Hip-Hop Video Game Collaborations

Fortnite and Wu-Tang Clan Release the Exclusive Item Collection

— April 25, 2022 — Pop Culture
Wu-Tang Clan is one of the latest collaborations gracing the Fortnite shop with a new clothing collection. Players will be able to buy two different Wu-Tang-inspired outfits from the Fortnite item shop, and accessories like a reactive backpack and an emote. This collaboration comes after Fortnite’s Coachella-inspired event and in-game concerts from the likes of Ariana Grande and Travis Scott. Fortnite is making an effort to crossover into music with the signature Wu-Tang Clan 'Wu-Tang is Forever’ hand sign.

Earlier this week, Fortnite added Moon Knight to its list of comic book and pop-culture-inspired heroes. The influx of unique pop-culture collaborations is an innovative choice to promote the successful game. The Wu-Tang Clan Fortnite Bundle hits the item shop on April 28th.
