Fortnite 'Mainframe Break Pack' not showing up in game store? Here's how to purchase it

Developed by Epic Games, the same studio that owns Unreal Engine, Fortnite is a third-person Battle Royale title that is enjoyed by millions worldwide.

A few days ago, the developers started Chapter 3 Season 2 and surprised its player base by temporarily removing building, which is one of the core gameplay mechanics.

But the update also introduced bugs and glitches such as low mesh settings not working and the game crashing on PC.

And as if the aforementioned issues weren’t troubling enough, Fortnite players are now saying (1,2,3) that they are unable to find the recently released ‘Mainframe Break Pack’ in the in-game Item Shop.

In case you are unaware, the pack offers 600 V-Bucks, Beep and Boop Pickaxe, the Sticker ‘Em Up wrap, Sgt. Shiba Back Blind and the Zoe Clash Outfit at just $4.39.

Many who were looking forward to buying the pack are now frustrated and wondering how they can buy it. Here are reports from Fortnite players who are unable to buy the Mainframe Break Pack in the game store.

@FortniteGame where is the Mainframe Break Pack/Bundle on Xbox? My fiancé is on her PS5 right now and was able to buy it via the home page through add-ons…? It’s definitely not PS5 exclusive. Is this another case of PS5 always being favored?

I play on PC and see the preview for Mainframe Break Pack but if I click check it out or browse the item shop it is not showing. I have a Save the World bundle showing there. However if I go to the Epic Games Launcher on PC and browse Fortnite items I can purchase it there as an ADD-ON Mainframe Break Pack Break into the mainframe with Zoe Clash & Sgt. Shiba. Includes an outfit, back bling, pickaxe, wrap and 600 V-Bucks. $3.99

Thankfully, Fortnite developers have commented on the matter and said that they are aware of the issue where the Mainframe Break Pack is not visible in the Item Shop. They also said that it will soon be available in-game.

We’re aware that players who own the Voidlander Pack may not see the new Mainframe Break Pack in the in-game Item Shop. The new Pack is available on platform stores and will be available to all players in-game soon.
