League of Legends and Fortnite are teaming up to bring the first League champion to a non-Riot licensed game.
Starting today, Nov. 4, at 7pm CT, Fortnite players will be able to purchase Jinx from League of Legends as a character in the game. Jinx will be one of the main characters of Riot’s upcoming animated series, Arcane, which will premiere on Netflix later this week on Nov. 6
The crossover promotion with Epic Games is part of the RiotX Arcane event, a celebration of the League universe across Riot’s various titles and beyond. The addition of Jinx to Fortnite marks the first time that Riot has expanded the League universe beyond the four games set in the world of Runeterra (League of Legends, Teamfight Tactics, Legends of Runeterra, and League of Legends: Wild Rift) and the company’s FPS title, VALORANT.
The landmark League collaboration is coming to Fortnite later today. Here’s how to acquire Jinx for yourself in Fortnite.
