Make Way for the Friendly King: Nick Eh 30 Joins the Fortnite Icon Series!

Posted by The Fortnite Team on

Ehmazing news! Prepare the W key because fan-favorite content creator Nick Eh 30 joins the Fortnite Icon Series. (The humble king finally gets the red carpet due him!) To celebrate this friendly streaming sovereign, items from the new Nick Eh 30 Set will be entering the Shop on June 15, 2024, at 8 PM ET — including the Nick Eh 30 Outfit, Eh Crown Pickaxe, and Never Back Down Back Bling. (never what?)

Never give up! Compete in the Nick Eh 30 Icon Cup on June 12 for a chance to unlock these three items early.


For the Meme, the Dream, the Stream, and the Eh Team!

The meme’s just a dream a little bit longer: the Nick Eh 30 Outfit is almost here! Toggle Nick’s glasses on or off, and a helmet. (Safety first!) Get a little more sophisticated with The King alt Style, which sparks with electricity and features a deceptively sinister crown. It’s no Victory Crown, but… Eh. 

Nick Eh 30’s King Style.


Every king should have a scepter, and we’ve got just the thing: the Eh Crown Pickaxe! And if anyone questions who’s in charge, kindly remind them who’s boss with the You Think You’re The King? Emote

The dream, the stream, the Eh Team, now it’s time for the Eh Theme. Show your opponents you’ll never back down by putting the Eh Theme Wrap on your gear! Eh Theme lights up with electricity whenever you fire your weapon.



There are certain words that any Nick Eh 30 fan lives by. Take them with you across Fortnite with the Never Back Down Back Bling (included with the Outfit), which displays a different motivational message depending on your Health count!



Speaking of motivation, get a blast of uplifting rhythm with the Never Back Down Jam Track which doubles as a Lobby Track!



Forget a horse and carriage, real kings drive supercars. Rev like a royal with the Nick Eh 30 Decal for the Cyclone Car Body! You can pick up the Decal and Cyclone as part of the Nick Eh 30 Cyclone Bundle, which also includes Cyclone’s regular Decals:

  • Bat Boy

  • Flames

  • L-ITA 99

  • Sliver

  • Stripes

  • Whiteout


If you already have the Cyclone Car Body Bundle in Fortnite, you’ll automatically receive the Nick Eh 30 Decal when it comes to the Shop, as well as ALL Cyclone Decals that come to the Shop in the future if they're not in your collection. This applies to all Car Body Bundles starting in v30.10. If any Decal for a Car Body Bundle you own enters the Shop, you’ll receive that Decal automatically if you don't already have it.

Practice Good Sportsmanship with the Nick Eh 30 Icon Cup!

Wish your fellow competitors good luck in the Nick Eh 30 Icon Cup, a Battle Royale Duos tournament happening June 12! Fight for your place as one of the top point-earning players in your region to unlock the Nick Eh 30 Outfit, Never Back Down Back Bling, and Eh Crown Pickaxe before they hit the Shop.



Duos who get at least 30 eliminations in the tournament will also earn the You Think You’re The King? Emote before it hits the Shop! And all players who get at least eight points will unlock the King Eh 30 Spray.
