Kong and MechaGodzilla have crashed into Fortnite Chapter 6, bringing colossal power to the battlefield. Here’s how you can claim these legendary skins and dominate the island with monster-sized style.
These titans are joining the game right as the Godzilla quests are running, giving you a chance to play as both sides of this classic movie rivalry. Want to get them both? Keep reading to learn how to get Kong and Mechagodzilla in Fortnite.
How to Get Kong and MechaGodzilla
Kong and MechaGodzilla can be obtained through limited-time Fortnite store bundles or special event challenges connected to the MonsterVerse crossover. Players should check the Item Shop regularly, as these themed skins often rotate in and out of availability. Each skin may include matching accessories, such as back blings or pickaxes, that complete the set. Participating in any related collaboration quests or purchasing the event bundle with V-Bucks is the fastest way to add both characters to your collection.
Starting January 16, 2025, you can find both Kong and MechaGodzilla in theFortnite Item Shop. Kong’s skin is priced at 1,500 V-Bucks, featuring his distinct warrior design from the films. MechaGodzilla costs 1,800 V-Bucks, bringing its mechanical menace to the game with all the detail from its movie appearance.
The timing works well with the current Godzilla quests, which run until January 31. Signs of their arrival are already showing up on the map. The Shining Span bridge has been split in half, and large Godzilla footprints have appeared across the landscape.
Kong and MechaGodzilla Bundle Details
The Kong and MechaGodzilla Bundle includes both character outfits, themed accessories, and exclusive cosmetics inspired by the MonsterVerse. Players can purchase the bundle directly from the Item Shop or through limited-time offers during the collaboration event. Each skin features matching back bling, pickaxe, and special loading screens that highlight their iconic designs. Bundle pricing may vary depending on regional currency and whether players already own any included items.
The complete bundle costs 2,800 V-Bucks and includes both skins along with their matching gear. This set features Kong’s Battle Axe, the weapon he crafted in Godzilla vs. Kong, and MechaGodzilla’s Proton Drill, both available as pickaxes for 800 V-Bucks each when bought separately.
You’ll also get the B.E.A.S.T. Glove emote for 400 V-Bucks, plus two weapon wraps – the Roar Power Glove and Cybernetic Scream – each priced at 500 V-Bucks. Buying everything separately would cost more than the bundle price, making it the better choice if you want the complete set. Also Read: 25 Rarest Fortnite Skins and How to Get Them
Getting the Most From Your Purchase
Make your purchase count by exploring all the customization options available for Kong and MechaGodzilla. Equip matching back blings, pickaxes, and wraps to create a complete themed setup. Keep an eye on limited-time store rotations and special bundles, as they often include bonus items like emotes or loading screens that enhance the collection. Using these cosmetics during events or themed game modes can make your experience more immersive and rewarding.
The skins match their movie counterparts well, from Kong’s muscular build to MechaGodzilla’s technological details. Each piece in the set connects to moments from the films – so if you are a fan of the movies or just find these skins appealing – you should go for the bundle!
These items will likely follow the same timeline as the Godzilla quests, meaning they might leave the shop after January 31. The Item Shop tends to rotate collaborations out after some time, so getting them during their initial release ensures you don’t miss out.
Best V-Buck deals and how to buy them safely
The safest and most reliable way to buy V-Bucks is directly through Epic Games (in-game store, Epic Games Store, console stores), and the best “deals” come from official bonus bundles and smart use of the Battle Pass, not from third-party “cheap V-Buck” sites.
Safest ways to buy V-Bucks
-
Buy only from official platforms tied to your Epic account: in-game V-Bucks tab, Epic Games Store on PC, PlayStation Store, Microsoft Store, Nintendo eShop, or official gift cards from reputable retailers.
-
Avoid giving your Epic login or 2FA codes to anyone; no legitimate seller needs your password to deliver currency, and sharing it risks permanent account loss.
“Cheap V-Buck” sites and risks
-
Many “discount V-Bucks” or “gifting bots” websites rely on account sharing, chargebacks, or stolen payment methods, which can cause Epic to ban or lock your account.
-
Services that ask you to share your Epic login, link a stranger’s account, or wait for “gifts” in exchange for off-platform payments are high-risk and not endorsed by Epic, regardless of positive reviews.
Best legitimate value for your money
-
Larger official V-Buck bundles usually give slightly more V-Bucks per dollar than smaller ones, so buying a bigger pack less often is better value if your budget allows.
-
The Battle Pass is usually the best long-term deal: one purchase can keep paying for future seasons if you complete enough levels to earn back V-Bucks each time.
Smart spending tips
-
Prioritize items that don’t return often (collabs, limited-time bundles) and skip daily filler cosmetics so your V-Bucks last longer.
-
Watch for in-game bundles that include a skin plus “earning back” V-Bucks through quests or levels; these effectively lower the net cost of the outfit over time.
How to stay safe every time
-
Turn on two-factor authentication for your Epic account and regularly check login history and linked devices to catch suspicious activity quickly.
-
If a deal looks dramatically cheaper than official prices (for example 30-50% off) and requires your account access or off-platform payments, treat it as unsafe even if others claim it worked for them.
Are discounted V-Buck sellers on third-party sites safe to use
Discounted V-Buck sellers on third-party sites are generally not safe and are explicitly not supported by Epic Games, so using them always carries real risk to your account and money.
What Epic says
-
Epic states that it has no partnerships with unauthorized V-Bucks sellers and will not help with refunds or missing items bought through them.
-
If something goes wrong (chargebacks, revoked V-Bucks, bans), Player Support may refuse assistance because the purchase was outside official channels.
Common scam and fraud issues
-
Many discounted sellers use stolen payment methods or “triangulation” fraud: they buy V-Bucks with stolen cards, then resell them to players; when the fraud is detected, Epic removes the V-Bucks and affected accounts can be penalized.
-
Fake “cheap V-Bucks” sites and apps are a known scam pattern and often exist only to steal card data, personal info, or Epic logins.
Ban and account-loss risk
-
Epic has run ban waves against accounts involved in fraudulent V-Bucks sales and other unauthorized currency activity, which shows they do enforce against these methods.
-
Sharing your login with a seller so they can “load” V-Bucks onto your account breaks basic account-security advice and can lead to permanent loss of the account as well as its cosmetics.
How to stay safe
-
Only buy V-Bucks through Fortnite’s in-game store, official platform stores (PlayStation, Xbox, Switch, Epic Games Store), or legitimate gift cards from trusted retailers.
-
Treat any offer that is far below normal Epic pricing (for example, 10,000 V-Bucks for the price of 1,000) as unsafe, even if others claim it worked, because that pricing strongly suggests fraud somewhere in the chain.
