Fortnite Item Shop UPDATE: How to get the Magnus skin in August 16 Item Shop

Epic Games brings a bunch of new amazing content to the Item Shop for August 16, as they reset the store. 

Today features the Legendary Magnus skin, as well as the chance to skip 10 Battle Pass Tiers for V-Bucks. 

The Item Shop is reset at midnight UTC every night, with players able to grab any skins to add to their collection. 

There is no guarantee that skins will ever return to the Item Shop, so make sure you buy all the skins you want while they are in the store. 

What skins are in the Item Shop for August 16?

The biggest and best item in the Item Shop for today is the Legendary Magnus skin, worth 2,000 V-Bucks, taking players back to the Viking era.

There is also the Rare Forebearer Axe for 800.

The first Epic skin of the day is the Brite Gunner for 1,500 V-Bucks, complete with the Epic Rainbow Smash harvest tool for 1,500 V-Bucks. 

You can alternatively purchase the Rare Brite Bomber skin for 1,200 V-Bucks.

Another Epic skin available is the Hazard Agent skin for 1,500 V-Bucks.

You can also purchase a 10 Tier Battle Pass lost, which will help you power through the ranks for 900 V-Bucks. 

The Rare Flippin’ Incredible emote is 500 V-Bucks, while the Rare Persuader harvest tool is 800.

Finally, get the Uncommon Rock Paper Scissors emote for 200 and the Assault Trooper skin for 800 V-Bucks. 

You will need to have 11,700 V-Bucks in order to purchase everything in the Item Shop. 

The Legendary Magnus skin comes with the Enduring Cape back bling as part of the set.

According to fnbr.co, the Magnus is the second most popular item in the Item Shop today, behind the Assault Trooper skin, one of the cheapest items today. 

Players are busy grinding through a new set of weekly challenges as well as testing out the new Heavy Sniper that was released in yesterday’s content update. 

If you are short on V-Bucks, you can grind through the game, completing daily challenges, in order to secure the in-game currency. 

Alternatively you can purchase V-Bucks straight from the game. 

1,000 V-Bucks will cost £7.99/$9.99.
