Fortnite Will Add Countdown Timer to Item Store

A long-overdue addition is around the corner
by Tit Krajnik on April 15, 2024   

In the recent Fortnite update notes, Epic Games revealed major in-game shop improvements for the battle royale game. As confirmed, the shop will have an added feature showing how long a skin will remain available with the next update.

Fortnite has well over 1,000 in-game cosmetic skins, and considering how active Epic Games has been with crossovers and various events that add new skins to the game, that number will soon surpass 2,000. However, many skins are time-limited and only remain available for purchase for a certain time.

Up until now, players were unable to accurately predict how long a Fortnite skin would remain available in the shop and how long they would have to buy it before it was removed. But that’s soon going to change.
 

 

Fortnite Announces A Timer to Its In-Game Shop

As confirmed by Epic Games, Fortnite in-game will soon receive a new feature: a timer that will display how long skin or other cosmetic items remain available. Even though most new skins are typically available for a few days before they’re replaced, nothing accurately shows the time players have left to acquire the skin.

Soon, each item in the Item Shop will have its own timer and countdown, showing when it will be removed from the shop. Still, Epic Games doesn’t plan to add any features that would reveal which items will be featured in the next rotation, keeping the Item Shop exciting and filled with surprises.

When Will the Fortnite Item Store Timer be Added?

It’s unclear when the Item Shop timer will be added to the game, but it’s likely that the feature will be included in the upcoming Fortnite season after Chapter 5, Season 2.

Chapter 5, Season 2, will come to an end on May 24, 2024, so it’s fair to expect the patch with the Item Shop timer to be introduced with the next season's patch. So, assuming there won’t be any major delays, the feature should be introduced to the game in just over a month.
