Fortnite has unveiled a partnership with F1 ahead of Chapter 7 Season 1’s launch and the 2025 Las Vegas Grand Prix.
As part of the collaboration, the F1 Cosmetic Team Set will be added to Epic Games’ title on November 20th at 7 PM ET/12 AM GMT.
This will let both fanbases enjoy a crossover between the gaming and racing worlds as players battle opponents for a Victory Royale, as stated in the press release.
The update will include outfits, gliders, and pickaxes themed around all 10 Formula 1 teams, which players can purchase from the Item Shop.
“This innovative collaboration with Fortnite is yet another way Formula 1 is connecting with fans and appearing in places you wouldn’t expect it to,” commented Emily Prazer, Chief Commercial Officer of Formula 1. “We’re obsessed with finding new and exciting ways to engage with our audiences that makes our sport sit alongside their other passions and interests.
“In recent years, Fortnite has collaborated with some of the biggest brands, sporting celebrities and TV series in the world, so we’re thrilled this new integration will enable players to engage with our series 365 days a year and further their love of the sport.”
Apart from F1, fans are also eagerly awaiting the arrival of Stranger Things in Fortnite on November 24th, which is expected to add five skins, according to the trusted leaker HYPEX.
