Epic Games has had several issues with the Fortnite Item Shop over the past few weeks. Some items were released by accident, while others had an incorrect image. Due to this, the game developer has issued several refunds and even rewarded players with free skins. All of this began with the accidental release of The Paradigm skin on August 7, and last night, Epic had another similar problem.
Earlier this month, Epic showed an incorrect image for the Signal skin. The image showed a different skin, which was eventually sent to the players affected by the glitch. The same thing happened with the Scrap & Burn Pack, which is why many Fortnite players will soon get another free skin.

On August 20, Epic Games released the Scrap & Burn Pack to the Item Shop. The bundle includes several cosmetic items, quests for 1500 V-Bucks, and access to Fortnite: Save the World. Priced at $18.49, the bundle contains a lot of valuable items, although there was an issue with it. Once again, the bundle showed an incorrect image, which is something that Epic fixed on Wednesday night.
When the bundle came out, it showed the image of the Natural Constructor Pack for some players. This was the previous Save the World pack, and its image shouldn’t have been visible. To make up for this problem, Epic Games will grant eligible players the Natural Constructor Pack for free in the next few days.
Anyone who mistakenly purchased the Scrap & Burn Pack due to the error will keep it, and will also be granted the The Natural Constructor Pack in the coming days.

The Fortnite developer hasn’t revealed the exact date for this, but we expect it to happen by next week. Epic is generally quick with Fortnite refunds and free cosmetics, which is why we expect this skin to hit the lockers within the next 48 hours. In the meantime, make sure to check our guide on how to unlock other free skins in Fortnite.
