With daily shop rotations, items in the Fortnite store are not there to stay. Fortunately for gamers, following an update earlier this year, you can now see exactly how much longer an item will be available.

If you’ve been waiting for Lucien West to return to the store, there’s good news—but you need to act fast.

The only way of obtaining the Lucien West skin in Fortnite is to purchase it with V-Bucks. If you’re prepared to splash out for it, there are two options available.

The Lucien West Bundle costs 1,700 V-Bucks and provides you with the skin alongside the Westward Star Pickaxe, High Stakes Protector Wrap, Lil Louie Back Bling, and a loading screen. Alternatively, the Lucien West outfit can be purchased separately for 1,200 V-Bucks and also includes the Lil Louie Back Bling.

You only have a limited time to nab the skin, though, as the Lucien West skin will be removed from the item shop on July 25 at 6:59pm CT (00:59am BST on July 26). It’s unknown when the skin or the bundle will return to the store.

The Lucien West skin first arrived in Fortnite on Jan. 29, 2023, and has appeared in the store regularly since. But its last appearance before returning in July 2024 was on Dec. 3, 2023.
