Epic Games Announces WWE Collaboration with Exclusive Skins and More
Epic Games is set to end Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3 with a bang, introducing a special crossover with WWE. As the season nears its conclusion, players are buzzing with excitement for the Fortnite x WWE collaboration, which promises exclusive skins and other in-game items.
This isn’t the first time Fortnite has collaborated with big names. The season has already seen partnerships with iconic franchises like Transformers, Futurama, and Jujutsu Kaisen. However, the WWE collaboration is particularly notable, given the global popularity of both brands.
According to leaks, the Fortnite x WWE crossover is slated to launch in the item shop on August 16, 2023, at 5 pm PT. Fans might catch a glimpse of content creators showcasing the new skins a day earlier, adding to the anticipation.
The collaboration will feature WWE superstars Becky Lynch and Bianca Belair, both of whom have been teased as part of the crossover on WWE’s official social media channels earlier this year. While the exact details of the in-game items remain under wraps, leaks suggest that players can expect WWE-themed pickaxes, back bling, and loading screens. As for the pricing, the new skins are expected to range between 1800 to 2500 V-Bucks.
In a previous Fortnite season, players had the opportunity to acquire a John Cena skin and a WWE championship belt as back bling. It’s speculated that these items might make a return to the item shop during this crossover.
Epic Games is yet to make an official announcement, but the gaming community is eagerly awaiting more details on this grand collaboration.
