Which brands do you want to see in Fortnite next?

Fortnite has introduced Kicks, a new way for players to customize their appearance and expression in the game. Long rumored, Kicks is more than just a couple of brands as Epic Games promises to make almost all of their cosmetics compatible with Kicks over the next few months.

Here’s all we know about Fortnite kicks, Nikes, Jordans, and much more.

What are Fortnite Kicks?

Fortnite has always been about being able to customize your appearance and your looks with unique skins and cosmetics. Fortnite players have seen several collaborations bringing various superheroes, pop culture icons and more into the universe. But footwear has surprisingly been an elusive part of the cosmetic ensemble. 

The initial lineup of Kicks will feature Nike and Jordan brands alongside Fortnite originals. Look out for other brands to join the lineup in the future! Kicks will be compatible with over 500 of the most popular Fortnite Outfits to start, with more than 95% of Outfits compatible by Spring of next year.

Epic Games.

Fortnite Kicks are available with the Remix pass and will first arrive in the shop starting November 12, 2024. It’s not just a brand collaboration as Epic Games promises to be the start of a series of new cosmetics. It all starts on November 12 with Nike and Jordans in addition to a few Fortnite originals. However, with time, new cosmetics will be joining the list of Fortnite Kicks in the future. 

Will existing Fortnite cosmetics be compatible with Kicks?

Over 500 existing cosmetics will be compatible with Fortnite kicks at launch Epic says. With time, the list of cosmetics that are compatible will gradually increase. The Fortnite developer says over 95% of Fortnite cosmetics will be compatible by Spring next year.

However, some cosmetics will take a bit more time and Epic has not confirmed whether each and every skin will get access to Fortnite Kicks. This primarily stems from the need to redesign some of the cosmetics to accommodate Fortnite Kicks. 

Fortnite players can get their hands on their first pair of Jordans starting November 12 when Kicks unlocks with the Remix Pass. Furthermore, Fortnite Kicks original is not a part of the Remix pass, although they will be available starting the 12th. Epic will release more information about Kicks closer to the release date.
