Freddy Krueger is now available in Fortnite as part of the A Nightmare on Elm Street collaboration for Fortnitemares 2026. Epic Games has launched a 2,300 V-Bucks bundle containing the outfit, bladed glove, traversal emote and five additional cosmetics.
The live Fortnite Item Shop confirms every price and included item below. That matters because pre-release leaks did not always distinguish between Freddy’s shop cosmetics, his Fortnitemares boss encounter and the separate horror collaborations appearing throughout October.
Fortnite Freddy Krueger bundle price
The A Nightmare on Elm Street Bundle costs 2,300 V-Bucks. Epic lists the full individual value as 4,700 V-Bucks, so purchasing the bundle saves 2,400 V-Bucks compared with buying the same offers separately.
The bundle contains seven items:
- Freddy Krueger outfit
- Freddy’s Glove pickaxe
- Freddy’s Coming traversal emote
- Freddy’s Back Boiler back bling
- Freddy’s Flames wrap
- Krueger Specials Kicks
- Freddy’s Boilermaker guitar
This set is separate from the Five Nights at Freddy’s bundle and the other Fortnitemares collaborations. It also does not include the new Fortnite Black Clover skins, which have their own Item Shop section and pricing.
Freddy Krueger skin price and included pickaxe
The individual Freddy Krueger offer costs 1,600 V-Bucks. Epic packages the outfit with Freddy’s Glove pickaxe at that price. The glove can also be viewed as a separate 800 V-Bucks shop item, but players buying the character offer receive both cosmetics together.
That makes the 1,600 V-Bucks character offer the lower-cost option for players who only want Freddy’s core appearance. The complete 2,300 V-Bucks bundle costs 700 V-Bucks more and adds the emote, back bling, wrap, Kicks and guitar.
All Freddy Krueger cosmetics and prices
| Offer | Price | Type or feature |
|---|---|---|
| Freddy Krueger | 1,600 V-Bucks | Outfit plus Freddy’s Glove pickaxe |
| Freddy’s Glove | 800 V-Bucks | Pickaxe |
| Freddy’s Coming | 500 V-Bucks | Traversal emote |
| Freddy’s Back Boiler | 500 V-Bucks | Elimination-reactive back bling with selectable styles |
| Freddy’s Flames | 500 V-Bucks | Weapon wrap |
| Krueger Specials | 800 V-Bucks | Kicks |
| Freddy’s Boilermaker | 800 V-Bucks | Guitar, also equippable as a pickaxe and back bling |
Freddy’s Coming emote
Freddy’s Coming is a 500 V-Bucks traversal emote. A traversal emote lets the player move while the animation continues, rather than remaining fixed in place.
Freddy’s Back Boiler
The 500 V-Bucks Back Boiler is elimination reactive and has selectable styles. Epic’s official page shows reactivity on and off options, letting players choose whether to use the changing effect.
Freddy’s Boilermaker guitar
Freddy’s Boilermaker costs 800 V-Bucks. Although it is listed as a guitar, Epic confirms the instrument can also be equipped as a pickaxe and back bling through the Locker. That gives it more uses than a Festival-only instrument.
Freddy Krueger boss and Freddy’s Nightmare weapon
The paid skin is not the only Freddy content in Fortnitemares. Epic’s event overview says Freddy Krueger can also be encountered around Freaky Fields and the Nightmare Neighborhood point of interest.
Defeating the boss awards Freddy’s Nightmare, a gameplay item that allows its user to teleport into range and slash opponents. The boss reward is an in-match weapon, not a permanent Locker cosmetic, and it should not be confused with the Freddy’s Glove pickaxe included with the shop outfit.
How to buy the Freddy Krueger skin
- Launch Fortnite and open the Item Shop.
- Find the A Nightmare on Elm Street section.
- Select the 2,300 V-Bucks bundle or the 1,600 V-Bucks Freddy offer.
- Review the included cosmetics in the in-game preview.
- Confirm the purchase using V-Bucks.
Epic has not displayed a firm removal date on the individual offer pages. Item Shop sections rotate, so the in-game countdown is the safest source for current availability.
Is the Freddy Krueger skin a redeemable code?
No. Epic has announced Freddy Krueger as an Item Shop purchase, not as a promotional redemption code. Players need V-Bucks and should buy the cosmetics directly through Fortnite.
For genuinely code-based rewards, browse the CODSKINS Fortnite codes and cosmetics collection or read the Fortnite GameSir controller rewards guide. One current example is the Fortnite Storm Sigil Glider code.
Confirmed details versus unverified claims
Confirmed by Epic: the bundle costs 2,300 V-Bucks, contains seven items and represents a 2,400 V-Bucks saving against its listed 4,700 V-Bucks value. Freddy’s individual offer costs 1,600 V-Bucks and includes the outfit and glove pickaxe. Freddy also appears as a Fortnitemares boss with the Freddy’s Nightmare gameplay weapon.
Not confirmed: Epic’s live offer pages do not publish a guaranteed final shop date or return schedule. Any exact departure date circulating without an Epic or in-game timer reference should be treated as unverified.
