The First VTuber Joins the Battle Bus
History has been made in the Fortnite metaverse. Kizuna AI, the world's first Virtual YouTuber (VTuber) who pioneered the industry back in 2016, has officially joined the Fortnite Icon Series. This groundbreaking collaboration brings her infectious energy, signature style, and iconic music directly to the Battle Royale island and Fortnite Festival main stage.
Whether you are a long-time fan of her "Hai Domo!" intro or just discovering the virtual diva, this bundle offers one of the most comprehensive sets of cosmetics we've seen in Chapter 7. From reactive outfits to festival-ready instruments, here is everything you need to know about the Kizuna AI Fortnite skin and bundle.
What's Included in the Kizuna AI Bundle?
The Kizuna AI Bundle is a massive collection that covers all game modes, including Battle Royale, LEGO Fortnite, and Fortnite Festival. Purchasing the bundle for 2,400 V-Bucks saves you significantly compared to buying items individually.

- Hello, Morning! EmoteTraversal emote featuring her hit song.
- Lovely Kizuna GuitarHeart-tipped guitar for Festival mode.

Kizuna AI Skin Price & Release Date
The collaboration officially launched in the Item Shop on January 16, 2026. While the bundle offers the best value at 2,400 V-Bucks, players can also purchase individual items.
Is the Bundle Worth It?
Absolutely. If you were to buy the skin (1,500), emote (500), and gear bundle (1,000) separately, you'd be spending 3,000 V-Bucks. The Kizuna AI Bundle at 2,400 V-Bucks saves you 600 V-Bucks—essentially giving you the emote for free plus extra change.
| Item | Price (V-Bucks) |
|---|---|
| Kizuna AI Bundle | 2,400 (Best Value) |
| Kizuna AI Outfit | 1,500 |
| Hello, Morning! Emote | 500 |
| Festival Gear Bundle | 1,000 |
Competitive Gameplay Review
For competitive players, visibility and hitbox are key. The Kizuna AI skin is surprisingly clean for an anime-style outfit.
- ADS Visibility: The "Pyoko-Pyoko" headband is visible but does not obstruct the crosshair when Aiming Down Sights (ADS). The hair physics are fluid and don't stiffen up to block view.
- Color Scheme: The bright white and pink palette stands out against the green grass and dark night cycles, which might make you a slightly easier target than dark skins, but it's a flex for confident players.
- Hitbox: Uses the standard female character model hitbox, offering a slimmer profile than male skins like Brutus or Venom.
Best Combos for Kizuna AI
Looking to create the perfect preset? Here are some top-tier cosmetic combinations that match Kizuna AI's aesthetic:
Back Blings
- • Six String (Pink): Matches her rocker vibe.
- • Skully Satchel (Heart): Complements her headband.
- • Back Board (Love): Great for the Jersey style.
Pickaxes
- • Star Wand: The ultimate sweat combo.
- • Rose Glow: Matches the pink energy effects.
- • Controller: Fits the "Gamer" theme perfectly.
Gameplay Details & Reactivity
One of the coolest features of the Fortnite Kizuna AI skin is its reactivity. The glowing accents on her bow and sleeves pulse to the beat of the music when you use emotes or play in Fortnite Festival. This applies to both the main "Idol" style and the "Jersey" variant.
Additionally, the skin is fully compatible with LEGO Fortnite, featuring a custom adorable minifigure design that retains her signature pink heart-shaped headband.
Did You Know?
Kizuna AI was the first to coin the term "Virtual YouTuber" in 2016. Her arrival in Fortnite paves the way for other popular VTubers like Hololive or Nijisanji members to potentially join the Icon Series in the future.
