Ion — common questions
When was Ion last in the item shop?
Ion was last seen in the Fortnite item shop on 12 May 2025. We've recorded 15 appearances since we began tracking the shop on 5 August 2026.
How much does Ion cost?
We don't have a recorded price for Ion. We only know an item's price from days it has appeared in the shop while we were tracking it, and this glider hasn't.
Can you still get Ion?
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 glider falls into.
What set is Ion part of?
Ion is part of the Total Control set. Items in a set are usually released together and often return to the shop together, though Epic sometimes rotates them individually.
