The Turtles return in Fortnite Battle Royale

Winterfest was just the beginning. Now, the real battle begins — the Turtles return in Fortnite Battle Royale’s Cowabunga to confront their nemesis Shredder. Cowabunga begins now in the Fortnite Battle Royale v28.20 Feb 9 hotfix! Take up weapons like Leonardo's Katanas and Michelangelo's Nunchaku while unlocking TMNT-themed rewards in-game. Cowabunga runs until February 27, 2024, at 9 AM ET!

Come out of your shell with the weapons and returning Driftboard and Pizza Party, all while completing Cowabunga Quests to earn Ooze. The more Ooze you get, the more you’ll progress in Cowabunga’s free reward track! The final reward of this track is one of Donnie’s most ingenious inventions: the Turtle Blimp Glider.

If you purchase Cowabunga’s Premium Reward Track upgrade, you’ll automatically unlock the Shredder Outfit. The Premium Reward Track is an extra layer of rewards you can unlock at the same rate as the free reward track. Enhanced by the power of the same mutagen that gave the Turtles life , the Super Shredder Outfit is the final reward of this track. Fan of LEGO® Fortnite? Both Shredder and Super Shredder have a LEGO Style!

• Air Attack: Press the primary fire button in-air for a devastating air attack.

• Dash Attack: Press the secondary fire button to charge with your weapon.
