March 2026 is bringing one of the most highly anticipated crossovers in Fortnite history. The Game of Thronescollaboration has officially been confirmed, and with it comes a slew of iconic skins based on beloved characters from Westeros. Here’s everything you need to know about the release date, the skins hitting the Item Shop, and more!
Release Date and Shop Timing
The wait is almost over! The Game of Thrones Fortnite skins are set to drop on March 20, 2026, coinciding with the daily Item Shop refresh at 8 PM ET. This marks the start of an epic crossover that fans of both the game and the show have been eagerly anticipating.
This drop is tied to the Chapter 7, Season 2 of Fortnite, which introduces more collaborative content to keep the battle royale fresh and exciting. Players can expect to see these skins available for purchase right as the refresh happens.
What Skins Are Coming?
While we’re still awaiting official confirmation from Epic Games, the leaks and rumors surrounding the crossover are hard to ignore. Based on multiple sources and data-mining leaks, we expect to see three key characters from Game of Thrones make their way into the Fortnite universe:
-
Jon Snow – The iconic “King in the North,” complete with his Night’s Watch armor and Longclaw sword.
-
Daenerys Targaryen – The Dragon Queen, dressed in her signature attire, potentially accompanied by a dragon-inspired glider.
-
The Night King – The terrifying leader of the White Walkers, with a chilling look to match his frozen army.
These skins will likely be accompanied by matching accessories, including back bling (possibly the Stark shield or House Targaryen’s sigil), and harvesting tools, with Longclaw being the top contender for Jon Snow’s pickaxe. While other characters like Arya Stark are fan favorites, there’s no official confirmation yet.
Pricing and Bundles
Though exact pricing details remain unconfirmed as of now, we can expect the skins to follow Fortnite’s typical pricing structure. Most character skins in past crossovers have been priced at around 1,500 to 2,000 V‑Bucks each. Bundle packs that feature multiple skins and exclusive accessories may also be available for a higher price, potentially offering a discount compared to individual purchases.
It’s likely that the skins will come with a special bundle, which could include unique items like the Dragon-themed Glider or Valyrian Steel harvesting tools, but this is still speculative. Additionally, it’s worth keeping an eye out for special offers or bundles exclusive to certain platforms, such as Xbox Game Pass or PlayStation Plus, which may include bonus cosmetics for subscribers.
Availability
As always, the Game of Thrones skins will be available for purchase in the Fortnite Item Shop. They will also likely appear as a daily or special offer for a limited time. However, given the massive fan base of Game of Thrones, these skins may return periodically, similar to how past collaborations have worked in Fortnite.
Players who can’t afford to buy all the skins immediately may also find some of these skins reappearing later in the season or during special promotional events.
Why This Crossover Is Huge for Fortnite
The Game of Thrones franchise is undeniably one of the most successful and beloved in modern television history, with a massive following that extends far beyond the world of gaming. A crossover between Fortnite and Game of Thronesbrings together two fanbases that span multiple generations, making it one of the most significant collaborations the game has ever seen.
Epic Games has built a reputation for bringing popular pop-culture icons into its battle royale, but this crossover may be one of the most exciting, thanks to Game of Thrones‘ rich characters and lore. Whether you’re wielding Jon Snow’s sword, riding a dragon glider, or confronting the Night King, this is one collaboration that promises to create memorable moments in Fortnite history.
Fan Reactions & Expectations
The reaction from the Fortnite community has been overwhelmingly positive, with players on social media and forums already speculating about potential skins and accessories. Fans are particularly excited about the possibility of seeing dragons incorporated into the gliders or emotes, as well as the chance to wield weapons like Longclaw or Dragonglass as in-game tools.
Many are also hoping for additional content, such as House Targaryen banners, or even an interactive map change inspired by Westeros. Given Fortnite’s track record with map changes and live events, it wouldn’t be a surprise if there’s more to this crossover than just skins.
The Game of Thrones crossover in Fortnite is shaping up to be an epic addition to the game’s already star-studded roster of collaborations. With Game of Thrones’ popularity still holding strong even years after the show’s finale, these skins will undoubtedly be a hit among both Fortnite players and fans of Westeros alike.
