A major factor in the massive surge of popularity that Fortnite: Battle Royale has seen has been due to the widely popular cosmetic items that players have the ability to earn and purchase to customize their playing experience. Utilziing the in-game currency of V-Bucks, fans of the game are able to customize their characters in a variety of ways. The latest cosmetic item to be making waves in the community has been the leaked Fortnite Battle Royale Starter Pack, and now the community has an expected release date for the highly anticipated item.
A detailed listing of the starter pack has been found on the Playstation store revealing the release date and how long the pack will be available for. The listing shows that the cosmetic pack, which includes the Rogue Agent skin, 600 V-Bucks and the Catalyst Back Bling, will be available from March 27th to April 1st and will cost $4.99. While this listing was found on the Playstation store, there has been no indication that it will be a playstation exclusive. However, these cosmetic items are only able to be used in the battle royale version of the game and not the Save the World mode.
This is a great deal for new and old players alike, considering that 1,000 V-Bucks will cost you $9.99, this pack will reward you with a skin, a substantial amount of in-game currency and a piece of back bling for about half the price. If you have been itching to grab a new skin to grab your next set of victory royales with, then this is the perfect opportunity to upgrade your collection.
