Leaked Fortnite Pirates of the Caribbean crossover brings new skins, map changes & unvaulted items
DisneyThe Fortnite x Pirates of the Caribbean crossover is set to go live during Chapter 5 Season 3 and will introduce new items, map changes, and highly-anticipated cosmetics.
So, here’s everything that you can expect once the crossover goes live.
Pirates of the Caribbean crossover release date
The Fortnite x Pirates of the Caribbean collaboration will arrive on July 19, 2024, as revealed by Epic Games after accidentally releasing the Cursed Sails event pass early.
While the event pass was pulled from the Item Shop, players who’ve already purchased it will be able to retain it but won’t be able to progress through the levels until it goes live on the scheduled date.
Leaked map changes
As noticed in the leaks, the Pirates of the Caribbean event will get its dedicated Landmark once the event goes live. This Landmark will include the iconic Black Pearl ship along with a pier featuring Davy Jones’ flag at the center of the Island.
Apart from the Black Pearl, masts of sunken ships can also be seen in the area. The leaks also suggest that the Captain Barbossa NPC will be present at this Landmark.
All skins coming to Fortnite in the event
- Cursed Jack Sparrow skin (purchase and level up the Event Pass to get this skin)
- Elizabeth Swann (Item Shop purchase)
- Davy Jones (Item Shop purchase)
- Captain Barbossa (Item Shop purchase)
While Epic Games accidentally confirmed the Jack Sparrow skin for the event, there are three other skins that you will be able to collect during this event.
Apart from the Jack Sparrow and the Cursed Jack Sparrow, Epic Games are yet to confirm the existence of the three remaining skins. It’s unclear how the skins have been priced either, but it’s believed that they’ll be added to the Item Shop once the crossover goes live.
Leaked items & features
According to leaks, the Flintlock Pistol, Treasure Map, and Pirate Cannon will be unvaulted once the collaboration goes live, and a new Mythic will arrive on the Island.
This new item is a ghost pirate ship players can ride to do damage to enemies, vehicles, and structures. Leaked footage shows the item in action, but it’s likely Epic will make some changes to it before adding it to this season’s pool.
Apart from the Battle Royale, it’s also been suggested that a new map called The Pirate Adventure will be added to the Rocket Racing mode too. We’ll make sure to update this article once we know more about what’s coming.
A lot of other crossovers, including the one with Fall Guys and new Jujutsu Kaisen characters will also be going live in the game soon. Apart from that, the T-60 Power Armor and the Nuka-Cola from Fallout are currently available in the game.
