Stranger Things Collaboration Immortalized in Fortnite Skins Drop
The final season of Stranger Things airs later this year. The show’s ending provides constant reminders to fans immediately. Epic Games now joins this list of culprits successfully. The company turns Fortnite’s Blitz Royale mode into a terrifying hellscape. This mode is not unlike the Upside Down immediately. Fortnite Stranger Things Skins drop with a huge shop update later this month.
New Roster and Mode Details
Will, Lucas, Mike, and Dustin are arriving as new skins. The villainous skinsuit Vecna also joins the roster quickly. Epic Games promises a full suite of back blings and pickaxes. They also include new emotes and LEGO minifigure versions immediately. These accessories accompany the new characters effectively. The skins are expected to arrive in the item shop tonight.
Details about Blitz Royale remain limited for now. The mode might feature a full mini-map overhaul. This map would have a Stranger Things-themed design. It would include relevant items immediately. This offers a chance for the return of Upside Down portals. Portals appeared six years ago during the first collaboration. That initial drop introduced skins for The Demogorgon, Eleven, and Jim Hopper.
Timing and Community Engagement
The Fortnite Stranger Things Skins launch on November 21. US fans can access them tonight. UK players will see the new items on November 22. Individual skins will likely cost between 1,200 and 1,800 V-Bucks. Premium emotes typically cost around 500 V-Bucks.
The launch follows a series of successful cross-industry partnerships. These included Hatsune Miku and The Simpsons previously. The collaboration occurs during a period of high excitement. Fans anticipate the final season of the Netflix series eagerly. The mix of current content and upcoming collaborations drives rising enthusiasm.
