Brute Force — common questions
When was Brute Force last in the item shop?
Brute Force was last seen in the Fortnite item shop on 27 June 2024. We've recorded 7 appearances since we began tracking the shop on 5 August 2026.
How much does Brute Force cost?
We don't have a recorded price for Brute Force. We only know an item's price from days it has appeared in the shop while we were tracking it, and this pickaxe hasn't.
Can you still get Brute Force?
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 pickaxe falls into.
What set is Brute Force part of?
Brute Force is part of the Tech Ops set. Items in a set are usually released together and often return to the shop together, though Epic sometimes rotates them individually.
