Even if Epic Games doesn't actively advertise it, Fortnite is the closest game on the market to achieving a true metaverse. In this realm of unending battles and iconic character skins, it constantly welcomes new challengers from a land steeped in lore and supernatural flair.
As part of its latest crossover, Ciri and Yennefer of The Witcher series are about to make their Fortnite debut, joining Geralt who has been a part of the Fortnite world for a few seasons now. This anticipated addition is a synergy of two behemoth franchises, just in time for the launch of The Witcher season 3 on Netflix.
Although their roots are in the world of The Witcher, the upcoming Ciri and Yennefer skins in Fortnite draw more from their video game counterparts than their Netflix incarnations. There's a particular fidelity to the characters as they were in The Witcher 3, evoking a sense of nostalgia for players who've traversed the Continent with these characters. As for their release date, you can expect these fantasy icons to hit the Fortnite store on Friday, June 23, 2023, at 7 AM ET, as confirmed by Epic Games.
If you're a fan of the White Wolf and his companions, the opportunity to play as these revered characters is irresistible. Ciri, the Lady of Space and Time, brings with her two Witcher swords and a Basilisk glider. This warrior woman's bundle also includes a back bling named Zireal, which adds a touch of fantasy to your Fortnite experience.
