When is Ash from Evil Dead coming to Fortnite?

Fortnitemares is currently taking place in the game, and there are several collaborations as well. Right now, the Item Shop is playing host to the latest Rick & Morty collaboration with Queen Summer and Mr. Meeseeks skins. Back Adam is also a big part of this Halloween season. These are big collaborations, but they're not the biggest Halloween crossover.

The Evil Dead horror franchise is also getting a crossover. Ash, the protagonist from the movies, will be coming to Fortnite. He is already an NPC in a new landmark for the event, but he's also going to be a skin. But when is Ash from Evil Dead coming to Fortnite? Here's what we know.

New skin update: When is Ash from Evil Dead coming to Fortnite?

Ash Williams already has a home at the Knowby Cabin, which can be found near Groovy Grove. The cabin is being remodeled and will now look exactly like the cabin from the Evil Dead franchise, with decorations inside to make it a perfect replica.

This is where the NPC will spawn, but when is Ash from Evil Dead coming to Fortnite's Item Shop? Although Epic Games has been silent on that front, there is a lot of reason to believe the character will arrive eventually. For starters, the skin was leaked by reliable leaker ShiinaBR. The leaker revealed the skin on Twitter, showcasing it alongside what appears to be a back bling, a loading screen, a pickaxe, and one more cosmetic item.

Ash from Evil Dead was also seen in a blink-and-you'll-miss-it moment in the Fortnitemares trailer, so there's ample evidence for his eventual arrival.

As for when that will be, it's anyone's guess. No leaker has provided an official release date just yet, and no announcement has come from Epic Games either. However, many expect it to be in the next few days. The Item Shop rarely has multiple featured collaborations at once, so once the Rick & Morty collaboration runs its course, the Ash from Evil Dead crossover will likely take over.

The Fortnitemares event is scheduled to run through November 1, so the skin will arrive in the Item Shop long before then. Epic presumably wants to get all they can out of this collaboration, so they'll probably try to add it soon. Readers can keep an eye on the game's official social media handles to see when the collaboration is officially announced.

The pricing of the Ash from Evil Dead skin could be anywhere from 1,200 to 2,000 V-Bucks.

Here's a look at what the items might cost:

• Ash Williams skin- 1,500 V-Bucks
• Pickaxe- 800 V-Bucks
• Back bling- 500 V-Bucks
• Loading screen- 200 V-Bucks
• Back bling- 500 V-Bucks
• Total- 3,500 V-Bucks
• Bundle cost- 2,500 V-Bucks

With every collaboration, there's a bundle that offers items at a reduced price. Each individual item can add up to a hefty total, but the bundle always offers better value for money.

Note: These prices are purely speculative. Epic Games has not released any information on the prices of these potential cosmetics.
