Two of the biggest media forces have teamed up for some football fun. Epic Games and the NFL are partnering to bring football-themed items to Fortnite. Players can select a uniform from any NFL team and put any number from 1 to 99 on it. However, if you’re not loyal to a certain team, there’s also a basic uniform unique to Fortnite. In addition, the uniforms will be available for both male and female avatars.
The announcement coincided with a video showing the uniforms in action:
There will also be a special referee skin, if you’d prefer to watch the action from the sidelines.
The football craziness isn’t just for skins, however. There will also be football-themed emotes, harvesting tools, and gliders, though we haven’t gotten a glimpse of those yet.
Interestingly, this is the first time Epic has teamed up with an outside company to create in-game gear. However, this it has engaged in some cross-promotion before. Back in May 2018, Avengers: Infinity War baddie Thanos came to Fortnite for a special Limited Time Event.
Recently, the Fortnite map went through a huge overhaul. Loot Lake transformed into a group of small islands after the Cube exploded. This followed the rollout of the 6.21 update, which introduced balloons.
