All Crash Bandicoot Fortnite Cosmetic Items and Potential Prices
According to dataminers, the Crash Bandicoot crossover will feature a complete set of cosmetic items. The skin includes both a modern appearance and a retro polygon style based on the character’s classic PlayStation design.
Spyro the Dragon will also be available as a Sidekick that can accompany players during matches. Here is every Crash Bandicoot Fortnite cosmetic revealed so far, along with its potential pricing:
- Crash Bandicoot Skin: 1,500 V-Bucks
- Retro Crash Bandicoot Style: Included with the skin
- Aku Aku Back Bling: 500 V-Bucks
- Crash Bandicoot Pickaxe: 800 V-Bucks
- Crash Bandicoot Emote: 500 V-Bucks
- Crash Bandicoot Weapon Wrap: 500 V-Bucks
- Spyro the Dragon Sidekick: Around 1,200–1,500 V-Bucks
- Crash Bandicoot Bundle: Around 2,400–2,800 V-Bucks (Estimated)
Epic Games does not typically confirm cosmetic prices until they appear in the Item Shop. However, based on similar Chapter 7 Season 4 collaborations, the Crash Bandicoot skin will likely cost between 1,500 and 1,800 V-Bucks.
The complete bundle should also offer a considerable discount compared to purchasing each item separately. Spyro could be sold separately because Sidekicks have their own cosmetic category, although Epic Games has not revealed the final bundle configuration yet.
How to Get Crash Bandicoot in Fortnite
Players can get Crash Bandicoot in Fortnite by purchasing his skin or complete bundle from the Item Shop beginning on August 28 at 5 PM PT. Once purchased, the character can be equipped from the Locker and used in Battle Royale, Reload and other supported game modes.
Unlike Battle Pass cosmetics, Crash Bandicoot will not need to be unlocked by completing challenges or gaining levels. However, because Item Shop collaborations are only available for a limited time, players should purchase the skin before it leaves the store.
