Fortnite has confirmed that fan-favorite Street Fighter skins are returning to the Item Shop today, most of which have not been seen in years.
It’s been a long time coming for the return of the collab in Fortnite, with the last being in Chapter Three, Season Two in 2022, but Epic Games confirmed the wait is coming to an end.
Fortnite x Street Fighter Returns
Leaks have pointed towards the return of Street Fighter characters for a while and, in a post on X (formerly Twitter), it was officially announced that the outfits are back in Fortnite today, June 20.
The short teaser video showed Ryu, Chun-Li, Ru, Cammy, Blanka, and Sakura, confirming that all six will be available once again. Check out the video below.
Prices for the skins and bundles have not been confirmed, so it remains to be seen whether the previous price point remains. Previously, each skin cost 1,600 V-Bucks, with additional items available in bundles.
As shown by Fortnite.GG, Street Fighter collab items have not been featured in the Item Shop for over 1,000 days, making them some of the rarest items in the game.
For those who weren’t playing when they last appeared back in 2022, the collab has been unattainable, but that all changes today—with the chance to stack your Locker with them all.
The long-awaited return of the Street Fighter items continues Fortnite’s push to bring back popular collabs to the fold, having tweaked the exclusivity approach last year to ensure that Battle Pass items could be purchased from the Item Shop later down the line.
