Swell Striker — common questions
When was Swell Striker last in the item shop?
Swell Striker 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 Swell Striker cost?
We don't have a recorded price for Swell Striker. 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 Swell Striker?
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 Swell Striker part of?
Swell Striker is part of the Open Water set. Items in a set are usually released together and often return to the shop together, though Epic sometimes rotates them individually.
