Fortnitehas crossed over with dozens of games, movies, shows, and more over the past several years. Whether it’sGod of War,Halo,League of Legends,Street Fighter,Assassin’s Creed,Resident Evil,Tomb Raider, orBorderlands, if there’s a major game franchise thenFortnitewants a crossover with it. There’s one virally successful game thatFortnitefans have been demanding a crossover with for some time now that hasn’t happened yet, though. That appears to be changing soon, though.Among Uswill be coming toFortnite.
The latest weekly update forFortnitehas brought with it a variety of new files for dataminers to dig through. Within those files is confirmation that Epic Games will soon be releasingAmong Uscosmetics for its battle royale. In fact, it’s available now. Two specific cosmetics have been revealed, including a Crewmate backpack and the Distraction Dance emote. While it may not be as robust of anAmong Uscollaboration withFortniteas some fans may have wanted, it’s better than nothing.

While some may have hoped that anAmong Uscollaboration would be included with theseasonalFortnitebattle pass, that doesn’t appear to be the case. TheAmong Uscosmetics don’t appear to be traditional premium cosmetics either, however, though they will come at a premium. To unlock theAmong Uscosmetics,Fortniteplayers will have to make an “Among Useligible purchase” through the Epic Games Store.
Eligible purchases include anyAmong Us-related item in the Epic Games Store. That includes theAmong Usbase game, which is currently available for $4.99, or any ofAmong Us' premium Stars currency purchases. Stars can be purchased at values including $4.99, $9.99, $24.99, or even as low as $1.99. It’s confirmed that the $1.99 Stars purchase will unlock both the Crewmate Back Bling and Distraction Dance Emote inFortnite.
To reiterate, these twoFortnitexAmong Uscollaboration cosmetics are in-game and available now. It may seem odd that Epic Games hasn’t formally announced the collaboration or otherwise made a big deal of it, but the collaboration has been confirmed via theEpic Games Store.
Unfortunately, that means thatFortniteplayers on console have no straightforward method of purchasing theAmong Uscosmetics. The deal is limited to users with an Epic Games Store account making anAmong Us-related purchase. The deal will remain available until June 27, 2025, though, soFortniteplayersshould have plenty of time to set up their Epic Games Store accounts if they don’t have one.
Fortniteis available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and mobile devices.
