Sprayground's Fortnite Shark Royale bag is described as "the ONLY official Fortnite backpack" on the market and was launched earlier this year to the delight of the game's die-hard fans. The already sold out accessory features popular Fortnite characters which are depicted running from a storm in the midst of a landscape backdrop that resembles the mouth of a shark.

Suggesting new storyline hints for Fortnite's latest release, the bag is crafted from Sprayground's signature leatherette fabric and measures 18" x 6" x 11.5" in size. In addition to its spacious frame -- ideal for transporting one's laptop and more thanks to separated compartments -- the statement backpack is ideal for gamers with a flair for fashion.

The bag is equipped with a laptop compartment, a velour sunglass pocket and a mesh organizer compartment for optimal packing and organization.
