Fortnite continues to collaborate with other entertainment brands. Next up are Jack Sparrow and Pirates of the Caribbean.
The long-running Fortnite has long established itself as the best and most active platform in the gaming sector when it comes to crossover campaigns with other major entertainment brands. And this trend will continue in the future, as the next major film series, “Pirates of the Caribbean” from Disney, is now coming into play.
Over the weekend, reliable Fortnite leakers HYPEX and ShiinaBR released a ton of information and leaks about the new collaboration, which had not yet been officially confirmed – before Epic Games itself rather inadvertently confirmed it.
After the two leakers had already published the contents of a corresponding loading screen, a Jack Sparrow skin, a mini pass and more, the package suddenly appeared in the Fortnite item shop without any announcement, to everyone’s surprise. But this was an oversight, because Epic Games quickly pulled the plug on the so-called “Cursed Sails Pass”.
Nevertheless, some quick players were able to purchase the package in this short period of time, which forced Epic Games to make a statement via social media. There they confirmed that the lucky buyers can at least use the Jack Sparrow skin, but all other contents of the package will remain inaccessible until the official release and will only be unlocked when the time comes. In the process, July 19, 2024 was confirmed as the release date for the Cursed Sails Pass.
In addition to the Jack Sparrow skin, there is a matching pickaxe, a skin variation, the Jar of Dirt emote, the Sparrow Run emote and more to discover in the pass.
