Epic Games has confirmed the Pickle Rick skin as part of Wave 3 of the Fortnite and Rick and Morty collaboration. You can unlock it without spending V-Bucks by competing in the upcoming Pickle Rick Cup.
If you place high enough in the tournament standings, you earn the skin as a free reward. This limited-time event gives you a direct path to add Pickle Rick to your locker through competitive play.
