Fortnite season 5 skins and gear will be available over the next 24hrs before being replaced by more content from Epic Games.
As the development team notes whenever selling cosmetic items, this new gear will not provide any kind of bonus during a Battle Royale game.
They are purely cosmetic, so fans shouldn’t worry about spending cash in Fortnite unless they want to earn or buy new gear for their character.
Unlike some of the Viking gear before it, more fishy gear will be harder to find as part of the official season 5 battle pass.
The Tier 100 items will be the ones everyone will want to get their hands on, although that will take some dedication when it comes to completing weekly challenges.
The challenges are separated into hard and regular tiers of difficulty.
The hard difficulty Fortnite challenges net players ten Battle Stars, while the regular tasks reward fans with five Battle Stars.
Unlocking Battle Stars levels up your Battle Pass, which is how you unlock all the rewards on offer.
Season 5 also features bonus challenges that will net players specific items. The Road Trip challenges are similar to Blockbuster challenges from Season 4.
The Road Trip tier rewards players with special loading screens for fully completing all weekly challenges. These loading screens feature hidden Battle Star clues.
Fortnite Battle Royale is a free downloadable game currently available on PC, Xbox One, PS4, Nintendo Switch, Mac and Mobile iOS.
