While Fortnite is better known for the characters it brings to the battle royale, there have also been several clothing brands that have partnered with Epic Games. The latest retailer is Ralph Lauren’s Polo, and one data miner has stated that players can expect the new skins to release in the Item Shop tonight.
This news comes from frequently-accurate Fortnite data miner ShiinaBR on Twitter, who claims they were tipped off about the new Polo Fortnite cosmetics. According to them, the Item Shop will feature the new cosmetics when it resets tonight at around 5 p.m. PT. The collaboration was first leaked in the latter part of last year, now allegedly being released tonight.
Update Aug. 3 at 11 a.m. PT: Fortnite has posted the tweet below teasing the Ralph Lauren Polo skins, likely meaning that they will appear in the Item Shop tonight as previously leaked.
As previously stated, Epic Games has added a new clothing skin collaboration every so often, with a number of premium brands showing up in the Item Shop. There will likely be more collaborations in the future with other clothing brands, and maybe even additional Marco Polo skins given that Epic Games sees success from these.
With Epic coming back from its summer break a couple of weeks ago, there have been a lot of leaks that have been coming out about upcoming collaborations. This includes everything from the Fortnite and Terminator collaboration, which turned out to be true, but also the leak that states popular anime Jujutsu Kaisen is also coming to the game.
Epic Games has only been ramping up its collaborations, bringing in more and more properties to make its battle royale feel as alive as it can.
