John Cena will be released to Fortnite Item Shop in two days

The 16-time champion will be released to Fortnite Battle Royale as part of Epic SummerSlam. This event is about collaboration with popular wrestlers, and besides Fortnite, Epic Games will release wrestling-themed cosmetic items in Rocket League and Fall Guys as well.

John Cena will be released into the Fortnite Item Shop at 8 pm Eastern Time on Thursday, July 28. The new collaboration outfit will be released at the Item Shop reset and fans will be able to purchase it from there.

To get the John Cena skin, players simply need to log in to Fortnite on Thursday to grab it as soon as possible. Considering that it was never released before, it will most likely stay in the Item Shop for at least a week. So, fans will have plenty of time to obtain it.

Unfortunately, Epic Games hasn't released any information regarding its price. However, we expect it to be an Icon Series skin and cost 1,500 V-Bucks. Most of the Icon Series skins have this price, which is why John Cena's will most likely follow suit.

In addition to the outfit, Epic Games will release the Five Digit Slapper pickaxe and the U Can't C Me emote. Considering that the emote has Cena's intro music, it could be very popular.

The pickaxe and the emote will be sold separately, but may also be included in a bundle with the outfit.

The 45-year-old wrestler has been popular for more than two decades. Besides wrestling, he's also starred in a few movies, including F9 and The Suicide Squad. Considering how popular Cena is and that he has more than 30 million followers on Instagram and Twitter combined, his Fortnite items will most likely gain huge popularity as well.
