The Fortnite Crew November 2026 pack lands at about 8 PM ET on Saturday, October 31, which is 00:00 UTC on November 1. Epic hasn’t revealed the skin yet. The game files point to Monarcha, a dark-queen outfit tagged “Crew Series”, with the Chitinous Cape back bling and the Monarcha Chakram pickaxe. Crew still costs $11.99 a month and now pays 800 V-Bucks, not 1,000.
Checked October 29, 2026, 05:00 UTC. Epic’s own data still lists October’s Osric the Uninvited as the current pack, so everything about Monarcha below is labeled as a leak.

Quick answer
- November 2026 Crew skin (leaked): Monarcha, from the Dark Monarch set. Epic hasn’t announced her yet.
- Leaked pack items: Monarcha outfit (Epic rarity, LEGO style, hat on/off), Chitinous Cape back bling, Monarcha Chakram pickaxe.
- Release time: about 8 PM EDT on October 31, which is 00:00 UTC / midnight UK on November 1. That’s Epic’s standard Crew Pack time.
- Price: $11.99 / £9.99 a month (CA$15.99 in Canada). Local prices vary.
- What you get: the Crew Pack, 800 V-Bucks on your billing date, the Battle Pass, OG Pass, LEGO Pass, Music Pass, and Rocket Pass Premium in Rocket League.
- Last chance for Osric: October’s Osric the Uninvited pack leaves when Monarcha arrives. Epic says Crew items are never sold to non-subscribers.
Fortnite Crew November 2026 skin: what the files show
The Monarcha items were added to the game files on October 15 with the v42.40 update. Fortnite-API’s cosmetics database reads those files. It lists the outfit under the “CREW SERIES” tag, the same tag every monthly Crew skin carries, and gives her five Legacy styles. Leak trackers such as Timesaver and AltChar name her as the November pack too.
What it isn’t yet: official. As of our check, the Crew screen data in Epic’s public content feed still shows “October Crew Pack: Get the Osric the Uninvited Outfit, Back Bling, and Pickaxe!” in the next-pack slot. Epic normally reveals a new pack shortly before it goes live. We’ll update this guide when it does.

When does the November Crew Pack come out?
Epic’s Fortnite Crew FAQ says you get each month’s Crew Pack “at approximately 8 PM EDT / 7 PM EST on the last day of each month.” US clocks don’t go back until 2 AM on November 1, so October 31 still runs on EDT. The table below converts that time for your region.
| Region | Local time | Date |
|---|---|---|
| US Pacific (PDT) | 5 PM | Sat, Oct 31 |
| US Central (CDT) | 7 PM | Sat, Oct 31 |
| US Eastern (EDT) | 8 PM | Sat, Oct 31 |
| Brazil (BRT) | 9 PM | Sat, Oct 31 |
| UTC / UK (GMT) | 00:00 (midnight) | Sun, Nov 1 |
| Central Europe (CET) | 01:00 | Sun, Nov 1 |
| India (IST) | 05:30 | Sun, Nov 1 |
| Japan (JST) | 09:00 | Sun, Nov 1 |
| Sydney (AEDT) | 11:00 | Sun, Nov 1 |
Two timing details catch people out:
- The skin and the V-Bucks arrive on different days. The pack drops for everyone on the last day of the month. Your 800 V-Bucks arrive on your own billing date, so if you joined on the 12th, they arrive on the 12th.
- It’s a busy night. The pack switch happens hours before Override ends and the One Piece mini-season, Fortnite Treasure Hunters, starts on November 1. If Monarcha doesn’t appear right away, restart the game before you contact support.
How much is Fortnite Crew in November 2026?
Crew costs $11.99 a month in the US. Epic’s Crew page meta text still says “For $11.99 a month, get 800 V-Bucks”, and the Canadian version of the page shows CA$15.99. PCGamesN puts the UK price at £9.99. It renews monthly until you cancel.
The price didn’t change in 2026, but the V-Bucks did. After Epic’s March 2026 V-Bucks repricing, subscriptions renewing on or after June 6, 2026 get 800 V-Bucks instead of 1,000. Epic’s March statement, as quoted by PCGamesN, said: “The V-Bucks grant in Fortnite Crew will change from 1,000 to 800 V-Bucks.” Some older guides still say 1,000, so check the date on any guide you read.

Everything included in Fortnite Crew this month
This list comes from Epic’s Crew page and the in-game Crew screen data, checked October 29:
| Benefit | What you get | When |
|---|---|---|
| Crew Pack | Outfit plus at least one matching item. November is Monarcha (leaked); October is Osric the Uninvited with Revenant’s Coffin and Soulspark Lantern | About 8 PM ET on the last day of the month |
| V-Bucks | 800 V-Bucks | Your billing date |
| Battle Pass | Premium rewards from the current Battle Pass while you’re subscribed | Whichever pass is live, so Treasure Hunters from Nov 1 |
| OG, LEGO and Music Pass | Premium rewards from all three passes | While subscribed |
| Rocket Pass Premium | Rocket League’s premium track (use the same Epic account) | Current Rocket League season |
| Crew Legacy styles | A new style stage for Crew items every month you stay subscribed | Monthly |
Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members get the current Crew benefits as part of that subscription, according to Epic’s Crew page.
Is Fortnite Crew worth it for November?
It depends on what you play. The case for subscribing this month is stronger than usual:
- New season, new pass. Treasure Hunters starts November 1, and Crew covers whichever Battle Pass is live. PCGamesN notes that 800 V-Bucks is still enough to buy a Battle Pass on its own.
- Two exclusive packs for one payment. If you subscribe before 8 PM ET on October 31, you get Osric now. If you’re still subscribed when November’s pack drops a few hours later, you also get Monarcha. Your billing period covers both.
- Passes you’d otherwise buy separately. If you play LEGO Fortnite, Festival or the OG mode, those passes are included.
The catch: since December 1, 2024, Crew pass rewards only unlock while you’re subscribed. Epic’s FAQ says that if your subscription started on or after December 1, 2024, 5 AM UTC, you can claim premium rewards only “until the end of your current billing period” after you cancel, not for the rest of the season. Rewards you already claimed stay in your account. If you only want one skin, the Item Shop may be cheaper. Our Fortnite Item Shop today page tracks what’s in the shop each day.

How to get Monarcha and Osric: what to do first
- Subscribe from the Shop or Passes tab in Fortnite, or on the web. Choose your platform carefully. Epic says V-Bucks only work on platforms that support the Shared Wallet, and Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 don’t.
- Do it before 8 PM ET on October 31 if you want Osric the Uninvited. That’s 00:00 UTC on November 1.
- Stay subscribed past the switch and Monarcha arrives with the November pack.
- Log in on your primary platform if it’s been more than 30 days. Epic only grants benefits after you do.
- Finish Override first. Unclaimed pass rewards are auto-claimed when a pass expires. Your Sprites checklist and season quests end with Override, though. See our Fortnite season end date guide for the cut-off.
How to cancel Fortnite Crew
You can cancel at any time, and the cancellation takes effect at the end of your billing cycle. You cancel on the platform where you subscribed. Here are Epic’s in-game steps, shortened:
- PC or mobile (Epic payments): epicgames.com, then your account, then Subscriptions.
- PlayStation 5: Settings, then Users and Accounts, Account, Payment and Subscriptions, Subscriptions. Select Fortnite Crew and choose Turn Off Auto-Renew.
- Xbox / Microsoft: account.microsoft.com, then Services & Subscriptions. Select Manage, then Turn off recurring billing.
- Nintendo Switch: eShop, then your account icon, then Your Subscriptions. You can also cancel online at ec.nintendo.com/my/rights.
- Samsung Galaxy Store: Menu, then Subscriptions, Fortnite, Unsubscribe.
Epic’s help article on cancelling Crew has the full steps. A status change can take up to 30 minutes to show in the game.
