Fortnite fans can soon dress up like their favourite characters after Epic Games partnered with Rubie’s Masquerade. In a European deal brokered by IMG, the branded collection will feature costumes, masks and accessories.

"We are absolutely thrilled to be part of the Fortnite phenomenon. Fans will soon be able to replicate their favourite Fortnite characters as they prepare for epic battles in our officially licensed costumes and accessories," said Tania Hrycko, Licensing Manager EMEA, Rubie’s Masquerade. “We will be launching with some of the most sought-after character costumes and accessories for tweens and adults alike and will continue to strengthen our range alongside the ever-evolving skins from Epic. We are so excited to be part of this journey with Epic Games.”

"A big part of Fortnite is letting players express themselves in the game," said Epic Games co-founder Mark Rein. "We're thrilled to be partnering with Rubie's to bring them high-quality costumes and accessories so they can express themselves outside of the game, too."

Launching this Autumn/Winter, the range will be available to purchase from a variety of online retailers.
