Whether it’s Marvel, Street Fighter, and even Tomb Raider, it feels like Epic Games are always ready to jump on the latest trend and bring it to the Fortnite universe.

First look at Fortnite’s DUNE collaboration
Ahead of its release on October 22, DUNE has received an overwhelming amount of hype from cinemagoers and praise from critics, so it’s no surprise Epic has created a line of cosmetics for the film.
As showcased by reliable Fortnite leaker HYPEX, the exclusive DUNE cosmetics will include Chani & Paul Atreides character skins, Chani’s Satchel, the Fremkit, the Sand Walk emote, the Ornithopter, The Stickworm loading screen, and the Maker Hooks & Twinblades pickaxes.
It’s worth noting that there’s no official release for these collectibles, but as the film is in cinemas soon, we can expect these cosmetics to arrive in the near future.
