Dark Shard — common questions
When was Dark Shard last in the item shop?
Dark Shard was last seen in the Fortnite item shop on 22 April 2026. We've recorded 28 appearances since we began tracking the shop on 5 August 2026.
How much does Dark Shard cost?
We don't have a recorded price for Dark Shard. 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 Dark Shard?
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 Dark Shard part of?
Dark Shard is part of the Western Wilds set. Items in a set are usually released together and often return to the shop together, though Epic sometimes rotates them individually.
How many styles does Dark Shard have?
