Fortnite Hits the Gridiron With New NFL Outfits
Represent your favorite team later this week.
The 2018 NFL season is in full swing, and Fortnite is getting ready to let players show off their love for their favorite team in the popular battle royale game. On November 9 at 7 p.m. ET, Fortnite’s in-game store will be updated with NFL-themed outfits players can purchase and wear in future matches.
Players can choose to represent any of the 32 NFL teams, as well as a fictional “Fortnite” team. As an extra cool touch, users can choose any number from 0-99 to be on the back of their jersey to customize their look. Both male and female avatars can wear the uniform.
Football players (and other athletes) have been known to recreate Fortnite dance moves in the end zone. With official NFL uniforms in Fortnite, the fandom has come full circle.
