On May 25, 2021, many of our favorite NBA stars will now be playable characters in Fortnite. With the game’s crossover event with the NBA, Fortnite brings in outfits, wraps, pickaxes, and custom locker bundles all themed around NBA players. Here is everything we know about the second half of the event.
The Welcome Hub
One of the most significant changes you’ll see during the event is the Welcome Hub for the Creative lobbies will have a special hub for the event. In the hub, you’ll find plenty of exciting basketball-themed fun like hidden areas and a parkour map. You’ll also be able to purchase your favorite NBA skin straight from the lobby.
There will also be NBA video clips being played on screens in the lobby. They have set the following itinerary for what content they’ll show on each day of the event:
- May 25: Top Plays of the SeasonMay 26: Dazzling DunksMay 27: Crossovers & HandlesMay 28: Clutch PlaysMay 29: Top RejectionsMay 30: Top DimesMay 31: Top Plays of the Season
New LTM: Court Crashers
There is a new LTM available to play throughout the event called Court Crashers. In it, you must take risky, extravagant shots for slam dunks to score points and come out on top. It is currently available in the game (before the event starts) using the following Creative Code: 1898-7178-3313.
Cosmetics
Lastly, there will be two locker bundles custom-crafted by NBA players Donovan Mitchell and Trae Young. These locker bundles will include the following.
