Ripley and the Alien Xenomorph Join Fortnite

The Alien franchise has invaded Fortnite, as both Ripley and the Xenomorph are now available for purchase. Announced by The Fortnite Team, Ripley arrives with her Nostromo Crew Outfit variant and the Weyland-Yutani Cat Carrier, which comes complete with Jonesy the Cat.

The Space Gear Bundle is another purchasable addition from the Alien universe, and includes the P-500 Power Loader Arm Pickaxe, the Cheyenne Dropship Glider, and a new emote that's "bursting on the scene." Ripley and the Xenomorph follow both Fortnite's addition of Street Fighter's Chun-Li and Ryu and the crossover with Tron. This news also arrives a few days after Epic Games announced that any player who purchased its loot boxes called Loot Llamas in the Fortnite: Save the World mode will receive 1,000 V-Bucks for free following a class-action settlement.
