Shaq in Fortnite: How to get Shaquille O’Neal skin explained

As someone who has been following and playing Fortnite for years now, I must say that the inclusion of Shaquille O’Neal (Shaq) is nothing short of exciting! Having witnessed the likes of LeBron James, Harry Kane, and Lewis Hamilton grace the virtual battlefield, it’s a delight to see such an iconic figure as Shaq join the fray.


Currently, identifying who’s in Fortnite seems more challenging than listing those not included, but a new addition to the game is Shaquille O’Neal (Shaq), and if you’re a fan of this basketball icon, you might be curious about how to acquire him in the game.

It’s not a novelty that athletes are featuring in the game; athletes like LeBron James, Harry Kane, Lewis Hamilton, among others, have previously been accessible within Fortnite when they go on sale.

As a passionate movie-goer and avid gamer, I’m thrilled to walk you through the process of acquiring the iconic Shaquille O’Neal (Shaq) skin in your favorite video game. Since there are various editions available, let’s delve into the unique versions this game has to offer for the Shaq skin.

When does Shaq release in Fortnite?

Shaq isn’t available in-game just yet, but players won’t have to wait long.

As a cinephile eagerly awaiting the latest cinematic offering, I’m thrilled to share that “The Skin” is set to premiere on my side of the pond—specifically, this coming Saturday, 5th October—coinciding with a significant mid-season event.

I’m quite fond of Shaquille O’Neal, and given that his memorabilia might not be around forever, it would be wise to grab an item if the opportunity arises now, rather than waiting and potentially missing out later.

In Fortnite, you’ll be able to acquire the “Shaq” skin from the in-game store, using your V-Bucks.

Currently, we’re unsure about the exact price, but it’s expected that the legendary basketball icon skin may be approximately 2,000 V-Bucks.
