The Dave the Diver skin joins Fortnite’s Gaming Legends series, bringing MintRocket’s deep-sea protagonist into the battle royale. Epic Games is offering the outfit at no extra charge to anyone who buys the source game on the Epic Games Store, so you can pick up both the cosmetic and the game in one move.

Quick answer: Buy Dave the Diver (or the Dave the Diver – In The Jungle Content Pack) on the Epic Games Store. The Dave the Diver skin and Dave’s Oxygen Tank back bling then land in your Fortnite locker on June 18, 2026.


What the free bundle includes

Buying the game through the Epic Games Store Loyalty Promotion grants two cosmetics inside Fortnite. There is no separate code to enter and no in-game currency to spend.

Claim the Dave the Diver skin for free on the Epic Games Store

Open the Epic Games Store through the desktop app or in a browser. Sign in to the same account you use for Fortnite so the cosmetics reach the right locker.
Search for Dave the Diver, or find it on the store’s home page where the promotion is featured. Open the official Dave the Diver store page.
Purchase Dave the Diver for $19.99. You can instead buy the Dave the Diver – In The Jungle Content Pack, which releases June 18, 2026, and also qualifies for the free cosmetics.
Launch Fortnite. You’ll see a notification for the Dave the Diver skin and Dave’s Oxygen Tank back bling once the items are tied to your account.

When the cosmetics appear and how to confirm it worked

The purchase does not unlock the skin instantly. Even after you buy the game, the cosmetics are delivered on June 18, 2026. After that date, open your Fortnite locker and look for the Dave the Diver outfit and the Dave’s Oxygen Tank back bling under your owned items. If both show up and can be equipped, the promotion has applied correctly.

Note: Make sure the Epic account you bought the game on is the same one linked to Fortnite. A mismatched account is the usual reason the items don’t show up.


Buying the skin in the Fortnite Item Shop instead

If you’d rather not pick up the game, the Dave the Diver skin will be sold directly in the Fortnite Item Shop starting June 25, 2026, at 8 PM ET. That route lets you buy the cosmetic on its own, while the Epic Games Store offer remains the way to get the outfit and back bling bundled with the game itself.
