Fortnite Teases Collaboration With NASCAR

Fortnite has teased a collaboration with NASCAR, the renowned auto racing sanctioning and operating company.

A recent post from the Fortnite Competitive account suggests that a partnership with NASCAR and the Fortnite Championship Series could be in the works.

While the post doesn’t provide many details about the exact nature of the collaboration, it’s clear NASCAR will play some role in promoting the upcoming Fortnite Global Championship. Fans are speculating in the replies, but the details are still under wraps.

One popular theory is that this partnership might tie into Fortnite’s Rocket Racing mode. As Game Rant highlights, fans are actively discussing in the replies what this collaboration could involve.

Some are even suggesting that NASCAR-themed custom cars could make their way into Rocket Racing’s shop, where players can purchase various vehicles. This connection makes sense, given the racing theme.

However, it’s important to note that the announcement made by Fortnite Competitive specifically relates to the Global Championship event. This suggests that the collaboration with NASCAR may be more focused on esports than on in-game items.

The Fortnite Global Championship is set to feature top players from previous tournament brackets battling it out to claim the ultimate title. This gives us enough of a hint that NASCAR’s involvement might have an esports-centric angle, potentially a sponsorship for the event rather than introducing purchasable in-game items like past collaborations.

Fortnite is no stranger to sports-related partnerships. Recently, the Epic Games title collaborated with the NFL, introducing skins based on Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and basketball legend LeBron James.

As for the current state of the game, Fortnite has plenty going on in Chapter 5 Season 4. Several Marvel characters, including Mysterio, Doctor Doom, and Emma Frost, have entered the Fortnite universe.

Doctor Doom is available as an unlockable character, and players can find his gauntlets in the game. For a guide on how to obtain them, head over to Game Rant for detailed instructions.
