Fortnite Adds ‘The Odyssey’ Skins for Odysseus and Agamemnon

Variety · 4 weeks ago

Epic Games has added playable skins for Odysseus and Agamemnon to Fortnite, tying in with Christopher Nolan's upcoming film "The Odyssey." The Odysseus outfit reflects Matt Damon's portrayal of the character, while the Agamemnon skin is modelled on Benny Safdie's role, giving fans of the film a way to engage with it through the popular video game ahead of its cinema release.

Players could earn the Odysseus Outfit by competing in the Solo Odyssey Cup across Battle Royale and Zero Build modes, with the challenge ending on 16 July. The outfit includes an alternate helmeted style, a bow back bling and a sword pickaxe, while Agamemnon comes with a shield back bling and matching pickaxe. Those who miss the Cup can buy the Odysseus skin directly from the item shop from 17 July at 8pm ET, timed to coincide with the film's theatrical release. "The Odyssey," Nolan's 13th feature, also stars Anne Hathaway, Tom Holland, Robert Pattinson, Zendaya and Charlize Theron, and is distributed by Universal Pictures.
