Fortnite Is Officially Adding the Wu Tang Clan

Fortnite has grown into one of the biggest franchises in the world of gaming since the battle royale first released in 2017. The massively popular shooter joined PUBG: Battlegrounds in kickstarting a battle royale craze that would sweep the industry in the coming years with similarly popular franchises like Apex Legends, Call of Duty: Warzone, and droves of others looking to join the trend. The ubiquitous presence of Epic Games' battle royale has also led the game to see plenty of crossovers over the years with pop culture and gaming icons joining the fray.

Fortnite's many crossovers have become a staple part of the game's content updates with Epic Games frequently introducing popular celebrities, comic book and movie characters, and even other games into Fortnite. Recent collaborations have seen the battle royale introduce several characters from Marvel's recent movies including Dr. Strange and Spider-Man as well as characters from gaming staples like Assassin's Creed and League of Legends. Now, Epic Games has officially unveiled the newest collaboration coming to Fortnite with cosmetics based on the iconic Wu-Tang Clan coming to the game.
