Necromorphs were no match for him and now Isaac Clarke – protagonist of Dead Space – landed in Fortnite with cosmetics inspired by the popular horror survival game along with an opportunity to earn up to 1,500 V-Bucks. The latest addition to the Gaming Legends Series dropped on January 23rd, 2023 ahead of the release of the highly anticipated remake – developed by Motive Studio. Epic Games is no stranger to shadow dropping collaborations without any prior announcements or warnings however the increase in leaks and teases from content creators typically negates that particular formality which unequivocally produces even more excitement and awareness of such matters.
Players could purchase the Strange Transmissions Quest Pack for $15.99 CAD from the Item Shop for a limited time which contained the Isaac Clarke Outfit with Reactive Style, USG Ishimura Back Bling, Plasma Cutter Pickaxe, RIG Back Bling with Reactive Style, and Bench Upgrade Emote. This particular bundle was not available to procure with V-Bucks due to them being packaged together as part of the deal. Epic Games regularly rotates these offerings back into the game for those that might have missed them initially with the exception of Starter Packs – appear only during their respected season.
The Gaming Legends Series has seen tremendous growth over the past few years with Epic Games having brought iconic properties and beloved characters to Fortnite including numerous Street Fighter combatants, Jill Valentine (Resident Evil), Ezio Auditore da Firenze (Assassin’s Creed II), and Guardians from the Destiny franchise. Players have also seen collaborations manifest themselves in the form of Emotes and Back Bling as was the case with Pac-Man and Among Us inspired cosmetics.
Fortnite is available now on Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One X, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4 Pro, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch Lite, Windows PC, and Android devices – iOS compatibility is available through GeForce Now and Xbox Cloud Gaming.
