For the third consecutive year, there's a HI-CHEW x Fortnite experience for fans to immerse themselves in, plus three limited-time challenges: HI-CHEW Climbers, HI-CHEW Chewlet Grabbers, and HI-CHEW Block Drop.
From now until September 14th, players are invited into the Chewbie-Dome, a candy-colored hub located on Fortnite's Minigame Box PVP Island, to experience the fun, flavorful branded mini-games—and on the way, collect HI-CHEW Coins and unlock exclusive in-game items.
Beyond these action-packed experiences, HI-CHEW is taking over two classic mini-games with Chewbie Says Go! (a twist on Red Light, Green Light with Chewbie's "chewlish" language signaling when to stop or go) and HI-CHEW Pillars, where players will battle on branded floating platforms to be the last one standing.
