Gamers who don't yet own the Ninja skin in Fortnite but would like to know more information about it, such as its original release date, how much it costs, and how long it'll be available, have come to the right place, as this guide will give them this exact information.
How to Get the Ninja Skin in Fortnite
The Ninja skin was first released back in January 2020, over five years ago. Since then, it has been in the shop dozens of times, but now it's back with a brand-new style, the Blitz Boss Ninja style.
The Ninja skin is available in the Fortnite Item Shop for 1,500 V-Bucks. It includes a LEGO style for the skin and the Ninja's Edge back bling. The Dual Katanas pickaxe is part of this set and can be purchased separately for 800 V-Bucks. Lastly, players can also get the Ninja Style emote, which mimicks the streamer's iconic dance, for 300 V-Bucks.
Fans who want to get every item in the Ninja set can purchase the entire bundle for 2,000 V-Bucks - saving them a total of 600 V-Bucks. Here is everything in the Ninja bundle in Fortnite:
- Ninja skin
- Ninja LEGO skin
- Ninja's Edge back bling
- Dual Katanas pickaxe
- Ninja style emote
With the upcoming Ninja Blitz Boss coming to Fortnite's Blitz game mode, Epic Games rewarded players who own or purchase the Ninja skin with an additional style: the Blitz Boss style, which is completely free.
Players who already own the Ninja skin will also receive the Blitz Boss style for free. It will have been automatically added to their account on August 1, so they can wear it by hovering over the Ninja skin in their lockers, selecting the Edit style option, and then the style on the far right.
For players interested in knowing more about the Ninja Blitz Boss character, they can catch him as a Blitz game mode boss character starting August 2 at 4 PM ET.
When Is Ninja Leaving the Item Shop?
Ninja will be available in the Fortnite Item Shop until Saturday, August 9 at 8 PM ET. So, it'll remain in the shop for a week before it disappears once again. Gamers have this time to decide if they want to purchase the Ninja skin or any other item in its cosmetic set.
