Fortnite has just announced a huge collaboration with Balenciaga, one of the premier fashion brands in the world. The collaboration includes skins, Pickaxes, back blings and more cosmetics. This is one of the biggest collaborations Fortnite has done, at par with last season's collaboration with Ferrari.

The event will be a one-week long affair. Fortnite players will have plenty of opportunities to play, unlock and purchase all the Balenciaga themed items coming to the game.

Fortnite Balenciaga release date

Based on Epic Games' announcement, the event will kick off tomorrow. Starting September 21 at 10 am EST. The event will last one week until September 28 at about 10 am EST. The event will likely come with a small update just before it goes live, so Fortnite players should be aware of that. During that time, there will be a Creative hub dedicated to the event as well as a couple of challenges.
