Former professional basketball star Shaquille O’Neal, widely known as Shaq, is making his way to Fortnite as part of the Icon Series. Here’s everything you need to know about acquiring his skin.
While Fortnite’s Chapter 5, Season 4 might be showcasing a Marvel theme, Epic Games continues to diversify collaborations beyond the franchise. Following the addition of streamer Rubius, Shaq is now set to shine in the Battle Royale.
