Fortnite Nimbus Cloud Re-Released: How To Get It

Nimbus Cloud, an iconic item from Fortnite’s joint collaboration with Dragon Ball, has finally arrived for a much-needed comeback. Initially in the game on August 16, 2022, this brings players the opportunity to travel through the air fashionably, just like Goku. Now that it is out again, here’s a detailed guide on how to get it:

Overview

Nimbus Cloud is among the list of rare gliders available in Fortnite. It can be obtained as part of the Dragon Ball Gear Bundle, which includes a few cosmetic items taken from the popular anime show. The cloud was originally available in the Fortnite Item Shop for 800 V-Bucks, but its availability also comes with the Dragon Ball Gear Bundle for 1,000 V-Bucks.

• Type: Glider
• Rarity: Rare
• Price: 800 V-Bucks (or 1,000 V-Bucks in the bundle)
• First Released: August 16, 2022
• Last Seen: August 30, 2022

Apart from the visual charm, the Nimbus Cloud serves as a benefit in gameplay. Players employing this glider are able to deploy it at varied heights; hence, in an extremely intense battle, they can land safely or escape quickly. This adds some fun to gameplay and isn’t only a cosmetic item but also a functional tool in the players’ arsenal.

This made Nimbus Cloud one of the most sought-after cosmetics in Fortnite due to its popularity. The return begins speculations about potential future collaborations between it and other anime series or franchises, further opening up the already diverse universe of Fortnite.

How to Obtain the Glider

Players can follow Fortnite’s social channels or community forums for the latest offerings; they will often get early access to leaks and predictions.

Purchase in Item Shop

• The Nimbus Cloud sometimes appears in the Fortnite Item Shop. Keep an eye out for its arrival in the shop.
• The Nimbus Cloud can be directly bought once it becomes accessible by players for 800 V-Bucks. Make sure you have enough V-Bucks in your account before you attempt to make a purchase.

Dragon Ball Gear Bundle Option

• If you would like to get more in return for your V-Bucks, you might want to look at the Dragon Ball Gear Bundle, because this package often contains more items with a Dragon Ball theme, aside from the Nimbus Cloud
• This pack is sold for 1,000 V-Bucks, so overall, if you are interested in bringing home a collection of items related to the collaboration, then one would call this an excellent deal.

Special Promotion

When additional Dragon Ball skins returned, Epic Games made a mistake with another Dragon Ball bundle. This latest incident was in August 2024 when a few players made a mistake while buying the Dragon Ball Gear Bundle. The Glider was attributed to this bundle as if it would be part of the pack when it had not actually been part of the bundle. Epic Games realized this mistake and understood how it would affect the experience of the player. Consequently, affected Fortnite players who mistakenly bought that Dragon Ball Gear Bundle in August 2024 have just received Nimbus Cloud Glider as compensation. 

Conclusion

Of course, Fortnite players are thrilled with Nimbus Cloud’s return as it is thrilling for any Dragon Ball fanatics. Luck favors one and all since Fortnite has made it pretty easy to get hold of this glider. So, if you want this amazing asset to spice up your gameplay even more, just keep an eye on the Item Shop rotations so that you don’t miss out!
