After much speculation and rumors, it seems Assassin’s Creed is indeed the next franchise to be added to Epic’s ever growing list of crossovers. In a twist, we are getting not one but two assassins from two different eras – Ezio Auditore and Eivor.
Ezio is the second assassin to be introduced into the epic saga. A pillar of the franchise, Ezio’s story stretches from Assassin’s Creed 2, Brotherhood, and Revelations. Eivor may the latest assassin to be added into the pantheon but her game, Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, is already considered one of the best Assassin’s Creed game in recent memory.
The Ezio Auditore outfit is set to release on the in-game starting on April 7th at 5 PM PT or 8 PM ET.
The Assassin’s Strike emote and Ezio’s Hidden Blade pickaxe are built into the Ezio Auditore Outfit. The Assassin’s Strike can only be used when Ezio has the pickaxe equipped.
Eivor’s outfit comes with a cloaked alternate style and includes Eivor’s Raven clan shield. Accompanying items include her twin axes and the Wolf-Kissed longboat glider.
The Eivor bundle comes with it a War Cry emote that sees her bang her shield and axes together in a menacingly way.
By purchasing the Tales from the Animus bundles, players not only get everything stated above but also:
- Wolf-Kissed Spray
- Eivor’s Fury loading screen
- Raven clan emoticon
- A Tales from the Animus banner
Things have been shaking up frequently in Fortnite. Recently, they’ve added a new game mode that allows for Zero builds. With everything happening so quickly, players shouldn’t be surprised if the next collaboration suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
