The next challengers entering the Fortnite arena will be Street Fighter’s Cammy and Guile, and they’ll each have alternate skins along with unique backblings for the iconic fighting game characters.
Everyday it looks like no one is safe from the Fortnite metaverse. Epic Games teased that new Street Fighter contestants would be coming to the battle royale, and revealed their hand shortly after.
Now, players will see two more Capcom characters in the Fortnite mere months after Ryu and Chun-Li made their debuts early in 2021.
The two are already getting a ton of fanfare from people excited for the Chapter 2 Season 7 releases, and they won’t have to wait long to add them to their collection.
Fortnite’s Guile and Cammy release date
Guile and Cammy are going to be the next two cosmetics we’ll see in the Item Shop on August 7 at 5 PM PST / 8 PM EST.
Guile’s skin will have his classic green fatigues that many will remember from the Street Fighter II days, while also having the ‘Glistening Guile Variant’ and ‘K.O. Backbling.’
Meanwhile, Cammy will have an altered design to her classic outfit from Street Fighter to make it Fortnite-ready. Along with the skin, players can also equip the Borealis Backer Back Bling and Tactical Cammy Variant if they go in on the bundle.
