“Fortnite, the popular video game, is joining hands with NBA star LeBron James to launch a new pair of outfits that players can use to funk up their in-game avatars. Fortnite publisher, in a statement, said that the new gear “blends the best of LeBron’s on-court and pregame persona.”. According to media reports, the new outfits, or skins, will be available starting Wednesday. The game will reportedly feature a gear bundle that will include a Lion Pickaxe, Wingspan Glider and a new taunt called The Silencer. Media reports suggest that players will get access to a second outfit called Tune Squad LeBron. The outfit was reportedly created to commemorate the launch of “Space Jam: A New Legacy” in theaters. It is the latest pairing of Fortnite and sports. Last spring, Fortnite joined hands with football star Neymar Jr. as a playable character. The game also featured several in-game items and events from the National Football League. Fortnite has been teasing the arrival of a particular king for a while now, and it appears today is the day to debut him. Courtesy of images uploaded to Epic, with an announcement forthcoming, we have our first look at what Lebron James looks like in Fortnite form as a new skin. If leaks are to be believed, there are three variants – a casual look, a classy king look and a Tune Squad outfit. The casual look will feature LeBron wearing a taco shirt and cargo shorts. The classy king vibe look will feature LeBron’s look with a floating crown and the Tune Squad outfit is meant to promote his upcoming Space Jam sequel. According to media reports, a Lebron collaboration has been in the works for a while now, but was pushed back due to the pandemic. The previous skins featured Marshmello, Travis Scott and Major Lazer, Neymar Jr, Marco Reus and Harry Kane. Lebron will likely be for sale a few different times, and it will be safe to assume that is will be one of the most popular collaborations the video game has ever done. u00a0. #fortnitegame #FORTNITE #LeBronJames #Videogamesu00a0.”
