Fortnite, being a brand itself, leaves a lot of opportunities for some epic collaborations. The game has already partnered with Rocket League and J. Balvin for season 4, which is a collaboration with Marvel itself. As a result, Fortnite players around the world can always get unique exclusive skins to flaunt in the game.
Epic Games has now collaborated with popular movie franchise, Ghostbusters. Halloween is just around the corner, and it is the perfect time for a Ghostbusters collaboration. Players can grab their set in the shop now:
They ain't afraid of no ghosts.

Fortnite benefits extensively from such unusual collaborations
At first glance, there seems to be no reason for a collaboration between a battle royale game and a movie franchise. However, it is a brilliant marketing strategy for both parties.
Ghostbusters: Afterlife releases on March 5, 2021, and the exclusive skins will definitely remind the players to check it out. Fortnite also benefits from such collaborations, because it receives the attention of a diverse audience other than raking in some money.
Kinda really wish I was a Fortnite player now. lol

Unlike some other skins available as in-game rewards, the new Ghostbuster skins are only available through V-bucks. Along with the Ghostbuster pair, the item shop has a Ghostbuster-themed glider skin, harvesting tool and much more.
The latest Fortnitemares update has been well-received so far. There are several spooky changes in the map, and players can even play as a shadow to get a Nightmare Royale. Fans also witnessed the return of Midas as a boss and look forward to joining his army.
The only bone of contention among the fans is the removal of the Charge Shotgun. Some players who had often complained about the gun and are happy with Epic’s decision. However, others argue that it was a skill-based weapon and the developers shouldn’t have vaulted it.
