While Captain America's shield has appeared on the game before, now Fortnite is bringing Cap into the game. His character arrives just in time for the Fourth of July weekend in the US, which is also his birthday. The Captain America skin costs 2,000 V-bucks (around $27), which also comes with his iconic shield. The game will let you wear it on your back like Cap or use it as a pickaxe. Fortnite also introduced a Captain America-themed fireworks emote, which costs around 300 V-bucks.
