Fortnite has been on a tear lately in adding characters from other major games and movies, and it doesn’t look to be slowing down any time soon. This morning PlayStation announced that Aloy, from Horizon Zero Dawn, will be dropping into Fortnite later this week.
Outcaster, seeker, and champion, Aloy enters the fray alongside familiar mementos of her Horizon Zero Dawn adventure. In addition to the Aloy Outfit, all these items will be available for purchase in the Item Shop starting April 15, 2021.
Though Blaze may not be a crafting resource on the Island, you can still use it for show via the Blaze Canister Back Bling. Also, glide into battle with the Glinthawk Glider and strike objects with the Aloy’s Spear Pickaxe. Using the Heart-rizon Emote, express yourself with the Focus effect, and inspired by the Shield-Weaver armor, adorn your weapons and vehicles with the Shield-Weaver Wrap.
All items in the Horizon Zero Dawn Bundle will be available individually, but the Bundle includes the Aloy the Skywatcher Loading Screen as an added bonus. Additionally, anyone who owns the Aloy Outfit and plays Fortnite on their PlayStation 5 will unlock the Ice Hunter Aloy Style, based on the Banuk Ice Hunter outfit from Horizon Zero Dawn.
Our Take
Say what you will, but Fortnite continues to broaden its horizons (pun intended) by adding meaningful content for fans and fun ways to interact with friends. As big Horizon Zero Dawn fans, we certainly approve of this!
