Neymar Jr Fortnite<\/a><\/p>\n

Epic Games<\/strong> had previously announced that Neymar Jr<\/strong> would be arriving in Fortnite<\/strong>, and now we know when to expect him in-game.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Back in March, Epic Games outlined that Brazilian footballer and Paris Saint-Germain forward Neymar Jr. would be arriving in-game as part of the battle royale’s Chapter 2, Season 6,<\/a> but didn’t give us much more information than that.<\/p>\n

Now, the developer has revealed that Neymar Jr is arriving in the multiplayer game on April 27, and he’ll arrive in-game with four different skins: two based on football jerseys, and two that look like they belong in a Power Rangers spin-off.<\/p>\n

Anyone that purchased the Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 6 season pass will have access to the Neymar cosmetics, shown in the embedded video above, but you’ll have to complete some challenges in order to unlock the items.<\/p>\n

“For completing certain amounts of Chapter 2 Season 6 Epic Quests, you’ll unlock even more items from his Set,” says Epic in a press release<\/a>. “You’ll also unlock the Exhibition version of the Neymar Jr Outfit and other items, based on his familiar uniform of yellow, blue, and green inspired by the Brazil national football team.”<\/p>\n

Also, you’ll be able to visit Creative mode for a player-made Welcome Hub and Island inspired by Neymar Jr’s arrival.<\/p>\n

Neymar Jr’s arrival will be joined by some bonus challenges you’ll be able to complete, too – you can see what they are (and what they unlock) below.<\/p>\n
