The Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3 Battle Pass, themed around Runners, carries a total of eight new outfits along with a set of bonus cosmetics that only appear during the season’s launch week. The pass mixes original characters, remixed classics like PJ and Slone, and a John Wick crossover drawn in a comic-style art treatment.
Quick answer: Buy the Battle Pass for 800 V-Bucks or get it through a Fortnite Crew subscription, then earn XP across Fortnite experiences to unlock its rewards. The eight bonus items are claimed during launch week, which begins June 6, 2026.
Runners season release date and launch week
Chapter 7 Season 3 goes live on Saturday, June 6, 2026. It arrives the day after the Shattered live event on June 5, which closes out Chapter 7 Season 2. Once Shattered ends, servers go down for roughly half a day of maintenance before the new season opens.
An exact launch time has not been confirmed, though the season is expected to open early in the morning on the 6th. After servers return, the Battle Pass unlocks automatically for anyone who owns it, and reward progression begins from there.
How to get the Runners Battle Pass
The Battle Pass costs 800 V-Bucks. That price has applied to the Battle Royale Battle Pass since March 19, 2026. You can also access it through a Fortnite Crew subscription, which includes the current season’s pass as part of the membership.
You’ll know the pass is active when the Battle Pass tab shows your owned status and reward tiers become claimable as you level up.
All Chapter 7 Season 3 Battle Pass skins
The Runners pass spreads across espionage, high-speed action, summer styling, and comic-book looks. Here is the full eight-skin lineup with their known tier placements.
| Skin | Type / Note |
|---|---|
| The Guardian | Original outfit |
| Heatwave PJ | Summer-themed remix of PJ |
| Vanguard Slone | Returning Doctor Slone, armored design |
| Dylan | Tier 4 |
| Cluster | Tier 5 |
| John Wick – Pen & Ink | Cel-shaded John Wick crossover |
| The Voidblade | Tier 7 |
| Wolfe | Tier 8 |
John Wick – Pen & Ink is the headline collaboration. Rather than re-releasing the old outfit, it uses an ink-drawn comic art style. Vanguard Slone marks the return of a character tied to several major Fortnite story moments, which points to a larger narrative role this season.
TheBurntPeanut crossover
The pass also includes a crossover with Twitch streamer TheBurntPeanut. It is not yet clear whether the cosmetic is a sidekick or a sprite. Sprites are returning as a mechanic in Chapter 7 Season 3, so the cosmetic could be tied to that system, though recent passes have leaned on sidekick companions.
Launch week bonus rewards
Buying the Battle Pass during the season’s opening week unlocks a separate set of eight bonus cosmetics. These items are available starting June 6 and are tied to the launch window rather than the standard reward track.
| Bonus Reward | Type |
|---|---|
| Gold Huntress Dylan | Skin |
| Venomous Chainsaw | Pickaxe |
| Gilded Cherubs Holster | Back Bling |
| Marbled Speedboat | Glider |
| John Wick and Dog | Skin + Sidekick |
| Dark Cubic Sneakers | Kicks |
| John Wick Gunglider | Glider |
| Blade of the Void | Pickaxe |
To claim them, own the Battle Pass during launch week and play through the season as normal. The items appear in your locker once unlocked, so the simplest confirmation is checking that each bonus cosmetic shows as owned in the locker after you progress.
Between the eight pass skins, the John Wick crossover, the TheBurntPeanut companion, and the launch-week bonus set, the Runners Battle Pass is one of the more varied lineups Fortnite has shipped in a single season. Securing the pass early is the only way to grab the launch-week bonuses before that window closes.
