The Grand Line has officially crashed into Fortnite. The Treasure Hunters mini-season went live on November 1 with the Straw Hat Pirates, Devil Fruit powers, and a brand-new 80-player pirate island, and Monkey D. Luffy is the headliner everyone wants. I’ve dug through Epic’s official announcement, the current Item Shop rotation, and every One Piece quest in the game, so this guide covers exactly how to get the Luffy skin in Fortnite, what it costs, which One Piece rewards are actually free, and the December deadline you can’t afford to miss.
In a hurry? Here’s the short version: buy the Monkey D. Luffy outfit in the Item Shop for 1,800 V-Bucks, or grab the 4,000 V-Bucks One Piece Bundle before it rotates out on December 4, 2026.
How to Get One Piece Luffy Skin in Fortnite — Quick Facts
| Detail | Info |
|---|---|
| Outfit | Monkey D. Luffy |
| Price | 1,800 V-Bucks (4,000 V-Bucks for the bundle) |
| Released | November 1, 2026 |
| Leaves the Shop | December 4, 2026 |
| In the Battle Pass? | No — Ace and Nico Robin are |
| Free way to play as Luffy | Eat the Gum-Gum Fruit in Battle Royale |
How to get the Luffy skin in Fortnite: launch the game, open the Item Shop, find the One Piece section, select the Monkey D. Luffy outfit for 1,800 V-Bucks or the full One Piece Bundle for 4,000 V-Bucks, hold the purchase button to confirm, then equip it from your Locker. There are no quests or challenges gating the outfit itself — it’s a straight shop purchase with a hard deadline.
Luffy Skin Price and One Piece Bundle Contents
Epic sells the Straw Hat captain two ways, and it’s worth comparing before you spend:
- Monkey D. Luffy Outfit — 1,800 V-Bucks. The standalone skin.
- One Piece Bundle — 4,000 V-Bucks. Includes the Monkey D. Luffy Outfit, Luffy’s Straw Hat Back Bling, the Gum-Gum Pistol Pickaxe, and the Multi-Punches Flex Emote.
If you actually plan to use the back bling, pickaxe, or emote, the bundle is clearly the smarter buy — three extra cosmetics for 2,200 V-Bucks on top of the outfit’s price is solid value for a collab this big. And since every One Piece cosmetic leaves the shop on December 4, 2026, there’s no “wait for a sale” play here.
How to Buy the Luffy Skin in Fortnite (Step by Step)
- Launch Fortnite and open the Item Shop tab from the lobby.
- Locate the One Piece section and select Monkey D. Luffy.
- Pick the 1,800 V-Bucks outfit or the 4,000 V-Bucks One Piece Bundle.
- Press and hold the Purchase button to confirm the transaction.
- Open your Locker and equip the outfit — then go flex that Gum-Gum Pistol.
Quick tip: if the One Piece section isn’t on the featured page, check the rotating side tabs. Big collab sections shuffle daily, especially now that the shop is stuffed with Treasure Hunters content.
Troubleshooting: Purchase Not Working?
- “Not enough V-Bucks” — check your balance in the top-right of the shop; bundles and outfits can’t be partially funded.
- Skin not showing — restart the game client; collab sections sometimes load late after an update.
- Bought twice by accident — Fortnite blocks duplicate outfit purchases, but if a charge went through, open a ticket with Epic Player Support.
Can You Get the Luffy Skin for Free?
No — the Luffy outfit itself is purchase-only, and anyone selling “free skin” methods is scamming you. That said, I found several legit ways to enjoy the One Piece event without spending a V-Buck:
- One Piece quests. Open the Quests tab and work through the episode challenges: deal 700 damage with Zoro’s Swords, travel 250 meters with the Gum-Gum Rocket, collect 16 of Nami’s Tangerines, chat with two Straw Hat Crew NPCs at Loguetown, and reach a Top 10 finish. Every quest pays 10,000 XP, and milestone rewards are free sprays — 1 quest: Luffy and Zoro Spray, 3: Nami and Usopp Spray, 5: Sanji and Tony Tony Chopper Spray, 7: Buggy Spray. More episodes drop as the mini-season progresses.
- The Gum-Gum Fruit. This mythic item spawns across the new Crossbones Isle map. Eat one and you can fight with Luffy’s actual powers — Gum-Gum Rocket included — in a normal match, completely free.
- One Piece POIs. Drop at Arlong Park or Windmill Village to explore iconic series locations and their themed loot.

Ace and Nico Robin Are in the Battle Pass Instead
Luffy isn’t in the Treasure Hunters pass — Portgas D. Ace and Nico Robin are, alongside anime remix looks for Jonesy, Cuddle Team Leader, and Charlotte. Fortnite Crew subscribers get the pass and both One Piece skins at no extra cost, which is the cheapest route to a One Piece outfit this season. There’s also a gifting bonus: gift the Battle Pass to a friend and you’ll both receive the Dark Kawaii Team Leader outfit style. If Ace or Robin was your real target, skip the shop entirely and work through the pass tiers instead.
Every One Piece Skin and Its Fortnite Shop Date
Epic is drip-feeding the crew throughout November, so here’s the confirmed shop schedule:
| One Piece Release | Shop Date |
|---|---|
| Luffy, Nami, Usopp | November 1, 2026 |
| Zoro, Sanji, and the Chopper Sidekick | November 7, 2026 |
| Buggy | November 13, 2026 |
All One Piece cosmetics leave the shop on December 4, 2026, one day before the unforgettable Chapter 7 end event on December 5. Epic is also hosting One Piece competitive cups during the season — check Fortnite’s competitive page if you’d rather earn glory than buy it. For context on how Chapter 7 wrapped up, our Fortnite update 42.40 patch notes cover the final pre-collab update.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Waiting past the deadline. One Piece cosmetics rotate out December 4, 2026, and Epic hasn’t confirmed when they return.
- Buying the outfit before pricing the bundle. If you’d ever use the back bling or emote, the 4,000 V-Bucks bundle wins on value.
- Confusing the Gum-Gum Fruit with the skin. The mythic item grants Luffy-style powers in matches; it does not unlock the outfit.
- Ignoring the Quests tab. Eight quests of free XP and sprays are just sitting there.
- Sleeping on Mastery Mondays and Treasure Hours Sundays — the boosted loot windows make quest grinding noticeably faster.
