What, just because we’re going OG with Chapter 4 – Season 5, you expected there to be less crossovers in Fortnite? If anything, people have been clamouring for more Stranger Things skins in Fortnite for so long that characters like Eleven and Steve finally coming to the game is almost nostalgic itself. And now we for certain that Eleven will be a huge feature of Fortnite OG after years of waiting.
Eleven, also known as “El”, is a main character in Netflix’s Stranger Things. She is a young girl who possesses telekinetic and psychic abilities, which were the result of government experiments. When last we saw here, she was just as upset as everyone else that Hawkins now seemed to be a sinkhole following Vecna’s grand plan. But never mind all that: it’s time for silly stuff on the Fortnite island.
Tired of crushing cans with your mind through sheer boredom of no new Stranger Things stuff in Fortnite? Bit weird, but worry not: we have everything you ought to know about Eleven coming to Fortnite as a skin, including what she looks like and when you can buy her.
Fortnite Stranger Things Eleven Skin
Ahead of the launch of Fortnite OG (Chapter 4 – Season 5 to us purists), highly reputable leaker Hypex found mention of the Eleven skin in the game’s files, then shared a rather crusty look at the cosmetics themselves, before ShiinaBR brought us the HD skin assets that you can see above.
So it seems like we will be getting two different styles of Eleven in Fortnite: the Season 3 version and the one who returned to Papa in Season 4. It’s nice to see to see her love for Eggo waffles represented too, as well as the fact that she gets her very own emote. There are also two different pickaxes, though interestingly it’s usually Steve who has the spiked baseball bat.
Here’s a video of the Eleven skin in action:
And here’s her description:
“Telekinetic teen who escaped Dr. Brenner and Hawkins National Laboratory.”
It also seems that the Demogorgon and Hopper skins will both be returning to the Item Shop at the same time that Eleven makes her Fortnite debut.
Fortnite Stranger Things Eleven Skin Price
While most crossover skins in Fortnite used to go for closer t0 2000 V-Bucks, Epic has smartly decided to sell them for closer to 1500 V-Bucks on average in recent times, and that’s the case here with Eleven, who costs 1500 V-Bucks too.
Players will also be able to get their hands on an Eleven bundle too that features every single cosmetic for 2500 V-Bucks as part of the Stranger Things set.
Fortnite Stranger Things Eleven Skin Release Date
Eleven is currently scheduled to release in the Fortnite Item Shop on November 5th, 2023 at 8PM ET / November 6th at 12 AM GMT when the Item Shop resets, along with the other Stranger Things skins already released.
As a hugely anticipated crossover, you might expect Eleven to remain in the Item Shop for at least a week or more before being rotated, with her also highly likely to make a return when the final season of Stranger Things releases. However, Epic has announced that she will only remain in the Fortnite Item Shop for 24 hours, clearly to try and increase the demand for her.
Fortnite is free-to-play on PC via the Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X | S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and Android.
