Stranger Things Characters Now Available in Fortnite
Battle Royale hit Fortnite has added a touch of Stranger Things to its item shop, with characters and items from the show available to purchase.
In terms of characters, we naturally have Eleven with variant outfits, Chief Hopper (with or without hat), and the Demogorgon makes another multiplayer game appearance, having previously been available in Dead by Daylight.
On the item front, there’s Eddie’s makeshift spear, Steve Harrington’s baseball bat and emote that telekinetically juggles a breakfast treat, and finally, a back bling that’s a diorama of Hopper’s cabin that changes between regular and upside-down variants.
You can buy those separately, but the Stranger Things bundle gives you Eleven, the emote, the spear, the diorama back bling, and additional breakfast-themed back bling as well.
It’s the latest spooky collaboration in Fortnite, as the previous season featured Halloween’s Michael Myers, horror video game protagonist Alan Wake, and The Nightmare Before Christmas’ Jack Skellington.
