The Uncommon companion from the Snowball, C-137 Set is finished but not yet live in the Item Shop.

Snowball is a Sidekick tied to the Fortnite crossover with Rick and Morty. It belongs to the Snowball, C-137 Set, carries Uncommon rarity, and is described in-game with the line “His fur is pretty and white.” The companion is built and previewed, but it has not gone live in the game yet.

Quick answer: Snowball is an Uncommon Sidekick in the Snowball, C-137 Set. It is currently unreleased, and no official date or time for its Item Shop debut has been confirmed.


Snowball Sidekick details and rarity

Snowball is the white dog from Rick and Morty, and the cosmetic carries that look directly. The “C-137” in the set name references Rick’s home dimension designation from the show, which Fortnite uses to label the matching collection.

Release status: not yet in the Item Shop

Snowball has been shown ahead of launch, but it is not currently obtainable. There is no confirmed release date, time, or price for the Sidekick at this point, and no pricing in V-Bucks has been attached to it.

Note: Sidekicks normally arrive through the Item Shop. Until Snowball appears there, the only way to confirm its availability is to check the shop directly once it rotates in.


How to know when Snowball is live

Open Fortnite and go to the Item Shop from the main menu. The shop refreshes regularly, so Snowball will appear here once it releases.
Look for the Snowball, C-137 Set listing. A live entry will show the Uncommon rarity tag and a purchase price in V-Bucks, which confirms it is available to buy.
After purchase, check your Locker under Sidekicks. Seeing Snowball equipped there confirms the item is owned and ready to use in matches.

How Snowball fits the Rick and Morty crossovers

Rick and Morty content has appeared in Fortnite across several seasons. Rick Sanchez joined in Chapter 2: Season 7 in 2021 as a Battle Pass reward, and Mecha-Morty followed in the Item Shop during the same season. Later, Queen Summer and Mr. Meeseeks arrived in Chapter 3: Season 4 in 2022, with a Pickle Rick back bling added as a quest reward that same year.

Snowball continues that line of cosmetics as a companion rather than a playable outfit, giving the crossover a small pet themed around the show. It rounds out the existing roster of Rick and Morty items with a familiar character from the series.
