Fortnite fans rejoice - IKON is coming to Fortnite!

Posted by megamanx2,202 pts Wednesday, February 20, 2019



You all know the extremely popular battle royale game Fortnite, well for fans of IKON it’s about to get even better!

Samsung made an exclusive Fortnite skin for people who buy the new Galaxy S10 Plus phone. It’s K-pop-themed, and it’s modeled after IKON’s Jung Chan-woo.

Unfortunately, you’ll need tons of money to unlock this skin, because the Galaxy S10 Plus is going to cost you a fortune. In any regards, it’s great seeing more gaming/K-Pop crossovers.

According to TheVerge:

"Samsung made an exclusive Fortniteskin for people who buy the new Galaxy S10 Plus phone. It’s K-pop-themed, and it’s modeled after Jung Chan-woo, a member of South Korean boy band iKon.

You may not have heard of iKon, but just know it’s a seven-member band from YG Entertainment, which also brought bands like Big Bang and 2NE1 to fame. Like their predecessors, iKon mostly performs hip-hop, from catchy ballads to more straight-up rap. Chan-woo is known as the group’s youngest member, or the maknae, who’s usually unofficially responsible for bringing more cuteness to a group.

The deal is exclusive to the S10 Plus, so if you’re planning on getting a regular S10, you won’t qualify. It feels like Samsung is trying to incentivize more mobile gamers to buy the S10 Plus, boasting that its new Snapdragon 855 processor will translate into smoother gameplay. Whether you get the S10 or S10 Plus, Samsung is also throwing in Galaxy Buds as part of the bargain."
