Horror icon Ash Williams of the Evil Dead series is coming to Fortnite very soon. Here’s everything you need to know about the collaboration!
Fortnite and the Evil Dead franchise are set to collide during the annual Halloween-themed Fortnitemares 2022 event. Earlier this week, the Fortnitemares trailer marked the unexpected debut of Ash Williams–the protagonist from Evil Dead. Portrayed famously by Bruce Campbell in the Sam Raimi-created series, Ashley Joanna Williams has become a horror movie icon over the years. Now, the Deadite-slaying warrior will become the latest to join Fortnite Battle Royale.
When is Ash Williams coming to Fortnite?
According to Twitter user thebritenite, the Fortnite x Evil Dead collaboration will arrive on October 22. As a result, we can safely presume the Ash Williams bundle will be available in the Item Shop at 8 PM EST. However, you can see Ash Williams already in Fortnite Battle Royale. The horror icon exists in-game as an NPC, roaming a Fortnite version of the Knowby Cabin, as marked on the map below.
You can talk with Ash Williams from the Evil Dead series. Furthermore, he’ll sell you a Lever-Action Shotgun, Shotgun ammo, and bandages. Based on the leaks, we know what to expect when the Evil Dead Ash Williams bundle comes to Fortnite.
