Fans of Fortnite and Metal Gear Solid are in for a treat as two iconic characters from the renowned stealth-action franchise join the popular battle royale game. Solid Snake was previously confirmed as an upcoming addition to Fortnite, and now Raiden is set to follow suit. In update 28.10 for Fortnite, players will be able to access skins for Raiden including one with his flowing blonde hair and another featuring his iconic mask. Additionally, purchasing Raiden's skin also grants access to his katana as a weapon, allowing fans to channel the character's skills in-game. This update belongs to chapter 5 and adds to the ongoing expansion of Fortnite's universe, which recently introduced new modes like Lego survival, Rocket Racing, and Fortnite Festival.
