KAWS is officially receiving the Fortnite treatment.

As part of Fortnite‘s Halloween event, Fornitemares, Epic Games is unveiling a series of special cards that provide hints on upcoming skins on a weekly basis. After revealing four cards last week, Fortnite has presented six cards for round two, one of which dons KAWS’ familiar iconography.

Details of what the in-game collaboration will look like have not yet been revealed; however, later this week, the Fortnitemares card will be flipped to reveal the official KAWS Fortnite skin. Aside from the KAWS crossover, five other cards, which appear to front a variety of creatures, faces and pickaxes, will be flipped this week.

Ahead of their reveal, Epic shared a cryptic hint about what to expect from this hand: “Week 2 is packed with new cards for the flipping — six in fact. Like last time, there’s no pattern as to when they’ll flip over, but try using the hints to chew on what they’ll show.”

Last week, the gamer introduced four Fortnitemares skins — Frankenstein’s Monster, Rick Grimes, Skeletara and Curdle Scream Leader — each of which is now available in the Item Shop. Fornite‘s KAWS skin, alongside this round’s remaining five cards, will be available in the Item Shop later this week.

Elsewhere, Logitech G has partnered with Riot Games for a League of Legends gaming collection.
