Footie legend Sir David Beckham is the latest star to join the Fortnite Icon Series. The former international football star and co-owner of Inter Miami FC will be kicking off in the game on Friday, July 17th at 8PM ET (that’s 1AM on the 18th for the Brits).
Mr Posh Spice himself had this to say about his appearance “Fortnite creates new and exciting ways to connect with fans around the world. It’s been great working with them to create something that celebrates my career on and off the pitch.”
The item shop will also have the following themed items available.
- David Beckham Outfit — This reactive, game-ready look features tattoos that glow gold on every elimination. It includes a shirtless alt Style and an elim-reactive Back Bling (Beckham’s Number) and a LEGO Minifig variant.
- Club Owner David Beckham Outfit — The game is yours in this dapper off-pitch look that comes with an Emote-reactive and damage-reactive Back Bling (Club Crest) and a LEGO Minifig variant.
- Go for the goal with Beckham’s Shot Emote.
- Meteor Baller Pickaxe gets you the perfect strike, plus Impact-reactive and the Number Seven Scythe Pickaxe with true precision. Weak point-reactive.
On Friday, July 17th, footie and Fortnite fans will be able to compete in the Trios Battle Royale or Trios Zero Build David Beckham Icon Cup. The top performers in each region will win the Club Owner David Beckham outfit, and the top finishers overall will win the complete bundle. You can get all of the details on that here.
Hopefully, playing as David Beckham in Fortnite will be more fun than watching England play in the World Cup semi-final!
