Fortnite is quite famous for doing partnerships with big brands and personalities to bring them in-game. This time Fortnite has partnered with the luxury fashion brand Balenciaga for in-game as well as physical outfits.
It’s time for a little closet refresh.

Emily Levy, Senior Manager of Partnerships at Epic Games said in an interview with Hypebeast,
We took four fan-favorite Fortnite characters and reached into the Balenciaga archive to create four meticulously detailed outfits and a variety of accessories. The looks were inspired by pieces from several Balenciaga collections. In close collaboration with Balenciaga’s design team, our artists at Epic used new techniques in Unreal Engine to accurately represent the look and feel of Balenciaga’s iconic fabrics, and designs when creating the new set of Outfits in Unreal.
Demna Gvasalia, artistic director at Balenciaga said,
Our partnership with Epic didn’t start with Fortnite, actually. It started with our own first video game, Afterworld, which we built using Unreal Engine to debut our Fall 2021 collection. From there, we have continued to be inspired by the creativity of Unreal and Fortnite communities. It made total sense, to me, that we collaborate further by creating these authentic Balenciaga looks for Fortnite and a new physical Fortnite clothing series for our stores.
