Though it may feel like Fortnite is in a lull as we eagerly anticipate the next season, ignore the game at your peril because you may miss out on some highly-desired items.

Shop rotations in Fortnite happen every day, introducing new items to the game and bringing back some fan favorites you may have forgotten about—and there are two emotes in particular worth picking up.

After a lengthy absence, Bim, Boom and The Flow returned to the Fortnite item shop on Aug. 2. Neither is available for long, so be sure to dive into the game to pick them up if you don’t want to miss out.

Bim, Bam, Boom is available for 500 V-Bucks until Aug. 5 at 18:59 CT (00:59 BST), while The Flow is available for the same price until the same date. It’s unclear when either item will return to the store following this date.

First introduced in August 2021, Bim, Bam, Boom has regularly appeared in the shop, but the Aug. 2 drop marks the first time it features in 2024, with its last appearance coming in November last year.

Meanwhile, The Flow is much rarer, having only been featured 20 times in the shop since being introduced in October 2020. It last appeared in November 2023, one of only three appearances in the year.

Becaise the items are available for a few days, it gives you time to consider whether you want to splash out or earn V-Bucks from the current battle pass before the current season comes to an end in a few weeks.
