Epic Games expanded its Gaming Legends Series by adding Dave, the lead character from MintRocket’s underwater adventure title. You see him reimagined inside Fortnite as a playable Outfit, alongside a themed Back Bling inspired by his diving gear.
This crossover connects Fortnite with an indie game known for its mix of ocean exploration and restaurant management gameplay.
You receive two cosmetic items as part of the collaboration:
- Dave the Diver Outfit
- Dave’s Oxygen Tank Back Bling
Both cosmetics reflect Dave’s signature look from his original game, where you dive for sea life during the day and manage a sushi restaurant at night. The design stays faithful to the character while adapting him to Fortnite’s visual style.
Epic confirmed this addition after listing MintRocket among its official collaboration partners. The partnership places Dave alongside other recognizable gaming characters already featured in the series.
Unlike many previous crossovers, this release ties directly to a storefront promotion instead of relying only on a standard Item Shop purchase. That structure changes how you unlock the cosmetics.
Steps to Unlock the Skin at No Extra Cost
You can secure the Dave the Diver cosmetics without buying them separately in Fortnite. Epic links the rewards to a qualifying purchase on the Epic Games Store.
To qualify, you must buy one of the following:
| Eligible Purchase | Price | Availability |
|---|---|---|
| Dave the Diver (Base Game) | $19.99 | Available now |
| Dave the Diver: In The Jungle Content Pack | Varies | Releases June 18, 2026 |
This offer falls under Epic’s Store Loyalty Promotion, which grants Fortnite cosmetics when you purchase select third‑party titles.
Follow these steps carefully:
- Sign in to the Epic Games account connected to your Fortnite profile.
- Purchase the base game or the eligible content pack through the Epic Games Store.
- Wait until June 18, 2026.
- Log in to Fortnite after that date to receive the items.
Epic does not grant the Outfit and Back Bling instantly. The system distributes them starting June 18, 2026.
If you already bought the Dave cosmetics from the Fortnite Item Shop before completing the store purchase, you will not receive duplicates. Instead, Epic issues a one-time 1,500 V-Bucks refund to your account.
As long as you link your console accounts to your Epic profile, you can access the cosmetics across all connected platforms. Once granted, the items remain in your Locker permanently.
