The Lion — common questions
When was The Lion last in the item shop?
The Lion was last seen in the Fortnite item shop on 13 April 2023. We've recorded 42 appearances since we began tracking the shop on 5 August 2026.
How much does The Lion cost?
We don't have a recorded price for The Lion. 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 The Lion?
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 The Lion part of?
The Lion is part of the King James set. Items in a set are usually released together and often return to the shop together, though Epic sometimes rotates them individually.
