Kim Kardashian is coming to Fortnite.

The 45-year-old reality star will be the next playable celebrity to feature in Epic Games' popular title and will feature in the Fortnite Icon Series from Saturday (13.12.25).

Epic has released the first look at Kim's in-game debut and have teased a full cosmetic set inspired by The Kardashians star's outfits and persona.

A trailer announcing her arrival states: "Kim Kardashian is a mom, an entrepreneur, a fashion icon, a TV star, and now she's taking on Fortnite."

Kim then says: "What, like it's hard?"

The final moments of the trailer reveal her Icon Series Skin, which features multiple looks built around a fitted bodysuit with a number of colour variants.

A separate version featuring Kim with her hair down and a jacket is also on the way, although it is not yet confirmed whether it is an alternate style or a completely different skin.

The cosmetic bundle for Kim features a private jet glider, a smartphone-plus-ring light back bling and a designer-style bag pickaxe.

Fortnite also provides a nod to Kardashian's famous 'Break the Internet' 2014 Paper Magazine photoshoot, which is recreated in an emote.

Players will be able to balance the Fortnite shield potion on the character's foot, poking fun at the original pose where Kim balanced a glass of champagne on her backside.

Kim isn't the first famous face to feature on Fortnite, after rapper Doja Cat featured with Wednesday Addams and Scooby-Doo for the Halloween Fortnitemares special earlier this year.

According to Epic, the Say So artist "gives fear a new face", transforming the Island into her haunted kingdom while summoning a chilling roster of "VIPs of fright".
