Gone are the days when gaming did not match the popularity of other entertainment industries like films and music. The gaming industry has significantly grown in the past few years, and games like Fortnite and Animal Crossing: New Horizons have played a huge role in it.
Hollywood celebrities and music artists now leave no opportunity to promote their work through games. For instance, Marshmello and Travis Scott have performed virtually in Fortnite, and Lil Nas X did the same in ROBLOX.
The latest celebrity to be a part of this list is Brie Larson. The American actress and filmmaker recently got her own locker bundle in Fortnite that contains the following items:
