Fortnite has featured a ridiculous number of characters, Back Blings, Emotes, and other cosmetics over the last few years, so it's understandable that some items haven't resurfaced in some time after entering the vault, especially when Epic is so often partnering with licensed properties like Marvel, Star Wars, and The Walking Dead. A new Shop section is now available and features previously vaulted items exclusively. If you are just getting into the game now, it's a great chance to see the goodies you missed.

Each long-absent item in this new Fortnite Shop section has been unavailable for at least a year, and some of the deepest cuts go back to the earliest seasons of Chapter 1. Currently, the Vaulted A Year Or More section, as it's called, includes the Mega Man-like Astro Assassin, masked heroes Taro and Nara, medics Triage Trooper and Field Surgeon, and more, alongside a range of corresponding accessories for several of them.

Even though this is something fans have long clamored for, Epic hasn't said anything about the releases. Instead, these ultra-rare items all just arrived with the daily Shop update last night with little fanfare outside of the game's community forums. Each item features the same timer revealing the cosmetics are scheduled to disappear with tonight's shop update at 4 PM PT / 7 PM ET. Whether they'll be replaced with more rare cosmetics is not yet known.
