Heroes in a Half Shell Hit Fortnite
Winterfest was just the warm-up. The action escalates as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (TMNT) make a triumphant return in Fortnite Battle Royale’s latest event – Cowabunga! Starting from the Fortnite Battle Royale v28.20 February 9 hotfix, players can dive into the fray wielding iconic TMNT weapons, from Leonardo’s Katanas to Michelangelo’s Nunchaku. But that’s just the beginning. Cowabunga offers a plethora of TMNT-themed rewards and runs until February 27, 2024, at 9 AM ET.
Unlock the Power of Ooze
Emerge victorious from your shell and hit the ground running with the event’s weapons, the return of the Driftboard, and the mouth-watering Pizza Party. Completing Cowabunga Quests earns you Ooze, the key to advancing in Cowabunga’s free reward track. The ultimate prize? Donatello’s ingenious Turtle Blimp Glider. For those seeking an extra edge, the Premium Reward Track upgrade offers additional treasures, including the formidable Shredder Outfit and, for LEGO® Fortnite fans, a special LEGO Style for both Shredder and Super Shredder.
Master the Art of TMNT Combat
Fortnite’s battlefield is now your dojo. Whether you’re brandishing Raphael’s Sai or Donatello’s Staff, four unique abilities await your command. Execute relentless attacks, aerial assaults, dash attacks, and even double jumps. With these weapons, sourced from Chests, Supply Drops, and vending machines, every encounter promises to be a spectacle of ninja prowess.
It’s Pizza Time!
Amidst the chaos, don’t forget to enjoy the simpler things – like a Driftboard ride or a Pizza Party. TMNT-ified Driftboards are ready for action, and Pizza Party boxes, replenishing both Health and Shield, are up for grabs. Trade Bars with Splinter for a slice, and remember, “Forgiveness is divine, but this pizza’s on-time.”
Embark on Cowabunga Quests
Navigate the island’s sewer pipes or wield Raphael’s Sai, all while ticking off Cowabunga Quests. These quests not only enrich your gameplay experience but also fuel your progress with Ooze, unlocking an array of in-game rewards. Keep tabs on your Ooze and rewards through the Cowabunga tab in the Lobby.
The Saga Unfolds: Cowabunga Quests
Cowabunga’s adventure is divided into six thrilling phases, each inspired by the Turtles’ missions. From the stealthy “Stick to the Shadows” to the celebratory “Shellebrate Quests,” each phase unfolds new challenges and opportunities. Complete five quests in a phase to unlock the coveted Krang Blueprint, and collect all six to claim the Krang Back Bling.
A Visit from Master Splinter
No TMNT event would be complete without the wise Splinter. Available in the Fortnite Shop throughout Cowabunga, the Splinter Outfit comes in both Fortnite and LEGO Styles, offering a blend of wisdom and combat readiness.
TMNT and April O’Neil: A Stylish Return
Leonardo, Raphael, Michelangelo, and Donatello aren’t the only ones gearing up for action. April O’Neil also makes a comeback, with outfits for all characters available in LEGO Style. These iconic characters ensure that Cowabunga isn’t just an event; it’s a celebration of TMNT legacy.
Cowabunga kicks off today, inviting players to embrace their inner ninja in Fortnite’s most radical update yet. Whether you’re a seasoned fighter or a casual gamer, the TMNT event promises action, rewards, and, most importantly, fun. See you on the island, gamers!
