How to Get the John Cena Skin in Fortnite
Yes, John Cena will soon have a skin available inFortnite, but players will only have only one way to get their hands on it, as well as the other themed cosmetics.
As of the time of writing, theJohn Cena Outfit can only be purchased via theFortniteItem Shop starting Jul 05, 2025, at 8 PM ET / 5 PM PT. The Outfit pack will come with the Entrance Gear and Ring Gear Styles (shown in the featured image of this guide).
The WWE Championship Title Back Bling is also included with the John Cena outfit, but the Five Digit Slapper Pickaxe and the U Can’t C Me Emote will be part of the set, which typically costs more than the base skin.
How Much is the John Cena Skin?
There’s no information from Epic Games just yet on how much the new outfit will cost once it hits the stores, but it’ll probably fall in the1800-2000 V-Buck range.
Right now,Fortniteplayerscan purchase V-Bucks with real-world money. 1000 V-Bucks go for $7.99, and 2800 V-Bucks go for $19.99, so expect to spend around $18 for the John Cena skin –it all depends on how many V-Bucks players already have and how much they’re willing to purchase.
Will the John Cena Skin Ever Be Free?
As far as we know, there are no plans to release the John Cena outfit for free, either as part of a questline or event. The skin is being added toFortniteto celebrate Epic Games' Epic SummerSlam event, so there’s a chance that the skin could go away once the event is over, which could be the end of the summertime.
