Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 has been live for some time now, introducing a plethora of new pickaxes throughout the season. This has left many players curious about the total number of pickaxes released in Fortnite so far.
Unfortunately, the game itself does not provide a specific number of cosmetic items released. That’s why we’ve compiled this article to address this burning question.
How many Pickaxes are there in Fortnite?
In total, as of the writing of this article, there have been 1,191 pickaxes released in Fortnite Battle Royale. But knowing just the total number might not satisfy your curiosity. So, let’s delve deeper into the stats and analyze them for you.
Out of the 1,191 pickaxes, Epic introduced 282 pickaxes in the first Fortnite Chapter alone, representing almost a quarter of the entire collection. This demonstrates the immense success of Fortnite skins right from the start.
Additionally, Fortnite features 60 Marvel-inspired pickaxes based on characters from the Avengers universe. Furthermore, there are 61 Reactive Pickaxes in the game that offer unique effects or sounds when wielded.
As listing all the pickaxes available in Fortnite is impractical, you can refer to third-party cosmetic trackers to explore the complete range of skins in the game. These trackers also allow you to wishlist your favorite skins and receive notifications when they become available in the store.
What’s the rarest Pickaxe in Fortnite history?
The Leviathan Axe holds the title of the rarest Pickaxe in Fortnite history. Released on December 4, 2020, as part of the Kratos bundle, this pickaxe has only appeared in the item shop 33 times. Its last appearance was on Mar 19, 2021, almost three years ago. With over 60,000 Fortnite players wishing for its return, it remains highly coveted by the community.
