Fortnite’s Naomi Osaka skins are coming soon

Four-time Grand Slam singles champion Naomi Osaka will take on a new challenge by parachuting onto Fortnite’s island.

Several big-name athletes are in Fortnite already, though Osaka is serving some exceptionally stylish threads. As with the recent Rogue and Gambit X-Men skin set, Osaka will have several cosmetics that we’ll outline below. The Naomi Osaka set will be available Thursday, March 3, 2022, at 4:00 P.M. PDT // 7:00 P.M. EDT.

Fortnite’s Naomi Osaka set

  • Naomi Osaka Skin 
  • Dark Priestess Naomi Skin
  • Royale Racket Pickaxe
  • Portalforger Paddle Pickaxe
  • The Queen’s Cloudcarriage Glider

The Naomi Osaka skin comes with a Court Queen alt style, while the Dark Priestess Naomi has the Neon Priestess alt style. Pricing info on these will go up closer to launch.

There’s also a spectacular trailer for Naomi Osaka’s arrival in Fortnite, which you can check out below.

“I’ve been playing Fortnite for a long time – when I saw LeBron had joined the Icon Series, it made me want to join the Fortnite family too,” Osaka said in a press release. “It’s really amazing to be able to connect with so many people around the world.”

The Naomi Osaka Cup event will put players in a solo tournament on Wednesday, March 2, 2022. Winning means potentially getting the skins mentioned above at no actual cost.
