Addison Rae is officially part of the Fortnite universe. The singer and social media star launched two new skins in the game today, August 6, inspired by her“Fame Is A Gun”music video and her“The Fame And Glory”tour. The collaboration was teased last month, and fans have been waiting ever since to see how it would turn out.
Each skin costs 1,500 V-Bucks, which is roughly fifteen dollars in real money. Accessories like back blings and pickaxes range from 400 to 800 V-Bucks, so you can mix and match depending on your budget. The drop also includes jam tracks for her songs“Diet Pepsi”and“Fame Is A Gun,”plus new emotes. Rae told Teen Vogue she’s excited to join other pop stars like Billie Eilish and Sabrina Carpenter in the game. She also mentioned that she used to play Fortnite in high school and that her little brothers are big fans.
What makes this collab feel personal is the attention to detail. Rae said she sent ten“odd selfies”to the game developers to make sure the character looked exactly like her. She noted that the team at Epic Games really cared about building out every little piece of her in the game. It’s that level of care that turns a simple crossover into something fans will remember. So, is a digital Addison Rae worth the V-Bucks? That’s up to you, but for her fans, this one feels special. Would you spend the money on a Fortnite skin for your favorite artist?
