The Darth Vader Samurai Fortnite skin costs 1,800 V-Bucks with Vader’s Katana pickaxe and back bling. The Star Wars Samurai Bundle is 3,200 V-Bucks and adds Stormtrooper Samurai, a second pickaxe, an emote and two wraps. Epic’s Item Shop pages list both as buyable until November 12, 2026 at 00:00 UTC (November 11, 7:00 PM ET), so check the countdown in your own shop.
This guide lists every Star Wars Samurai item and its price, shows when the bundle beats buying Vader alone, gives the leave time in US time zones, and matches each total to a V-Bucks pack.
Darth Vader Samurai Fortnite skin price: every item
Prices come from Epic’s own Item Shop pages for Darth Vader Samurai and the Star Wars Samurai Bundle. The smaller items are from the November 9 shop as recorded by Fortnite-API, a community-run service that mirrors Epic’s shop data, where they sit in a section called Star Wars. We found no separate Epic announcement for this return.
| Item | What you get | Price (V-Bucks) |
|---|---|---|
| Star Wars Samurai Bundle | Both outfits, both pickaxes, both back blings, Lil’ TIE Attack emote, Vader Samurai and Trooper Samurai wraps | 3,200 |
| Darth Vader Samurai | Outfit, Vader’s Katana pickaxe and Vader’s Katana back bling | 1,800 |
| Stormtrooper Samurai | Outfit and Imperial Banner back bling | 1,500 |
| Vader’s Katana | Pickaxe and back bling | 800 |
| Trooper’s Kamayari | Pickaxe | 800 |
| Lil’ TIE Attack | Emote | 500 |
| Vader Samurai / Trooper Samurai | Wrap (each) | 500 |
| Imperial Banner | Back bling | 300 |
Epic lists the bundle’s original price as 5,600 V-Bucks, which is the Vader set, the Stormtrooper set, the Kamayari, the emote and both wraps added together. Vader’s Katana is already part of the 1,800 Vader set, so you only need the 800 Katana listing if you want the pickaxe without the outfit.

It depends on how many of the extras you want. The comparisons below assume you own none of the items. Epic’s support article says a bundle can show a lower price when you already own part of it, so check your own shop.
- Vader only: 1,800, which is 1,400 less than the bundle, and it already includes the katana pickaxe and back bling.
- Vader and Stormtrooper: 3,300 bought separately, so the bundle is 100 less and adds the Kamayari, the emote and both wraps.
- Vader plus the emote and his wrap: 2,800, still 400 less than the bundle.
- Vader plus Trooper’s Kamayari and both wraps: 3,600, so the bundle is 400 less even without the Stormtrooper.



When the Darth Vader Samurai skin leaves the Item Shop
| Source | Leaves (UTC) | US Eastern (converted) | US Pacific (converted) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Epic Item Shop pages | November 12, 2026, 00:00 | November 11, 7:00 PM | November 11, 4:00 PM |
| Fortnite-API shop data | November 12, 2026, 23:59 | November 12, 6:59 PM | November 12, 3:59 PM |
The two sources are almost a day apart. Epic’s own pages give the earlier time, so plan around that one, and check the countdown in your in-game Item Shop. Both listings went in on November 9 at 00:00 UTC. The conversions use standard time, since US daylight saving ended on November 1.
This is a return, not a debut. The item descriptions say the set was introduced in Chapter 6, Season 1, and Fortnite-API first recorded Darth Vader Samurai on December 25, 2024. Epic has not said when the set will come back after this run.
How many V-Bucks you need for Darth Vader Samurai
Epic sells V-Bucks in four standard packs: 800, 2,400, 4,500 and 12,500, according to its V-Bucks pricing notice. Matched against the prices above:
- Darth Vader Samurai set (1,800): the 2,400 pack covers it with 600 left.
- Star Wars Samurai Bundle (3,200): the 4,500 pack covers it with 1,300 left, or a 2,400 and an 800 pack add up to exactly 3,200.
- Stormtrooper Samurai only (1,500): the 2,400 pack covers it with 900 left.
If you are only a little short, Epic’s Exact Amount offer lets you buy just the V-Bucks you are missing from the in-game Item Shop on Xbox, Nintendo, PC, Android, iPhone and iPad, and on the web Item Shop.


Our Fortnite V-Bucks prices guide has the dollar cost of each pack. To send the set to a friend, the rules are in our guide to gifting skins in Fortnite. The Zoro and Sanji Straw Hats set is in the same shop if you are buying more than one outfit.
He-Man, Skeletor and She-Ra returned in the November 10 shop; our He-Man Fortnite skin price guide lists every Masters of the Universe item.
