Fortnite, the popular online video game, is set to sail into new waters with its upcoming collaboration with Pirates of the Caribbean. This exciting partnership, confirmed by Epic Games, is expected to bring a treasure trove of new content to the game, including iconic character skins, thematic map changes, and a new Ship in a Bottle item.
When is Jack Sparrow Coming to Fortnite?
The highlight of this collaboration is the debut of Captain Jack Sparrow in Fortnite. The charismatic pirate captain is set to arrive in the game on July 19, 2024, coinciding with the launch of the Pirates of the Caribbean event pass. Some players have already had a sneak peek at Jack Sparrow through the early release of the Cursed Sails Pass, a limited-time mini Battle Pass that includes various Pirates of the Caribbean-themed items.
What Does the Cursed Sails Pass Include?
The Cursed Sails Pass offers both Free and Premium Tracks, with a multitude of unlockable rewards such as Pickaxes, Loading Screens, and more. To unlock the Jack Sparrow skin, players need to purchase the Premium Cursed Sails Pass. This pass also includes Level Up Tokens, Emotes, and Back Blings. The Premium Track costs 1,000 V-Bucks, granting immediate access to the Jack Sparrow skin and the ability to unlock other rewards.
New Gameplay Additions: The Ship in a Bottle
One of the most anticipated additions to the game is the Ship in a Bottle Mythic item. This item, introduced as part of the collaboration, spawns a large pirate ship that lasts for one minute and does ongoing damage to any item or player that comes in its way. This new gameplay element is expected to add a unique twist to the Fortnite experience, bringing a dash of pirate-themed fun to the game.
Limited-Time Event: Don’t Miss Out!
This collaboration is a limited-time event, offering players just a few weeks to unlock exclusive content and enjoy the pirate-themed fun. The event pass is only available for a limited time, so players are encouraged to participate before the Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 release date arrives.
