SypherPK earned his spot in Fortnite’s Icon Series after years of dedication. Here’s what you can expect when his bundle arrives next week.
It’s been a long time coming for Ali “SypherPK” Hassan—a true Fortnite icon in every sense of the word. Since fellow content creator Tyler “Ninja” Blevins joined Fortnite’s “Icon Series,” SypherPK became an obvious choice to receive an in-game outfit designed to his look. Sure enough, it’s finally happening.
Today, the Fortnite legend himself revealed his Icon Series skin during a Twitch stream. As a result, fans caught a glimpse of the greatness that awaits when SypherPK’s Fortnite set hits the item shop on September 22. We have the full rundown of what to expect with Fortnite’s latest Icon Series collaboration.
SypherPK’s Fortnite Icon Series outfit revealed in front of over 100K viewers
The selection of cosmetic items is truly uncanny, drawing inspiration from SypherPK’s real-life appearance and his newly created Oni Studios. Much like TheGrefg, Ninja, Chica, and Patrick Mahomes before him, SypherPK worked with Epic Games to bring his Icon Series skin to life.
“It’s no secret the Icon Series is an honor reserved for true Fortnite legends,” said SypherPK. “Seems unreal that I’ll be joining this exclusive crew, but it’s a dream come true and a reminder to keep on going. I owe this all to my community who’s stuck with me for years.”
SypherPK’s Fortnite outfit offering is quite expansive, covering three unique styles and allowing players to wear two different masks if they’d prefer.
Here is a look at the SypherPK Icon Series outfits:
- SypherPK non-Onified default Style with Crimson Mask
- Oni-infused Empowered Style
- Reactive Possessed Style — becomes more “Onified” with each elimination
- Alternate options include the Onyx Mask
Of course, with any Fortnite bundle, there has to be an array of accessories (pictured above). For SypherPK, we have a reactive back bling, pickaxe, and an emote.
- Oni’s Curse Back Bling: It only grows stronger. (Included with the SypherPK Outfit)
- Reactive — its energy increases as you get more eliminations in a match
- Sypher’s Scimitar Pickaxe: A curved blade imbued with dark power
- Reactive — its energy increases as you get more eliminations in a match.
- Sypher’s Strut Emote: Sheeeeeesh indeed
Lastly, regarding the SypherPK Icon Series cosmetics, you can earn the free by linking your Twitch and Epic Games account and watching SypherPK on Twitch between September 18 to September 22.
