'Fortnite' Brings The Style With Wu-Tang Clan Items Next Week

by Rainier on April 21, 2022 @ 2:40 p.m. PDT

Fortnite is an expansive original world that invites players to be creative, resourceful and collaborative, combining building skills and destructible environments with intense PvP combat.

In Fortnite, players and their friends lead a group of Heroes to reclaim and rebuild a homeland that has been left empty by a mysterious darkness only known as “the Storm.”

Players will band together online to explore the world for resources, build extravagant forts, find or build insane weapons and traps as they protect their towns from the strange monsters that emerge during the Storm.

Fortnite Battle Royale is the FREE 100-player PvP mode in Fortnite. One giant map. A battle bus.

The last one standing wins.


One of the most influential hip-hop groups of all time, Wu-Tang Clan brings a style revolution to the Fortnite Island.

Starting April 23, 2022, at 8 PM ET, get back in the game and see a variety of Wu Wear items in the Item Shop, including new Outfits, Back Blings, Pickaxes, and more. And to commemorate this drop in Fortnite, Wu-Tang is dropping a full capsule of Fortnite x Wu-Tang gear (including physical versions of in-game looks)!

Epic Games is committed to continuing to bring exciting music experiences to Fortnite for players.

A few highlights

      • Fun fact:The Back Bling is reactive to music (aka any music you come across in the game will mean the Back Bling will react and change in appearance), and the Pickaxe is reactive to hits (‘hits’ being anything you hit with your Pickaxe

"Fortnite has been in my household for years. It's been a pleasure and joy watching the game evolve, while becoming the go to pastime. This collaboration is a multigenerational 'drip' of swag and cool. If what you say is true, Fortnite and Wutang could be Fortangerous…." said RZA.
