Popular content creator Kai Cenat has confirmed his Icon Series in collaboration with Fortnite, arriving on September 12th, in one of the most creative ways the industry has ever seen.

The showcase was taken to a whole new level with the help of the Las Vegas Sphere, where Kai Cenat also announced the Mafiathon 3 subathon.

Promoting the partnership, Fortnite’s official account also tweeted: “Ayo!? Kai Cenat is our next Fortnite Icon: 09.12.2025.”

The reveal also gave an in-game look at his pet hamster, Lil Cenat, which will likely be added as a companion. Moreover, based on the video played, the bundle is also expected to include a pickaxe, car body decal and emotes.

Kai Cenat’s Twitch livestream titled BIG ANNOUNCEMENT has already surpassed 781,000 viewers and counting, as he took fans to the Las Vegas Sphere while also promoting Mafiathon 3.

September: The Busiest Month for Fortnite Fans in 2025

While Mafiathon 3 will clearly be the most hyped event, it shouldn’t distract fans from the fact that the 2025 Fortnite Global Championship is also taking place on September 6th and 7th.

The community will gather at the LDLC Arena in Lyon, France, to witness 33 teams battle for the trophy and a $2m (~£1.47m) prize pool.

Coming back to Kai Cenat’s Icon Skin bundle, its cost hasn’t been revealed yet; however, it is expected to be priced around 2,500 V-Bucks based on previous releases.

Before Kai Cenat, Epic Games had introduced over 100 Icon Series skins in Fortnite, featuring stars ranging from competitive players and streamers to music artists and sports personalities.

ESI Ranking System
We’ve created a ranking system to help you quickly know how good each gambling platform is. As gamblers ourselves, we know which factors matter most to you, so we follow a best-in-class methodology to test each one with no stone unturned. Once done, we then rank each platform based on the following tiers:
  • A-Tier High-quality sites that deliver a top experience every time. They boast strong performance, nice features, and reliable support, but are just shy of perfection.
  • B-Tier Solid platforms that are worth a spin. They’re safe, fun, and functional, but may be lacking advanced features or have minor drawbacks.
  • S-Tier Reserved for elite operators only. These go well beyond the norm with lucrative bonuses, rewarding promotions, lightning-fast payouts, and a flawless experience overall.
