In a thrilling turn of events, Fortnite, the globally acclaimed Battle Royale game, has unveiled its latest collaboration – a crossover with the legendary Elder Scrolls franchise. This marks the first time that these two gaming titans have joined forces, bringing the world of Tamriel into the Fortnite universe.
The much-anticipated Elder Scrolls ‘Nord Warrior’ skin made its grand debut in Fortnite on July 20, at 5 PM PT / 8 PM ET. This exciting release is part of a promotional campaign celebrating the arrival of The Elder Scrolls Online on the Epic Games Store.
For the uninitiated, The Elder Scrolls Online is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) that has now found a new home on the Epic Games platform. To commemorate this significant event, Bethesda and Epic Games have collaborated to introduce an exclusive Elder Scrolls skin into Fortnite’s gameplay.
The Nord Warrior skin, inspired by the Elder Scrolls’ universe, is available for purchase in the Fortnite Item Shop for 1200 V-Bucks. Despite the hopes of many fans and leakers, the skin is not free, even though The Elder Scrolls Online is available at no cost on the Epic Games Store for a limited period, from July 20 to July 27.
Fortnite has a history of bundling skins with Epic Games Store purchases, such as the Borderlands-inspired ‘Diamond Pony’ Glider that came with the purchase of Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands. However, this time around, players claiming The Elder Scrolls Online via the Epic Games Store will receive the Sigil of the Alliance War Back Bling as a free bonus.
Additionally, players who purchase the Necrom DLC for The Elder Scrolls Online will receive the Ebonheart Battleaxe Pickaxe and Backbling, along with the Sigil of the Alliance.
Elder Scrolls items currently available in Fortnite’s ‘Heroes of Tamriel’:
- Nord Warrior (Outfit) – 1200 V-Bucks (Fortnite Item Shop)
- Ebonheart Battleaxe (Harvesting Tool & Back Bling) – 800 V-Bucks (Fortnite Item Shop or with Necron DLC purchase for ESO)
- Nord Armor (Wrap) – 300 V-Bucks (Fortnite Item Shop)
- Sigil of the Alliance War (Back Bling) – Free with The Elder Scrolls Online claim via the Epic Games Store
