The Fortnite Item Shop (including the in‑game shop and Webshop) resets once a day at around 0:00 AM GMT/UTC, which is midnight UTC every day.

Quick Scoop: When does the Fortnite shop reset?

  • The shop refresh happens daily at about 00:00 UTC (also written as 0:00 AM GMT).
  • This is a global reset time — the backend switches over once, and your local time just depends on your time zone offset from UTC.
  • In many regions this feels like “late evening” or “night before,” while in others it’s closer to very early morning.

What that means in practice

Because the reset is locked to midnight UTC, you just convert from UTC to your own time:

  • If you’re 5 hours behind UTC (like US Eastern Standard when not on daylight saving), the reset is 7:00 PM local time the previous day.
  • If you’re 8 hours ahead of UTC, the reset is 8:00 AM local time the same calendar day.

Some regions also shift one hour earlier or later when daylight saving time starts or ends, even though the underlying reset stays at 00:00 UTC.

How to check the exact time for you

Epic now bakes the precise timing into the game itself so you don’t have to do the math:

  • In the Item Shop, there’s a live countdown timer that shows when the next reset hits in your local time.
  • You can also use the “About Shop” / “Shop Refresh Info” panel in the Fortnite Item Shop or Webshop, which tells you when the shop will refresh for your region.

If you’re ever unsure (especially around clock changes), the in‑shop countdown is the most reliable indicator.

What actually changes at reset?

  • The daily rotation tabs update once per day at the reset time.
  • Not every single section flips every time; featured bundles, collab sections, or special promos can stay for several days or more.
  • Individual items now show when they’re leaving the shop on their description page, so you can see if something will disappear at the next reset.

This daily reset pattern has been in place for years and remains the standard shop schedule as of late 2025 and into 2026.
