Marvel has had a number of impressive collaborations with Fortnite, bringing a wide range of its characters to the game. Epic Games has introduced a wide range of classic heroes and recreations of those on screens over the last few years. The latest collaboration sees the newest MCU Captain America, Sam Wilson, getting added to Fortnite.
In a tweet, Epic Games shared the announcement of the release with the Captain America and BriteStar loading screen on Twitter. Characters who purchase the bundle will receive it alongside the new characters and their items. The addition of Wilson’s Captain America was previously leaked by data miners after the most recent update.
Tweets from data miners also showed the different items that were decrypted as part of the Item Shop reset at 6pm CT. It looks like the bundle will include:
- BriteStar skin
- Captain America skin
- Cap’s Shield and Brite’s Shield back blings
- Exo-7 Falcon Wings glider
- Brave and Brite wrap
- Captain America and the BriteStar loading screen
The Captain America skin is seemingly based on the MCU version of Sam Wilson, even mimicking the suit style that has been seen at the end of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. With the next Captain America movie expected in 2024, this suit will give players some early experience with the Captain in his brand-new suit.
The set is available in the Item Shop now and will likely remain for at least a few days. That being said, Epic may remove it at any time they see fit, so purchase it early if you want it
