Great news for the entire community of Fortnite players is that the Wu-Tang Clan, one of the most influential hip hop groups of all time, is coming to the world of Fortnite. On April 23 at 7pm MX / 9pm ARG, these cultural icons will bring a style revolution to the Fortnite community with a wide variety of Wu Wear items.
Epic Games is committed to bringing incredible music experiences to Fortnite for players. We’ve had global stars in the game, as well as rising stars with the Music Wave Series. Here are all the details of the Wu-Tang Clan announcement:
Wu-Tang Clan Items
Players can choose from two iconic Outfits: “Old School Gunner” and “SHINY” and matching accessories in the Fortnite Item Shop.
The Outfits are available individually or together as part of the “Wu Wear” Bundle. This Bundle also includes the “Wu-Tang Sign” Gesture and the “Wu-Tang Style” loading screen.
Fun Fact: The “Wu-Tang Seal” Retro Backpack (included with the “SHINING” Outfit) and the “Worldwide WUWEAR” Retro Backpack (included with the “Old School Gunner” Outfit) react to music, meaning they anytime you find music in the game you will see the Retro Backpacks react and change their appearance.
Other available items: “Wu-Tang is Forever” Gesture, “Shimmy Surfer” Glider, “Wunique” Wrap, “Wu-Tang Stereo” Spray, and “Wu-Tang Clan” Banner.
Real Life Outfits To commemorate Wu-Tang’s arrival in Fortnite, Wu-Tang created a Wu-Tang x Fortnite apparel collaboration. This includes real-world versions of the “Wu” Outfits found in Fortnite.
