We've seen Epic Games partner with plenty of big-named brands for special in-game events in
Fortnite, and the latest sees the world's most popular game collaborate with one of the world's most popular sneaker brands.
Unveiled on Wednesday was the
Fortnite x Jumpan crossover. The limited time event features the limited time game mode, Downtown Drop LTM by Jordan featuring Creative artists NotNellaf & Tollmolia as well as specially-themed cosmetics inpired by the Air Jordan Jumpman.
Downtown Drop LTM is a custom game mode that actually doesn't involve killing at all. Instead, the goal is to grind down city streets and launching off massive jumps to collect coins to win.
Downtown Drop comes with its own set of unique challenges that will progressively unlock over the course of the next 11 days. Completing these challenges will unlock free cosmetics in the form of the Back Board Back Bling and its additional nine style variants as well as four unique Sprays.
Also available is the Hang Time Bundle, a cosmetic set that includes two new outfits, Clutch and Grind. The bundle also provides access to additional challenges that can be completed to unlock additional styles for both the Grind and Clutch outfits.
Fortnite's Jumpman crossover event will be available until June 4. It comes on the heels of Epic's promotional in-game events tied to
John Wick and Marvel's
Avengers: Endgame.
