Item shop history
Arrival of the Empress hasn't appeared in the item shop since we started tracking on 5 Aug 2026.
Epic's public shop feed only exposes the current day, so our archive covers the 1 day since 5 Aug 2026. Appearances before then aren't recorded here.
Arrival of the Empress — common questions
When was Arrival of the Empress last in the item shop?
Arrival of the Empress hasn't appeared in the item shop since we began tracking it on 5 August 2026. Epic's shop feed only exposes the current day, so we can't see whether it appeared before then.
How much does Arrival of the Empress cost?
We don't have a recorded price for Arrival of the Empress. We only know an item's price from days it has appeared in the shop while we were tracking it, and this emote hasn't.
Can you still get Arrival of the Empress?
Most Fortnite cosmetics return to the item shop on rotation, but Epic doesn't publish a schedule and some items — battle pass rewards and promotional items in particular — never come back. There's no reliable way to tell in advance which category any given emote falls into.
What set is Arrival of the Empress part of?
Arrival of the Empress is part of the River Guard set. Items in a set are usually released together and often return to the shop together, though Epic sometimes rotates them individually.
