Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Invade Fortnite: A Surprise Encounter and Epic Collaboration

The Unfortunate Encounter

A member of the Fortnite community came face-to-face with a squad of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and learned about their in-game release thanks to this unfortunate encounter. Fortnite has engaged in dozens of collaborations with known names in various industries over the past few years. While they've tackled a decent number of franchises and brands, fans are always thinking about the next big thing.

For a while now, several gamers had been waiting for the four Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles to be part of the roster of collaboration skins in Fortnite. For months, leaks indicated that the TMNT x Fortnite collab could happen, and it seems that the time has finally come at last. Players can now purchase the TMNT skins in the Fortnite Item Shop. Individually, each Ninja Turtle costs 1,800 V-Bucks, and the bundle with all four siblings costs 3,400. Additionally, players can also acquire April O'Neil for 1,500 V-Bucks or her bundle for 1,800 V-Bucks.

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle skins became available when the Item Shop refreshed on December 14, 2023, at 7 PM ET. However, not everyone in the community was aware of their imminent release; a fan, in particular, was caught by surprise when they saw a gang of four human-sized turtles approach them mid-match. Reddit user ItsThatGoatBoy was the last remaining member of their squad, and they were only up against a full team of four players. They heroically tried to defend themselves, but they were rendered helpless by the menacing group of Ninja Turtles. Each member of the squad took out their turtle's signature weapon before bludgeoning the other player until they were brought down to zero health.

While this was not the best way to encounter these skins for the first time, many fans were quite pleased when Epic Games confirmed the addition of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle skins to Fortnite.

The Future of TMNT in Fortnite

Leaks indicate that other TMNT cosmetics will be added to the game in the future, as some emotes have been decrypted. On top of this, several other iconic TMNT characters would look great as Fortnite skins.

There are several franchises and brands, such as My Hero Academia and Marvel, which have joined forces with Fortnite more than once, as the collaborations proved to be a success among its community of gamers. If the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle crossover is successful as well, Epic Games may bring more cosmetics to the Item Shop in the future.
