Epic Games has revealed its latest collaboration and coming to the hit battle royale game is one of the biggest anime shows. Katara, Toph, and Zuko from Avatar: The Last Airbender will join the battle royale action as Outifts (cosmetic character skins) you can purchase from the Fortnite Shop starting Tuesday.
Epic Games announced the latest collaboration on social media, sharing a short teaser that shows Katara approaching Aan who is frozen in an iceberg. The video then quickly shows Katara waterbending, Toph earthbending, and Zuko firebending. These powers likely won't be featured in the game itself, but it will still be pretty fun to land a headshot on Goku (another anime character playable in Fortnite) as one of the main characters in Avatar: The Last Airbender.
Yip yip! Get ready, Avatar: The Last Airbender is coming to Fortnite.

While we don't have prices yet, previous leaks suggest that each Outfit will cost 2,000 V-bucks, or about $18.
There was also no mention of Aang coming to the shop; however, a subsequent tweet announced that Avatar: Elements will also kick off tomorrow. This will serve as the Chapter 5 Season 2 mini-pass — a smaller battle pass you can purchase to unlock additional Avatar: The Last Airbender-themed cosmetics. It's believed that Aang will be included in this mini-pass.
Fortnite is no stranger to collaborations and has had multiple crossover events with other animes. The latest was a collaboration with Avatar: The Legend of Korra, a sequel to Avatar: The Last Airbender.
Earlier this week, the game added several Avatar: The Legend of Korra cosmetics, including two special Korra skins that you can unlock by completing in-game challenges through the Myths & Mortals Battle Pass Quests. By completing these quests, you can unlock her Outfits and matching accessories.Player shave until May 24, 2024 to complete these special Korra Quests.
The game also added a special Waterbending technique. Similar to this season's Olympian Powers, players can pick up the Mythic Waterbending technique to hurl sharp, icy projectiles at opponents. It also restores health up to 100 while you're in the water.
Even before this season though, there have been crossover collaborations with other popular animes. Character skins inspired by animes such as Attack on Titan, Dragon Ball Super, Jujutsu Kaisen, My Hero Academia, and Naruto have all been featured in Fortnite at some point in the past.
