Kim Kardashian is coming to Fortnite, with multiple skins featuring the likeness of the reality star set to be released on 13 December. The collaboration will heavily feature outfits inspired by Kardashian’s SKIMS brand, including tight bodysuits of many colours, and an outfit with a fur coat and gym wear.

What to know about Kim Kardashian’s arrival in Fortnite
While the news is unexpected, it’s not as surprising as might first appear. Kardashian is no stranger to the world of gaming, having previously had her very own, highly successful mobile game – Kim Kardashion: Hollywood – which survived a ten-year stint before a 2024 shut down.
Epic Games has also spent the last few years collaborating with an array of celebrities for in-game appearances, including musical artists like Billie Eilish, Gorillaz, Bruno Mars, Eminem, and Ariana Grande. As you roam the game’s many modes, it’s unsurprising to run into avatars of any of these stars.
Since Fortnite has become the monolith it is, countless names have joined the game. Recently, it even attracted the attention of director Quentin Tarantino, who announced a ‘lost’ Kill Bill short built within Fortnite. (Around the time he was promoting the short, Tarantino also made mean, disparaging comments about Paul Dano, Owen Wilson, and Matthew Lillard which have caused a loud uproar against the director.)
Kardashian collaborating with Fortnite, and particularly using the game to promote SKIMS, feels like a natural next step. And while Kardashian does have her critics, and her appearance will likely spark discourse amongst players, she has plenty of younger fans that will appreciate the collab.

For now, we know the Kim Kardashian collaboration will include SKIMS skins in grey, beige, silver, pink, plum, and heather blue. Players will also be able to customise their Kim Kardashian avatar with various accessories, including sunglasses, and a white wig.
There will also be the gym wear and fur coat skin, which appears to be an all-in-one ensemble.
Beyond these pieces, we’re also getting a purse accessory, an emote inspired by Kardashian’s controversial ‘Break the Internet’ champagne-on-arse photo shoot (although the champagne is on her foot here), a ring light and phone back bling, and a private jet glider.
The Fortnite website also currently refers to a ‘Kim Kardashian Cup‘ which suggests there’ll be a sponsored Battle Royale event taking place at some point, with this offering rewards based on competitive rankings.
For now, exact details of everything on the way haven’t been released, but we expect we’ll hear more news over the weekend.
Also on ScreenHub: Bits & Bops is out now, and absolutely delightful
Australian-made rhythm game Bits & Bops is available now, thanks to a surprise release announced during Wholesome Snack 2025. After several years in development, and an array of fantastic showings at PAX Aus, SXSW Sydney, and other major game showcases, you can finally get your hands on all its cosy, bite-sized rhythm puzzles. And you really should make time for this game.
Bits & Bops takes a brain-tickling approach to puzzling, with each of its colourful mini-games centred around the idea of flow. You’re presented with a small scenario – a cat is taking photos, you’re hammering screws, bears are going skating, birds are communicating, robots are hip-hop dancing or crocodiles need feeding. Then you must control the movement, speed and bounce of these actions by tapping or clicking at just the right moment.
