News | Fortnite is getting skins from Avatar: The Last Airbender today

Fortnite today introduces three character skins from Avatar: The Last Airbender. In addition, starting Friday, April 12, players can participate in an event based on the popular cartoon, called Avatar: Elements.

Epic Games announced this news via a trailer on X. The skins that will be available in the item shop from today are those of Katara, Zuko and Toph. The trailer also shows a short clip in which the main character Aang – aka the Avatar – is frozen in a large ice lump together with his flying bison Appa. In all likelihood, the Avatar’s skin will be available via the event’s mini-battle pass, which starts on Friday.

The arrival of the Avatar: The Last Airbender event in Fortnite had already been leaked. Like other Fortnite crossover events, Avatar: Elements will likely last two to three weeks. During the event, players can complete missions related to the characters and various elements of the cartoon series. This allows various cosmetic items, including an extra skin, to be unlocked.

It is currently unclear whether Sokka will also be part of Avatar: Elements. Katara’s brother, known for his boomerang, is actually the only character from the well-known ‘Team Avatar’ that has not yet been shown by Epic Games.

The upcoming event is not the first crossover that Fortnite has had with the Avatar world. A Korra skin previously came to the game via the second season of Chapter 5: Myth & Mortals. Korra is the main character of the spin-off series The Legend of Korra.

News | New Fortnite season starts off with classic map and items

The new Fortnite season, which is called 'season OG' and returns to the original map, started this morning.

The season has already been rumored and last week it was officially confirmed that this season will include the map from Chapter 1, Season 5. The season only lasts a month and there are only fifty tiers in the battle pass. Additionally, the island will change with each update to mimic a different season from Chapter 1.

The return to the original version of the island also means players can visit iconic locations such as Titled Towers and Frosty Flights. In addition, classic items, weapons and vehicles return, such as the Assault Rifle, Pump Shotgun and shopping carts.

The skins that people can unlock are combinations between previous favorite Fortnite skins. For example, Peely the banana is combined with ice cream mascot Lil’ Whip, resulting in a new skin called Lil’ Split. More information about the new season can be found on the official website.

News | Borderlands 3 is now free to claim via Epic Games Store

People can now claim Borderlands 3 for free through the Epic Games Store.

The game has been available for free from the Epic Games Store since yesterday and will remain available until May 26. It’s the first of “four big blockbuster games” to be offered for free through Epic Games Store over the next few weeks. Which other games will become available for free is still a secret.

At this time, the Mega Sale 2022 has also started on the Epic Games Store. More than 1,600 games and expansions are available for purchase with up to 75 percent off. Everyone will also receive a coupon for a 25 percent discount. The promotion runs until June 16.

Borderlands 3 received a 9,0 on GamersInfuzed “As progressive as Borderlands 2 was, so traditional is the sequel. At a time when the loot shooter consists of open online worlds with a constant flow of content thanks to titles like The Division, Borderlands 3 remains close to the roots of the franchise, which is totally fine because the game is a fantastic cooperative loot shooter and a delightful parody of stream culture.”
