Is Michael Myers in Fortnite?

If there is a horror movie villain that can be alongside Freddy Krueger and Jason Voorhees as the most iconic villains in cinema history, Michael Myers certainly takes the spot. Yes, there are a lot of other slasher film villains that can be considered as part of the club. However, Myers, alongside his countless movies and his music theme, takes the cake. What else could he do to deserve this spot? Well, to appear as a Fortnite skin, of course! Here is how to get Michael Myers in Fortnite.

How to Get Michael Myers in Fortnite

While Michael Myers will indeed appear in Fortnite without a shadow of a doubt, it is still unclear when exactly will he be available for purchase. The most recent patch notes for the Fortnitemares 2023 update indicate that Michael Myers – alongside Jack Skellington and Alan Wake – will arrive on Fortnite “later in Fortnitemares 2023”. Since the event lasts until November 3, 2023 (2 am ET), chances are that all three will drop on Halloween. That is, of course, October 31, 2023.

Once Michael Myers drops, you can expect him to appear at the store as a standalone skin or as part of “The Shape” bundle. You can expect the standalone skin to cost 1,500 V-Bucks and the whole bundle around 2,400. This is all speculation, but this is the standard price we have seen on other skins and bundles.

How to get the Michael Myers Emote in Fortnite

One of the other items that are part of “The Shape” bundle is his personal emote. While you might expect a little bit of slashing action from Myers – after all, he is the perfect definition of a slasher film villain – the reality is that the emote will have him play the iconic Halloween theme song. You know, that theme song that will have you looking behind your back in case Michael magically appears behind you. No, don’t look back.

To get it, just as said above, you can purchase “The Shape” bundle in the item store. You will also receive his iconic knife and a Jack-o-Lantern Back Bling. Alternatively, although unconfirmed at the moment, you could use purchase the emote on its own in the store as well. Prepare for some terrifying jingle-performing disrespect.
