According to a Ubisoft community developer, Ezio will be available in the Item Shop later this month. In addition, anyone who buys Assassin’s Creed Valhalla or the Dawn of Ragnarok DLC will receive the skin as soon as it becomes available.

For those who may be new to the Fortnite scene, this is far from the first crossover between Fortnite and a major series from another publisher. Other recent game-based tie-ins include Uncharted, League of Legends and Gears of War — and that’s without even getting into the broader pop culture crossovers with everything from X-Men to Star Wars, The Rock and, of course, why not, Air Jordans. In fact, Epic just launched the Amazing Web Week in Fortnite, which gives players the chance to earn Spider-Man’s Web Shooters as loot.
