How to get Pac-Man sidekick in Fortnite

After years of anticipation, Pac-Man has finally made his way into Fortnite. However, instead of arriving as a skin, the iconic arcade character is joining the game as a Sidekick! This means that Pac-Man will follow you around during matches and react to everything happening around you. With that said, let’s take a look at how you can get the Pac-Man Sidekick in Fortnite.

Here’s how to unlock the Pac-Man sidekick in Fortnite

The Pac-Man Sidekick arrived in Fortnite after the Item Shop reset on September 18, 2026, as part of the Pac-Man Bundle. Here’s a complete step-by-step guide on how to unlock the Pac-Man Sidekick in Fortnite –

1. Open Fortnite on your console, mobile, or PC
2. Head to the Item Shop tab
   
3. Choose the Pac-Man Sidekick (1,500 V-Bucks)
   
4. Hold the purchase button until the progress circle fills up
   

Once you’ve completed the purchase, head to the Fortnite Locker and equip Pac-Man as your Sidekick. The Sidekick features the character’s classic bright yellow design with red boots and brown gloves, which makes it a fun addition to any collection. You can also earn additional rewards by building up enough Sidekick Points while using Pac-Man Sidekick.

All Pac-Man Cosmetics Available in Fortnite

While you can purchase the Pac-Man Sidekick separately, it’s actually a part of the Pac-Man Bundle, which costs 2,200 V-Bucks. Although it’s the more expensive option, the bundle includes tons of Pac-Man-themed cosmetics that are worth checking out, especially if you’re a die-hard fan of the iconic arcade character. Let’s take a look at all the cosmetics included in the bundle –

The Pac-Man Bundle will be available to purchase in the Item Shop until September 25, 2026, at 8 PM ET. However, before spending your V-Bucks, keep in mind that the Lil Wayne skin is also available in Fortnite, so choose your purchase accordingly.
