The Fortnite Lil Uzi Vert skin is coming to the Item Shop on Thursday, November 12, 2026. That’s the date Epic has announced for the wearable Outfit. The V-Bucks price and any bundle extras haven’t been revealed yet.
Lil Uzi Vert is already in Battle Royale, which makes this release a little confusing. You can fight him on the island now, but that won’t put his Outfit in your Locker. If you’re after the skin rather than his boss loot, here’s what you need to know before the Shop update.
When is the Fortnite Lil Uzi Vert skin coming out?
Epic’s Treasure Hunters schedule lists November 12 for Lil Uzi Vert. Buggy follows on November 13, then Cap’n Hatsune Miku on November 14. These dates are for Item Shop cosmetics, not new Battle Pass pages.
Epic hasn’t specified a release hour for Lil Uzi Vert. Fortnite’s Shop refreshes on a daily rotation, so an advertised US Shop date can fall on the next calendar day in the UK and elsewhere. Check the countdown in your own Shop rather than relying on a guessed UK midnight time.
How to get the Fortnite Lil Uzi Vert skin
Once the Outfit is listed, the process is straightforward:
- Open Fortnite and go to the Item Shop from the Lobby.
- Find the Lil Uzi Vert offer and open its preview.
- Check the price, selectable styles and exactly which cosmetics the offer includes.
- If you’re happy with what’s included, buy the offer with V-Bucks and equip the Outfit from your Locker.
Don’t assume the outfit includes a pickaxe or Back Bling just because those items might appear in the artwork. Epic hasn’t given a complete list of accessories or announced a bundle at the time of writing. If there’s a separate bundle when the Fortnite Lil Uzi Vert skin arrives, check both offers before spending anything.
How much is the Fortnite Lil Uzi Vert skin?
The price hasn’t been announced as of November 10. There’s no official V-Bucks figure for the standard Outfit or a potential bundle in Epic’s release announcement. Prices for A$AP Rocky or other music collaborations aren’t a reliable guide to what Lil Uzi Vert will cost.
When the Fortnite Lil Uzi Vert skin appears in the Shop, its tile will show the amount you need. If you want to save V-Bucks in advance, it’s better to wait for that figure than budget around somebody else’s estimate.
Does defeating the Lil Uzi Vert boss unlock the Outfit?
No. The boss arrived as part of the November 8 Captain’s Day update. Fighting him is connected to in-match content and quests, including Lil’ SMG and the Lil Uzi Vert Jr. Sprite. None of that is the same as being awarded the playable Outfit.
Our Lil Uzi Vert boss location guide covers the encounter, while the Lil SMG guide explains the weapon. You can complete those activities without owning the Fortnite Lil Uzi Vert skin, and buying the Outfit won’t automatically complete the boss quest.
Can you get Lil Uzi Vert free?
There’s no announced free challenge that awards the standard Item Shop Outfit to everyone. Treasure Hunters has its own chest rewards and Pirate Shop Access system, but don’t assume either is a guaranteed route to this particular skin. The eligible items and rewards need to match the offer shown in-game.
It’s worth keeping the different Lil Uzi items straight. The Lil Uzi Vert Jr. Sprite is a gameplay companion, Lil’ SMG is a weapon, and the Fortnite Lil Uzi Vert skin is the cosmetic you wear. A reward involving one of those names doesn’t automatically unlock the others.
Is Lil Uzi Vert in the Battle Pass?
No. Epic’s announced route is the Item Shop. The Treasure Hunters Battle Pass includes characters such as Ace and Robin from One Piece, but the November 12 Lil Uzi release is listed separately. Buying the Battle Pass isn’t required to purchase his Outfit.
If the character doesn’t appear when you check on November 12, look at the Shop’s remaining countdown and whether it’s already refreshed in your region. The confirmed information is the announced Shop date; an exact hour, price and bundle contents will come from the live listing.
