THE NEXT Fortnite skins have been leaked and musicians Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak skins are on the way.
Epic Games revealed the latest additions to the Fortnite Icon series in a blog post today.
The Grammy nominated duo, Silk Sonic, will be dropping into the Item Shop on Thursday, February 10 at 4pm PT / 7pm ET, which is midnight in the UIK.
If you want to get your hands on these outfits before then, you can compete in the Silk Sonic Cup on Monday, February 7.
You can find out more about the competition below.
As well as the Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak outfits, the Silk Sonic set also includes accessories themed around the pair.
There’s the Bruno Mars inspired Sound Scepter Pickaxe which is sold with the outfit, which seems to double as Back Bling.
And on the emote front, the Freedom Wheels Emote has your character “do a lil’ spin and do it again”.
Meanwhile, Anderson .Paak fans can look forward to the Sonic Snare Back Bling (sold with the outfit) and the Boom Bap Pickaxe.
Both characters come with outfit variants, including a reactive style.
Fortnite is also launching a new in-game radio station called Icon Radio. You’ll be able to listen to Silk Sonic, Bruno Mars, Anderson .Paak, with Bootsy Collins as host.
