Everything you need to know about the Fortnite Ariana Grande skin

The Rift Tour in Fortnite will begin on August 6th and stay until August 8th. However, the Ariana Grande skin will be released in the game on August 4, 2021, when the Item Shop resets. It will be released at 5 PM PT / 8 PM ET / 1 AM BST (August 5, 2021).

Since the Fortnite Ariana Grande skin is appearing as part of the Icon Series, performing an in-game concert like Marshmello and Travis Scott, it is expected that it will receive in-game cosmetics as well, apart from the skin.

The Ariana Grande skin in Fortnite will come in various styles. Apart from the style revealed, which sports silver hair, the community will also see a style that sports Grande's natural dark brown hair. However, all variants of the skin will have her iconic high ponytail, which has become one of her style statements over the years.

As for the price of the skin, it is expected that, in keeping with the rest of the skins that have appeared as part of the Fortnite Icon Series, it will be priced at 1500 V-Bucks.

Are the icon skins gonna stay for a while? Ariana is gonna be an icon skin so it would make sense if they stayed right?

There is still some doubt regarding whether the Fortnite Ariana Grande skin will be available in the game beyond the Rift Tour. However, without confirmation on how long the skin will remain in the Item Shop beyond the event and whether it will reappear any time soon, it's best not to get one's hopes up.

Fortnite Chapter 2 - Season 7 is a gift that keeps on giving. But it will come to an end on September 12, 2021, according to the information revealed by popular dataminer, HYPEX.
