Holy mackerel! Everyone's favorite summer obsessions are colliding. (No, not Mamma Mia! Here We Go Againand Hereditary. But, I'm here for that too.) In honor of Discovery's annual ode to aquatic nightmares, Fortnite is providing players with new Shark Week-themed items and a fishing-inspired emote. Prior to Shark Week's Sunday premiere, Epic Games promoted the new features on Twitter. And they're pretty much the most Fortnite things ever. The update offers three oceanic costumes and a harvesting tool. Available through the in-game store, the outfits include "Chomp Sr." and "Shark Fin" for 2,000 V-Bucks each, as well as "Snorkel Ops" priced at 1,200 V-Bucks. The "Chomp Jr." harvesting tool is available for 1,500 V-Bucks. Sadly, as per usual, the new skin options do not come with any explicit game advantages. The new emote is super goofy (and looks a lot like my dad at weddings), but may be a pretty cute addition to your avatar's personality. "On the Hook" is available for 500 V-Bucks. Discovery's Shark Weekruns July 22 to July 30 and features plenty of special guests this time around—including professional badass Ronda Rousey and the (totally on-brand) cast of ABC's Shark Tank. So get ready to flop on your couch with your iPhone or Nintendo Switch in hand. Cause this week is going to be jaw-some. TopicsFortniteGamingTweet may have been deleted
