Kai Cenat Icon Series Release Date
When Does the Kai Cenat Icon Series Come Out in Fortnite?
Kai Cenat teased his collab with Fortnite a few days before the reveal. Then, Fortnite took it to the Vegas Sphere for the big announcement. It has been confirmed that Kai Cenat will be coming to Fortnite on September 12, 2025. Players can expect his skin to drop alongside two emotes, a pickaxe, a Mercedes vehicle, and Lil Cenat, his late hamster.
It is likely that Lil Cenat will be a companion, a new pet-related feature that has been leaked and is expected to become available at the end of August.
How to Get the Kai Cenat Skin in Fortnite
As an Icon Series skin, Kai Cenat will most likely be sold in the Item Shop for 1,500 V-Bucks. However, it is not possible to confirm this, as at the moment, it is unknown how much companions will cost.
Just like the Power Rangers skins, players can expect a tournament to take place a few days before the skin's Item Shop release, giving them a chance to earn it early.
