The Weeknd and ‘Fortnite’ Continue Their Partnership With Merch Collab
Featuring apparel and a collectible figurine.
Earlier this month, the trailer surfaced for the new partnership between The Weeknd and Fortnite for its new game. Entitled, Fortnite Festival, the creation is the first music-based experience in the game – with The Weeknd serving as its debut headliner. So to further cement the new partnership, The Weeknd and Fortnite have revealed a merchandise collaboration.
Comprising the collection is a lineup of casual pieces like a bomber jacket, hoodies, tees, cut-off tees and accessories. Although all of the apparel pieces appear in black, they are livened by a lineup of multicolored graphic designs. With them, you’ll find a blend of The Weekend’s signature style and design elements fused with Fortnite’s gaming/virtual touch. Rounding out the apparel is a 5-panel snapback hat and a camo foam trucket hat.
Aside from wearables, the collaboration’s standout item is a collectible action figure. Standing at 6.5 inches tall, the figure is based on The Weeknd’s in-game outfit, which is derived from his After Hours style. Additionally, the action figure comes with removable glasses, XO back bling and an axe-opickaxe.
Take a look at the new items in the gallery above. The new The Weeknd x Fortnite collaboration is available now on the artist’s XO website.
