Fortnite to collaborate with popular gaming series, ‘Assassin’s Creed’, by bringing a beloved character to the popular battle royale.

Fortnite loves to collaborate with multiple different franchises, whether it be with gaming, anime, movies, and more. Their newest venture is with the popular gaming series, 'Assassin's Creed'.

Ezio Auditore da Firenze

The popular Assasin's Creed character, Ezio Auditore, will soon be available to play within Fortnite. Auditore is a popular character from the Assasin's Creed lore, and is the playable protagonist in 'Assasin's Creed II', 'Assasin's Creed: Brotherhood', and 'Assasin's Creed: Revelations'.

This release comes with the recent announcement of 'Assasin's Creed Valhalla: Dawn of Ragnarok', a prequel expansion to the game 'Assasin's Creed: Valhalla', which was released in 2020.

How to get the Assassin's Creed skin

Yesterday, Assasin's Creed announced via Twitter explaining how to receive the Ezio Auditore skin in Fortnite. Players must purchase 'Valhalla' or the new expansion 'Dawn of Ragnarok' by March 10 to receive the skin in-game.

It is still unknown whether or not the skin will also be available within the Fortnite item shop. Fortnite has yet to make an official announcement of this collaboration on their end.

For the time being, Assassin's Creed: Valhalla is currently 60% off in the Epic Games store.

The future

With this being the first collaboration for Assassin's Creed and Fortnite, adds the question of whether or not we will see more collaborations in the future. Having 12 main games within their series, Assassin's Creed has been releasing games since 2007.

Depending on how many people utilize this deal will help draw the conclusion whether or not Fortnite chooses to collaborate with Assassin's Creed again.
