Fortnite is no stranger to crossovers within its battle royale game mode; there are different 'Series' that cater to crossovers. These Series have a unique background to go along with their set, such as the Marvel Series having a red background. Gaming Legends is one of the several different Series in Fortnite and one that harbors a handful of special crossover characters from different video game titles.
There are over thirty outfits within the Gaming Legends Series, and that number is still rising. Some of the skins that players can collect as part of this Series are, in a way, better than others; that is true based on the skin's rarity, set, or magnificent design and work.
Along with the release of Goat Simulator 3, Fortnite included a brand-new outfit for players to buy to celebrate the said release. This outfit was A Goat.
Quite Literally, this skin that players could have purchased from the item shop was a simple goat but in a more human-like stance. The goat wore clothes and even had hands, which made it a bit disturbing. A Goat didn't have an entire set that players could purchase, but the costume itself has been woven into the hearts of many.
Chun-Li has been a large hit with the Fortnite community following the set's release, which also included the famous Street Fighter character, Ryu. The two were added to the item shop as part of Jonesy's mission to collect the world's best fighters and bounty hunters.
Chun-Li has two unique styles that players can switch between with her, along with a complete set with which players can match their entire locker with. Chun-Li has, luckily, popped in and out of the item shop over the years, meaning players should expect the set to arrive at some point along the line once more.
Kratos is one of the most popular video game characters out there in the gaming world, especially within the realm of PlayStation. As one of the mascots for PlayStation, Kratos has been the main protagonist in some of the best-selling games for the console, such as God of War (2018).
Kratos has two different styles in Fortnite, one of which decks the god-killer out in armor. Kratos can be completed with his Leviathan Axe as a harvesting tool, Mimir as a back-bling, and his Guardian Shield as a glider.
Just as Kratos resembles PlayStation as a whole, Master Chief is the face of the Xbox console. Master Chief has reprised his protagonist role throughout the Halo franchise, spanning over six games. The unique hero has fought against armies, making him a god of war in his own sense.
In Fortnite, players can purchase the Master Chief Set, which comes with Master Chief, the Battle Legend back-bling, a Lil' Warthog emote, the Gravity Hammer harvesting tool, and UNSC Pelican as a glider. Master Chief also has a second style, in which turns his armor to a matte black color.
Arguably the most notable face in the world of The Elder Scrolls is a Nord warrior fitted out with their respective armor. This outfit represents just that.
Most likely originating from Skyrim due to the fact that the character is a Nord with Nordic armor, players could find this Nord Warrior outfit in the item shop with a bundle. The Nord Warrior set can be completed with the Sigil of the Alliance War back-bling, an Ebonheart Battleaxe harvesting tool, and a Nord Armor weapon wrap.
On March 17th, 2023, the world lost a legendary actor/voice actor, Lance Reddick. Reddick voiced a legendary role in Destiny: Commander Zavala. Commander Zavala is one of the most iconic personalities throughout all of Destiny 1 and Destiny 2, as he has led his army and allies to battle it out with Earth's enemies.
Commander Zavala is a part of the Legends of Light and Dark set in Fortnite, but fans can purchase his outfit separately. In the Legends of Light and Dark set, players can obtain different locker cosmetics to compete Zavala's set.
Jinx, who is a character in League of Legends, was also the main protagonist in the hit Netflix show Arcane. Arcane wasn't just known for its incredible story development and character progression, but it also became popular for its very unique art style.
This art style is also used for Jinx's own Fortnite Gaming Legends skin, which comes in the Arcane: League of Legends set that appears in the item shop from time to time. Jinx also has her Dream Monkey as a back-bling, the Pow Pow Crusher as a harvesting tool, Jinxed as a spray emote, and the instrumental to the Playground song as background music.
With the release of Alan Wake 2, a contender for Game of the Year 2023, Fortnite released an Alan Wake outfit that players could purchase in the item shop. The Alan Wake skin came with the Alan Wake Bundle, which costs 1,800 V-Bucks.
Alan Wake's Fortnite outfit appears as he does in Alan Wake 2, complete with a scruffy face and formal attire. Alan Wake's cosmetic set is complete with Alan's Messenger bag as a backs-bling, the Dark Place Lamp as a harvesting tool (which lights up when used), and the Dark Place weapon wrap to change the appearance of various guns and such.
There have been few Gaming Legends outfits that have been locked to previous Battle Passes in the past, but the ones that were are incredible outfits that new players will never be able to obtain. Geralt of Rivia is one of those costumes. Geralt was locked to the Chapter 4: Season 1 Battle Pass, which turned the Fortnite island into a medieval-like experience.
Geralt had an entire set that fans could unlock. This set was completed with the Witcher's Steel and Silver Swords, the Inflate-A-Roach glider, Weapons of the Witcher back-bling, the Witcher's Dawn weapon wrap, and the Igni Sign emote.
Following the release of Borderlands 3, Fortnite added a Borderlands bundle in the item shop for a very limited time. Such a limited time, in fact, that it has yet to be seen since its second appearance in the middle of 2020. The Psycho Bandit outfit was the sole skin that players could obtain from this bundle, named the Psycho Bundle.
The Psycho Bandit costume mimicked Borderlands' iconic art style. The Psycho Bandit locker set could be completed with the Claptrap back-bling, Psycho Buzz Axes harvesting tool, the Diamond Pony glider, the Mayhem weapon wrap, and a couple of exclusive spray emotes.
