How to Get the Cody Rhodes Skin in Fortnite?
Right now, players can purchase the Cody Rhodes skin directly from the Fortnite Item Shop. The skin is available for 1,500 V-Bucks. For those looking to expand their collection, there’s also a special WWE bundle priced at 2,800 V-Bucks. This bundle features not only the Cody Rhodes attire but also iconic wrestler The Undertaker, as well as a range of themed items. These comprise the Nightmare Mantle Back Bling, Cody’s Cutlass Pickaxe, an American Nightmare weapon wrap, and the “WOOOAAHH!” emote, which captures Cody’s in-ring signature energy.
All of these also come as singles. Back Blings are $300 V-Bucks, Pickaxes are priced at $800 V-Bucks, emotes are $300 V-Bucks, and the weapon wrap is $500 V-Bucks. These cosmetics won’t be sticking around in the Item Shop much longer than that, as they’ll only stay until April 25, 2025, so this one is a time-limited release that WWE fans and Fortnite followers won’t be able to miss.
All that players have to do is open up Fortnite, navigate to the Item Shop from the home menu, scroll over to locate the WWE collaboration section, and click the Cody Rhodes skin or pack. When purchased, the skin and any other cosmetics will be delivered to the player’s locker for equipping and use within the game.
