Kim Kardashian Just Dropped Into Fortnite

Like it’s a Met Gala runway.

Fortnite’s Icon Series has a new queen, and she is not here to play subtle. Epic Games just confirmed Kim Kardashian as the next celebrity avatar in their cultural blender of a universe, and the timing hits like destiny. The woman who practically trademarked the internet’s attention span is now a playable skin with enough customization options to make even the sweatiest gamer pause and admire the fits. Seven colors. Four necklines. Three hairstyles. Fur coat on or off. SKIMS bodysuit or full leather catsuit fantasy. More than twenty-five versions of Kim, and not one misses.

This whole drop hits the Item Shop on December 13 at 7 PM ET, right in time for cuffing season and chaos. Prices land in classic Fortnite territory, with the main outfits hovering around fifteen hundred V Bucks and the full bundle somewhere in the three to four thousand range. There is even a private jet glider because of course there is, and a handbag pickaxe that feels like the most expensive weapon to ever mine digital brick. Internet Breaker, the emote, nods to her Paper Magazine moment, but sanitized just enough so your little cousin will not ask questions.

Epic Loves a Cultural Mother and Kim Loves a Good Portal

Fortnite has a long history of absorbing real world icons and spinning them into cartoon mythology. Ariana Grande, Travis Scott, Sabrina Carpenter, Naomi Osaka. Now Kim slides into that pantheon with the ease of someone who has monetized visibility better than any celebrity of her generation. This collab is a flex, yes, but it is also a sign of where gaming keeps drifting. Less niche hobby, more global stage for fame, fashion, and brand engineering.

There is even a Kim Kardashian Icon Cup on December 12, a solo tournament where top players get early access to the Iconic Kim skin and the Ring Light Back Bling for free. Eight points unlock a Heart Breakers spray, which feels poetic. Kim has been breaking the internet since Tumblr was still alive and messy.

Whether you love her, hate her, or study her like a cultural case file, she stays undeniable. And now she is armed with a purse pickaxe. Fortnite won again.
