Good news! Epic Games has confirmed that the Matte Black style for the Master Chief outfit is still unlockable. To obtain this stylish variant, simply purchase the Master Chief outfit and then play a single match of Fortnite Battle Royale on an Xbox Series X|S.
Previously, there was misinformation suggesting this style was no longer available for post-December 2024 purchases. This has been corrected, so take advantage of this opportunity!
