It’s looking possible that a Fortnite Jinx skin may soon be available in Epic’s popular battle royale as part of a crossover with Riot’s equally popular League of Legends. According to a reliable leaker, the Fortnite League of Legends crossover may happen sometime this week as part of a tie-in with the League of Legends animated series Arcane — which launches on Netflix on November 6 and tells the origin story of Jinx and her sister Vi.
How to get the Fortnite Jinx skin in the League of Legends crossover
Jinx will likely be available in Fortnite as part of a League of Legends or Arcane bundle in the in-game shop, with a price of around 2100 V-Bucks for the bundle and 1500 V-Bucks for the Jinx skin on its own. The crossover between Fortnite and League of Legends hasn’t yet been announced officially but was leaked by reliable Fortnite insider Shiina on Twitter this weekend.
The bundle will include the Jinx skin and several accessories, such as her iconic shark gun as back-bling perhaps, and probably a melee weapon and a glider. It is entirely possible that there may be some form of in-game mission with Jinx as an NPC and a simple reward, similar to the current Ghostbusters Afterlife collab. This depends on how big this collaboration between Epic and Riot is.

While fans don’t yet know what Jinx will look like in-game, Twitter user @Shanyshdw created a concept to give them some idea.

Other crossovers currently running in Fortnite include the Dune movie’s Paul Atreides and Zendaya and the latest DC Comics crossover, the sinister The Batman Who Laughs, which is also available as part of a new Batman/Fortnite comic out now. League of Legends isn’t the only popular online game to crossover with Fortnite, either, as an Among Us collaboration is supposedly coming soon.
