Backstroke — common questions
When was Backstroke last in the item shop?
Backstroke was last seen in the Fortnite item shop on 26 June 2026. It has been in the shop on 53 days since 30 October 2017.
How much does Backstroke cost?
We don't have a recorded price for Backstroke. 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 Backstroke?
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.
