Fortnite has launched a brand-new Icon Series skin for Clix, one of the well-known professional players alongside YouTubers.

Clix, whose real name is Cody Conrod initially received recognition as a prodigy in the Fortnite competitive scene, qualifying for the 2019 Fortnite World Cup at the age of 14.

In addition to competitive matches, Clix also created variety of Fortnite-related content, including high-stakes wagers and reactions to game updates and events.

Taking to X (formerly Twitter), Clix announced that he is receiving his own Fortnite Icon Series skin.

Ahead of the launch, Fortnite is set to host the Clix Icon Cup on March 21, offering gamers a chance to unlock these items early.

Additionally, Fortnite has unveiled Clix Tycoon, a new creative island that allows players to experience the journey of a rising content creator.

Despite skins, Fortnite players can also unlock or purchase Clix-themed emotes and items. One standout is the 2-Ply TP Hammer Pickaxe, a toilet paper-crafted weapon that humorously allows players to wipe the floor with their opponents.

To note, integrating real-world creators in Fortnite keeps the game fresh and engaging to attract fans eager to compete and celebrate their favourite players in this dynamic, free-for-all battle royale.
