Fortnite to introduce Sakura and Blanka

-

Fortnite is regarded in the game industry for presenting some of the most amazing commercial partnerships and crossover characters. Fortnite will now include two additional characters from the Street Fighter series. Blanka and Sakura will be introduced into the fight on April 28 at 7 p.m. CT. Blanka and Sakura are the newest Street Fighter characters to join the fray in Fortnite.

Street Fighter is celebrating its 35th anniversary and the franchise will honor the occasion by bringing two famous characters to Fortnite. This week, Epic will also offer two Cups to recognize the new characters, where players can earn a loading screen starring the two characters as well as Peely.

Blanka has been reborn in all his splendor in Fortnite along with teeth and claws. He comes with a considerably more professional Blanka Delgado alternative look in addition to the Blanka suit. Blanka comes with a built-in Backflip emote to help the player celebrate in style. Blanka will also include the Blanka-Chan back bling. It reacts to kills and grows more electric with each player’s kill. The Tropical Hazard Kebab, Blanka’s pickaxe, also serves as his favorite snack.

Sakura receives her original school uniform, an alternate gym style based on a Street Fighter 4 look, and the Victory Sway emote. The Sakura outfit also includes a claw machine-themed Back Bling, a Fighting Tournament Trophy pickaxe, and the Kayari Buta glider, which is inspired by a ceramic incense burner used to keep off mosquitos. Sakura will also take a principled stand on the island, after Ryu’s lead.
