Any gamer who is even remotely familiar withFortniteis aware of the title’s penchant for crossover skins. The free-to-play title has brought in skins from dozens of outside franchises across all mediums, including video games, films, novels, comics, and even real-life people.Fortnite’s dominant trend continues, this time adding Fennec Shand and Krrsantan from the Disney+ seriesThe Book of Boba Fett.
TheStar Warsskin announcement comes less than 24 hours after the reveal of the latestCreative Mayhem event called Love is in the Air. The Valentine’s Day-themed event has players submitting their best deathrun times in order to qualify for a team tournament under their favoriteFortnitecreator. While love certainly isn’t in the air for Fennec or Krrsantan, their loyalty to Boba is.

Detailed in a post on the officialFortnitewebsite, Fennec Shand and Krrsantan are available in the item shop beginning today. Fennec’s outfit comes with the Mythosaur Back Bling, which manyStar Warsfans will recognize as a symbol of the Mandalorians. Also available for the sniper assassin is Fennec’s Ship Glider and the This is The Way Emote, which sees Fennec pull out a holoprojector with a message from Din Djarin. The intimidating black-furred gladiator-turned-bounty hunter Wookiee Krrsantan comes with the Hutt Clan Symbol Back Bling, and everything can be purchased together in the Bounty Hunter Bundle.
In addition to the two newStar Warsfaces coming to the game,Fortnitehas re-added Boba Fettand his accompanying accessories. The infamous bounty hunter was first added around the premiere ofThe Book of Boba Fett, and has now become available again the week of the series' final episode. Returning accessories include the Z-6 Jetpack Back Bling (which is included with the Outfit), Gaffi Stick Pickaxe, Boba Fett’s Starship Glider, and Targeting Computer Online Emote. Players can buy these items individually or together through the Boba Fett Bundle.
WhileThe Book of Boba Fett’s characters are sure to become fan-favorites, it isn’t the only Disney+ show to have recently crossed over intoFortnite.Clint Barton and Kate Bishop fromHawkeyehave also made it into the game, sporting their purple-and-black matching suits from the end of the series. The archery duo comes with an arsenal of bow-and-arrow-themed accessories, including character-specific back bling quivers and the Aerial Archer Glider, which looks like a massive vertical bow.
Fennec Shand and Krrsantan, like mostStar Warsskins inFortnite, are sure to quickly become widespread in the near future. AlthoughFortnitemay seem to have an overwhelming amount of Disney-owned skins betweenStar Warsand Marvel, there is hope for new and different IP to enter the fray. A recentFortnitesurvey mentionsDestinycharacters, so players may have another major franchise on the cusp of dropping in.
Fortniteis free-to-play on PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
