Addison Rae Is Coming to Fortnite: First Look, Release Date, and Prices Revealed

Addison Rae Is Coming to Fortnite

Fortnite’s Icon Series has a new star. On August 5, 2026, Fortnite’s official X account confirmed that Addison Rae is joining the game, posting “Served hot. Addison Rae joins Fortnite tomorrow” alongside artwork of the pop star in a retro diner setting. If you’ve been keeping an eye on the Item Shop’s reset schedule, you’ll want to clear a spot in your V-Bucks balance, because her bundle lands today, August 6, 2026.

The timing matters. Addison Rae wasn’t picked as the headliner for Fortnite Festival Season 15, a slot that went to Lil Tecca instead, so this Icon Series drop is her actual entry point into the game. It also isn’t coming out of nowhere. Her pink “Fame Is a Gun” outfit first surfaced in the DC-themed “Hot Bat Summer” trailer, appearing alongside Olivia Rodrigo’s skin, and both of the tracks tied to this collab come off Rae’s Grammy-nominated debut album, Addison.

Below, you’ll find the full first look at both outfits, the exact release time across major regions, and what’s currently known (and not yet confirmed) about pricing.

What is the Addison Rae Icon Series Bundle in Fortnite?

The Icon Series is Fortnite’s line of collaborations with real-world musicians, athletes, and creators, and it’s typically the most expensive tier of cosmetics in the Item Shop. Addison Rae’s addition follows the same format as recent entries: multiple outfit variants, dedicated back blings and pickaxes, a handful of emotes, and Festival Jam Tracks built around her music. It’s a full package rather than a single skin, which is standard for how Epic Games has handled its bigger pop-star collabs.

When Does the Addison Rae Skin Release in Fortnite?

The bundle goes live in the Item Shop at 5:00 PM PT / 8:00 PM ET on August 6, 2026. Since the Item Shop refreshes on a single global timestamp, here’s how that translates across time zones:

RegionLocal timeDate
Pacific Time (PT)5:00 PMAugust 6, 2026
Eastern Time (ET)8:00 PMAugust 6, 2026
British Summer Time (BST)1:00 AMAugust 7, 2026

Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST)10:00 AMAugust 7, 2026
New Zealand Standard Time (NZST)12:00 PMAugust 7, 2026

As of this writing, the drop hadn’t yet appeared in the live Item Shop, so treat the times above as the official rollout window rather than a confirmed live status.

Beyond the two outfits, the bundle brings a full set of matching accessories. The back blings include the Turtle-on-Moon Back Bling, Addison’s Sundae Back Bling, and the Aquamarine the Turtle Back Bling. On the pickaxe side, there’s the two-handed Fame Scepter Pickaxe and the reactive Addison’s Biggest Fan Pickaxe, the latter offering three selectable color styles to match the Famous Addison Rae Outfit’s variants.

The collab also adds two Festival Jam Tracks, “Diet Pepsi” and “Fame Is a Gun,” both pulled from Rae’s debut album. Given how Epic has handled recent musician collabs, additional themed emotes are also expected to land alongside the outfits, though the full emote list hadn’t been detailed by any outlet as of this writing.

Addison Rae Fortnite Skin Price: What We Know So Far

Epic Games hasn’t officially disclosed pricing for the Addison Rae bundle yet, and it wasn’t listed in the live Item Shop at the time of writing. That said, recent Icon Series collabs give a reasonable frame of reference: individual outfits in this tier have generally landed around 1,500 to 2,000 V-Bucks, while back blings, pickaxes, and emotes typically run somewhere between 400 and 800 V-Bucks each when sold separately. Full bundles that combine everything usually carry a modest discount over buying each item individually.

Treat those figures as a pattern from past drops rather than confirmed numbers. Epic could price this collab differently given Addison Rae’s crossover appeal, and the final breakdown will only be locked in once the Item Shop tile actually goes live.

Wrapping Up

Addison Rae’s arrival adds another name to a pop-star lineup that’s been expanding fast inside Fortnite’s Icon Series, and missing out on the Festival Season 15 headliner slot clearly hasn’t slowed the collaboration down. Once the bundle is live, expect the community to move quickly on confirming exact pricing and spotting any additional emotes or wraps that didn’t make it into the pre-release previews.
