Fortnite Unleashes Epic Avatar Universe Crossover: Gear Up with Aang & Korra Skins!
A recent leak has revealed that Fortnite is set to introduce new content inspired by the beloved animated shows Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra. This addition is expected to include themed cosmetic items and accessories for players, in line with Fortnite's history of engaging crossover events.
Avatar: The Last Airbender, first airing on Nickelodeon in 2005, has become a hallmark of American animation. It tells the tale of Aang, a young airbender tasked with mastering all four elements to unite the world's divided nations as the Avatar. Its enduring popularity has spawned a sequel series, The Legend of Korra, along with expansions into various media formats and several live-action adaptations, the latest by Netflix.
Fortnite Gears Up for Avatar-Themed Content
Data miners first hinted at the Fortnite x Avatar collaboration in late February, predicting its release during the "Myths & Monsters" Fortnite season. According to a tweet from ShiinaBR, a notable leaker, the collaboration could kick off as early as the week of March 25, 2024, beginning with a skin modeled after Korra, the protagonist of The Legend of Korra.
The same leak indicates that the Korra skin, previously announced for this Fortnite season, is set to debut in an update planned for March 26, 2024. Players will have the opportunity to acquire the Korra skin and related cosmetics through the Fortnite Battle Pass. Avatar: The Last Airbender themed items are slated for release around April 9, 2024, aligning with the typical duration of Fortnite's special event passes. Fans can look forward to skins featuring Aang, Katara, and Sokka, designed in the distinctive style Epic Games has adopted for 2D animation-based characters. Additionally, a glider inspired by Aang's loyal flying bison, Appa, and back bling reminiscent of Momo the lemur, are anticipated to join the item shop.
Fortnite's ambitious crossover strategy continues to incorporate elements from across the cultural spectrum, with the Myths & Monsters season introducing a wealth of original and mythology-based skins. Among these are characters from ancient Greek mythology and skins celebrating Ramadan, showcasing Fortnite's commitment to diversity and inclusion in its expanding universe.
