Fortnite Brings Lionel Messi Into Its Virtual World

Argentinian soccer player Lionel Messi is the latest global name to join the Fortnite universe. Last night the game released new outfits, emotes, and more allowing fans and players to channel the spirit of the sports legend.

On the release of Messi x Fortnite collab, the soccer player said, "It's amazing to see myself represented in Fortnite. Growing up, I never imagined something like this would be possible. Soccer has always been about joy and connection, and now fans can experience that through my own outfits in a way that goes beyond the field. I hope they have fun!"

Released at 7 PM ET on December 13, the Lionel Messi Outfit and the Streetwear Spark Messi Outfit offer two dynamic Messi-inspired looks. The original Lionel Messi outfit can transition from Messi’s field uniform to Stealth Lion Messi and Gold Lion Messi with The Mane Event Emote.

The alternate Streetwear Spark Messi Outfit offers a more laid-back number that interacts with the virtual environment throughout the gameplay. Finally, the #1 Fan Llama Emote offers a playful expression that projects a colorful llama pinata.
