Wednesday, March 27th saw Red Bull announce that it would be releasing a limited edition can that would feature Twitch streamer extraordinaire and Fortnite Battle Royale Tyler "Ninja" Belvins. The announcement of the Ninja Red Bull can is the latest in a string of successful ventures the two parties have had together ever since signing a partnership deal together in 2018 that has featured an all-night Fortnite tournament on the 99th floor of Chicago's Willis Tower and a New Year's Fortnite event in New York City.
Ninja Red Bull Can
Fans will be able to get their hands on the new Ninja Red Bull can beginning on Monday, April 1st in the United States for a limited time period. They will be available for purchase in four and 12 pack bundles of 8.4oz cans.
Following the announcement by the popular energy drink brand, Ninja took to his Twitter account to share his thoughts on the product and his partnership with a company that helped to have his dreams come true.
18 year old me would think this is a dream. Incredible proud and so happy to have this @redbull partnership and to have made my dreams come true. https://t.co/5TlfilVoVS

Ninja is not the first esports player to be featured on a limited edition Red Bull can, as OpTic Gaming member and Halo professional player Michael "Flamesword" Chaves was featured on a similar style of a product back in 2015 for the release of the Taken King expansion for Destiny.
In addition to the reveal of the new product, the energy drink company also announced a contest where fans can win a trip to play with the Twitch and Fortnite star at an event by uploading a video of their gaming setup to the company's website.
