Epic Games is bringing wrestler-turned-actor John Cena into the world of Fortnite, making him the latest famous face to grace the Fortnite Item Shop with a special skin.
Cena’s famous “you can’t see me” catchphrase has prompted an awful lot of jokes and memes over the years, and Epic has felt the need to clarify that, “No, the Outfit doesn’t actually have an invisibility feature” in the game.
There are some matching accessories, though, including the WWE Championship Title Back Bling (which is included with the Outfit), as well as the open-hand Five Digit Slapper Pickaxe and the U Can’t C Me Emote (which are sold separately or as part of a set).
So, when can you get your hands on the John Cena Fortnite skin, and how do you go about getting it? Keep on reading and we’ll explain all.
How to get the John Cena Fortnite skin
The only way to get the John Cena Fortnite skin is to buy it from the Fortnite Item Shop.
As far as we know, there will be no way to earn the John Cena outfit through gameplay or battle pass progression — you’ll just have to buy it from the shop.
