This week, it's time to introduce you to Fortnite's Gears of War Crossover Episode. Here's everything there is to know about Kait Diaz' Fortnite Skin.
More and more characters from television shows, movies and other games have been appearing in Fortnite over the years. To make sure that you don't lose track of who these characters are, we're here to keep you up to date each and every week.
This week, we're diving into the Gears of War Universe in our next edition of this weekly crossover series. This crossover is pretty darn-well epic, because Epic Games are joining forces with Gears of War's Kait Diaz. Hyped?
Fortnite's New Kait Diaz Skin
For those of you who don't know who she is, Corporal Kait Diaz is a former misfit, turned COG Soldier in the Gears of War franchise. She is one of the main characters in Gears of War 4 and a main protagonist (and playable character) in Gears of War 5.
Daughter of Gabriel Diaz and Reyna Torres, as well as granddaughter of Queen Myrrah, Kait Diaz is the heir to the Locust Horde and The Swarm. She is voiced by Laura Bailey, who is known for her work in Marvel's Spider-Man, Injustice 2 and Uncharted.
Together with Marcus Fenix, Kait Diaz faces a new battle on the Fortnite Island as a member of the Gaming Legends series.
How to Get the Kait Diaz Skin in Fortnite
You can pick up the Kait Diaz skin from time to time in the Fortnite Item Shop, where it can exclusively be purchased. She was added to the game way back in December 9, 2021 as part of the Gaming Legends series in Fortnite Chapter 3, Season 1.
How Much Does the Kait Diaz Skin Cost in Fortnite?
The Kait Diaz skin is available in the Item Store for 1500 V-Bucks by herself, or bundles with Marcus Fenix for 2000 V-Bucks. The bundle is called the "Kait & Marcus Package" and includes a bunch of other cosmetics as well (as does the base Kait Diaz package).
What Cosmetics are Included in the Delta One Set?
Kait Diaz is part of the Delta One Set in Fortnite. It includes the following cosmetics:
Kait Diaz's Outfit
An outsider who became a soldier in the KOR Army, and a member of Delta-One.
She once fought against the Coalition of Ordinary Governments, but is now part of their army. You can choose between her standard and her Winter Orange style.
Marcus Fenix's Outfit
Legendary hero of the Pendulum and Locust Wars, and brought out of retirement by his son.
Sergeant Marcus Michael Fenix is a retired Gear soldier in the Army of the Coalition of Law and Order. A legendary war hero, Marcus served with distinction in the Pendulum Wars, earning him the Embry Star, the COG's highest military award, for his actions during the Battle of Aspho Fields. He is available separately in the Fortnite Item Shop for 1500 V-Bucks.
Reyna's Pendant Back Bling
A family heirloom with mysterious origins.
This back bling is sold together with the "Kait Diaz" outfit. Its origin is not yet clear, maybe it hides a special secret?
Sonic Resonator Back Bling
Designed by the Coalition of Ordinary Governments to explore the underground tunnels of Sera.
This back bling is sold together with the "Marcus Fenix" outfit. It will also help you with your investigations.
Butcher's Pickaxe
With this blade, rock worm meat can be chopped up as easily as the KOR.
It is not to be trifled with. If your enemies are smart, they'd rather run away from you. The pickaxe is available in the Item Store for 500 V-Bucks.
Sledgehammer Pickaxe
Lure the Seeders to the surface!
This tough piece is also available in the Item Store for 500 V-Bucks. It's just looks nasty!
Butterfly Mace Pickaxe
Fragments of Locust Tanks are attached to a rotating rod. You can even break trees with this motherforker!
With this selection of weapons, there is literally something for everyone! How about the Butterfly Mace? You can pick it up for 800 V-Bucks.
Skiff Glider
A fast, wind-powered land vehicle that offers no protection from the elements. Nifty?
This bad-boy normally tends to drive around on land. In Fortnite, however, we make an exception and sail through the skies. You can also get this fancy piece for 800 V-Bucks.
Knife Play Emote
Show off your bladed weapons!
Perfect for scaring your enemies, but make sure the blade doesn't slip out of your hand. The emote is available for 300 V-Bucks in the Item Store.
Breakthrough Spray
And to immortalize yourself, as always, there's a nice little spray so that you can leave your mark on the island.
We'll be back next week in our Fortnite Skin Showcase series with another cool collaboration. Until then, though, why not check out a few of their previous crossover episodes. Perhaps some Master Chief or Lara Croft skins? Sounds good, doesn't it?
