As a part of a collaboration between IO Interactive and Epic Games, Fortnite has brought in a new cosmetic that can be claimed in the game. 007 First Light Wheels are available in Fortnite as a part of a collaboration between both games.
To be honest, it’s a great collection to have if you love collecting rare cars or are a fan of the James Bond franchise. But how can one redeem it in the game? There’s a way to get 007 First Light Wheels in Fortnite. Let’s see how you can do that!
About 007 First Light Wheels: Design and look
007 First Light Wheels are inspired by James Bond’s Aston Martin DB5. They look like an exact replica of his car from the series. These are Obsidian Gold Wheels, with rims having an obsidian finish with a slight golden accent.
Unlike other wheels in the Fortnite game, these wheels look subtle to the eye. Not too flashy, and adds a stealth but premium aesthetic to the game. Once you unlock them, they will stay in your Fortnite locker, and you can equip them whenever you want to.

As a part of the collaboration, the wheels are available in Fortnite when you purchase 007 First Light. When you buy the game, you will get the cosmetic for free in your account. Here’s how you can get the 007 First Light Wheels for free.
But before we go ahead, make sure you use the same Epic account to buy 007 First Light that you are using with Fortnite. So let’s see how:

Availability of 007 First Light Wheels
The pre-order was made available on 7 May 2026. And it will be up till 27 May 2026. You can buy the game during pre-order or after launch, and still get the launch. However, official announcements didn’t tell the exact date by which you can redeem the wheels, and you might get them even after the post-launch period.
If you buy the game after pre-ordering, you won’t be able to redeem the free 007 First Light Wheels. Also, if you cancel the pre-order before the release, you will get a 100% refund of the amount you paid, but the wheels will also be removed from the locker.
Can You Buy Them from the Item Shop?
Currently, the wheels are not available in the item shop. And there’s no certainty whether the wheels will be made available later on or not. However, it is expected that we might not see 007 light wheels in the item shop till 3-4 months after the launch. So if you want to get the wheels, buy the game and avail them.
Signing off..!
If you are a James Bond fan, these wheels are a must-have in your collection. Though the wheels are free as the offer, you will have to purchase the game to get the wheels. The launch date is near, so if you want to get the game, then I suggest you buy during the pre-order to avail extra benefits.
Pre-order ends on 27 May, and the clock’s ticking fast. So get your hands on the game now, and unlock the wheels in your Fortnite locker.
