Fortnite to have Suicide Squad event that includes Bloodsport skin

Bloodsport is coming to Fortnite. The Suicide Squad sharpshooter’s look within the sport was introduced on Wednesday by Bloodsport himself, actor Idris Elba. The Suicide Squad director James Gunn initially tweeted a video concerning the crossover.

Within the video, we get a short glimpse of Bloodsport wreaking havoc on the Fortnite island, taking ziplines, and firing off rocket launchers — which definitely appears to suit his vibe from the trailers. In keeping with Elba, Bloodsport is coming to the island quickly; the video ends with a tease saying that we’ll get extra details about The Suicide Squad’s tie-in with Fortnite someday on Thursday.

This isn’t the primary time that DC Comics heroes have made their technique to the island. Batman and his rogues’ gallery have proven up previously, together with a couple of different DC heroes and villains. Hopefully this new Suicide Squad occasion will embrace a couple of extra of the upcoming film’s characters as nicely.

This story might be up to date when Epic and Warner Bros. reveal extra concerning the collaboration on Thursday. The Suicide Squad might be launched in theaters and on HBO Max on Aug. 6.
