Epic Games, the driving force behind Fortnite, has recently announced yet another incredible addition to the Fortnite Item Shop. If you missed it, just over a week ago, we saw Assassin’s Creed loot land in the Item Shop. This time, however, it’s Marvel’s nighttime knockout, Moon Knight, who’s getting the Fortnite treatment.
Moon Knight is the titular protagonist of Marvel’s newest series of the same name. Currently streaming on Disney+, the show has been labeled as chaotic and often unpredictable. That is exactly how the news of Moon Night being made available in the Item Shop is hitting us loyal fans; it’s chaotic to be getting new toys to play with, and Moon Knight was certainly an unpredictable addition unless you’ve been following the predictions and leaks surrounding his arrival that have been circulating since the beginning of the month.
Moon Knight, also known as the Fist of Khonshu, is not the only skin joining the Fortnite universe, though, like Marvel, and Epic Games, have each explained on their respective social media platforms:
‘Enacting justice for those traveling at night, Moon Knight is available now in the Fortnite Item Shop! This fist of Khonshu is willing to enact justice whether day or night on the Island, but for those a little more suave, you can switch to the Mr. Knight Style in the Locker.’
But that’s not all: ‘Moon Knight is seldom seen without his cape, so included with his Outfit is the Moon Knight’s Cloak Back Bling. And for your close-quarters combat, the Crescent Darts Pickaxe is in the Shop as well.’
All things considered, we’re definitely being spoiled for choice with this latest addition to the Fortnite family. We can’t wait to try Mr. Knight’s Crescent Darts Pickaxe out for ourselves.
