Lucyna “Lucy” Kushinada from Cyberpunk: Edgerunners landed in the Fortnite Item Shop on Saturday, September 19, at 8:00 PM ET (5:00 PM PT), and getting the Cyberpunk Edgerunners skin in Fortnite comes down to two genuinely different paths. Buy her outright for V-Bucks, or earn her free by putting a Trio together and placing well enough in a limited-time cup. Neither route is complicated, but the free one has real regional cutoffs worth understanding before you queue up expecting an easy win.
Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 4 has leaned hard into crossovers this season, Borderlands, Kingdom Hearts, and now a second wave of Cyberpunk content following last year’s Johnny Silverhand and V outfits. Here is exactly how to get Lucy, what the free cup actually requires, and what else ships alongside her.
Cyberpunk Edgerunners cosmetics in Fortnite
Epic and CD Projekt Red revealed the crossover through a trailer and a teaser. Here is what the collab includes, based on reports as of September 19, 2026:
| Item | Type | Price or method |
|---|---|---|
| Lucyna Kushinada | Outfit | 1,500 V-Bucks or cup placement |
| Lucy’s Monowire Pickaxe | Pickaxe | 800 V-Bucks |
| Rebecca Plushie | Back Bling | 400 V-Bucks or cup placement |
| X’d Out Lucy | Emoticon | Cup points |
| Lucy Was Here | Spray | Cup points |
| Rebecca’s Guns | Mythic weapon | In-game loot |
Rebecca’s Guns is a dual-wield weapon that pairs an SMG with an assault rifle. Dataminers found its stats in an unfinished build, so they may change before release.
How to buy Lucy in the Item Shop
The straightforward route. The Lucyna Kushinada outfit costs 1,500 V-Bucks and includes a LEGO-styled variant at no extra cost, plus a second in-game style that pays homage to David Martinez, complete with his signature yellow jacket.
- Launch Fortnite and open the Item Shop tab.
- Find the Cyberpunk: Edgerunners section after the shop resets on September 19, 2026.
- Select Lucyna Kushinada and click Purchase.
- Confirm the 1,500 V-Bucks payment.
A bundle is also available covering Lucy alongside other Edgerunners-themed cosmetics, but reports on its exact price disagree. One source lists it around 2,800 V-Bucks, others estimate somewhere between 2,000 and 2,500. Check the actual number in your shop before buying, since Epic has been known to adjust bundle pricing shortly after a collab goes live.
With the purchase of the Lucy skin specifically, you also receive the Rebecca Plushie Back Bling.
The collab will not stay in the shop indefinitely. Reporting on the exact cutoff varies, one outlet lists a firm departure of September 26 by 5:00 PM PT (8:00 PM ET), while others simply note it leaves at least a week after launch. Either way, do not assume Lucy will still be purchasable a month from now.
How to get Lucy for free in the Cyberpunk: Edgerunners Cup
The cup runs September 19 to 20, 2026, with start times that vary by region. It uses a Trios format in both Battle Royale and Zero Build. Epic also lists an Override Series mobile cup with its own schedule.
Requirements:
- Account level 50 for standard play (level 15 on mobile)
- Two-factor authentication enabled
- Age 13 or older
- A full team of three
Your placement decides the reward. Cutoffs differ by region:
| Region | Placement needed for Lucy |
|---|---|
| Asia, Middle East, Oceania | Top 30 |
| Brazil, NA West | Top 60 |
| NA East/Central | Top 240 |
| Europe | Top 350 |
Importantly, a bigger cutoff does not mean an easier cup. Europe offers 350 spots but has by far the largest player pool, so competition is heavier. Smaller regions hand out fewer spots against far fewer players.
Lower placements still pay out. The X’d Out Lucy Emoticon and Lucy Was Here Spray unlock at set point totals, though sources disagree on the exact numbers (reports range from 5 to 8 points for the emoticon and 20 to 40 for the spray). Verify the thresholds in the Compete tab before you queue.
Tips for the cup:
- Lock in your trio before the window opens, since missing a teammate costs you match time.
- Choose your mode early. Zero Build and Battle Royale use separate leaderboards.
- Track your points during the window. Chasing survival placement often earns more than chasing kills.
Fortnite Zero Build still exists as its own mode, and this guide on where to find Zero Build explains how to reach it if you can’t see it in your playlist.
Cyberpunk Admin Panel code
Epic teased an Admin Panel code, NOCTURNEOP55N1, with the message “Lobby Hack Accepted.” It was inactive at the time of writing. Bookmark the Fortnite Admin Panel codes list to see when it goes live and what it rewards.
Mobile Cup: A Separate, Shorter Event
Epic also runs a dedicated Cyberpunk: Edgerunners Mobile Cup, distinct from the main Trios event. It uses Solo Battle Royale rather than Trios, so there is no teammate requirement, and the session itself is considerably shorter, around 75 minutes in most regions, running just before the main event’s window opens.
The Mobile Cup keeps the same reward structure in miniature: the Outfit and Back Bling go to players finishing inside their region’s placement cutoff, while the smaller cosmetics unlock at lower point thresholds, 5 points for the Emoticon and 20 points for the Spray, reflecting the shorter session length.
Check the Compete tab or Epic’s official competitive rules page for your region’s exact cutoff and session time, since the Mobile Cup’s numbers differ from the main event’s.
What Else Comes With the Collab
Lucy is not the only piece of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners content added to the game. Rebecca’s Guns arrived as a new Mythic weapon, a dual-wield item pairing an SMG with an assault rifle, based on Rebecca’s signature loadout from the anime. The weapon had already been teased when the Override season launched back on August 20, and its full identity was confirmed alongside Lucy’s reveal.
This marks the second wave of Cyberpunk content in Fortnite, following Johnny Silverhand and V’s arrival from the original Cyberpunk 2077 game in December 2024. With a second season of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners in production, it would not be surprising to see further tie-in cosmetics down the line, though nothing beyond this current drop has been confirmed.
Signing Off
Lucy is a genuinely rare case where the free route is realistic rather than a technicality buried behind an impossible point total. If you can put a Trio together and play a reasonably consistent session, the smaller cosmetics are well within reach regardless of skill level, and even the full outfit is achievable in the lower-population regions. If competitive placement is not your thing, 1,500 V-Bucks gets you the same outfit with zero risk.
Whichever route you take, do not wait too long. Between the shop’s limited window and the Cup running as a single-day event, this is not a collab you can circle back to next month.
