"Fortnite" is having a Bloodsport skin, and he is a new character that joined DC's 2021 "Suicide Squad," with director James Gunn, actor Idris Elba, and Epic Games confirming. It was revealed by a promotional video made by Elba and posted by Gunn, showing the first look of the character in the Battle Royale. The teaser also suggested that Idris Elba will be dubbing the character in-game.
It seems like "Fortnite" has a star-studded July, and even though the month is near its end, another personality is coming. The new skin will join the likes of LeBron James from the Los Angeles Lakers, and the arrival of Ariana Grande, Lady Gaga, Naruto, and more on the platform.
'Fortnite' Teases Bloodsport Skin
"Fortnite" has already teased a lot of comic book characters in the battle royale, but it is nothing quite like this new release from the battle royale. According to Comicbook Gaming, "Fortnite" is planning something which extends the lore of the DC universe in the game.
Ingeniously, the character of Bloodsport in the comics is one of the very few that was able to give Superman a taste of his own medicine, by shooting him with a Kryptonite bullet. Season 7 of "Fortnite" which borders on the theme of "Alien Invasion" would soon feature Superman in the game.
The arrival of Bloodsport is something that would give gamers a chance to fight against the Man of Steel, just like in the comics.
