Lewis Hamilton lands on Fortnite (video)
In a trailer worthy of Hollywood productions, Lewis Hamilton takes center stage to announce his arrival in the highly renowned Battle Royale game, Fortnite. It will be possible to purchase an in-game cosmetic to resemble the seven-time world champion.
From now on, players of F1 23 will no longer be the only ones able to embody Lewis Hamilton. No race car this time, but an armed struggle to become the ultimate survivor of an isolated island.
Nowadays, Fortnite is known for its cameos and collaborations with celebrities, such as sports personalities like LeBron James, Harry Kane, Patrick Mahomes, and Neymar. Music stars like Ariana Grande and even Travis Scott, as well as content creators and influencers like MrBeast and Khaby Lame, are also part of these collaborations.
The British driver is now available for purchase in the game, with even the possibility of having his dog Roscoe in a backpack. Lewis Hamilton’s “Icon Series” collection is available in the Fortnite item shop since Friday, November 17th.
If you prefer to use the driver in an automotive setting, the game Rocket League has also announced the arrival of a skin featuring Lewis Hamilton. No face this time, but a car in the British race driver’s favorite colors, yellow and purple. The pattern used is actually the same as in Fortnite.
