Fortnite has done it again, and there are tears everywhere. No, not because we're sad about the previous leaks, but because the latest shop drop is a collab with one indie icon, The Binding of Isaac. It dropped quietly, with not much of an announcement by way of the Fortnite social media accounts, so we've got all the details you need right here.
After one of the Binding of Isaac developers, Edmund McMillen, confirmed the collab, speculation ran wild. It turns out that the bundle consists of back-bling, a pickaxe, and an emote. The back bling is none other than baby Isaac himself, and he'll weep when you take damage - be careful out there to keep him safe. He also gets excited when you open chests - isn't that darned cute!
The pickaxe resembles Mom's Knife, the iconic weapon that causes division amongst Isaac fans. Still, the Knife looks really cool in the Fortnite shop, so the difference in opinion won't affect interest in it. As for the emote, we'd have loved to see the player in the fetal position, but instead, the player holds Binding of Isaac boss 'Duke of Flies', featuring flies buzzing around. Still pretty cool.
The Isaac Unbound bundle costs a modest 1,000 V-Bucks, and individually, the back-bling costs 600 V-Bucks, while both the pickaxe and emote go for 500 each. This means if you're interested in two of the items, you may as well get the whole deal. We think it's a good deal, especially given that the back bling is dynamic and changes according to your gameplay. And why not throw in a fun emote with it?
This new partnership comes in the midst of the Fortnite Kai Cenat collab hitting the shop, as well as a recently announced Fortnite Peacemaker skin. The game has certainly been upping the ante lately, so we're looking forward to every new announcement that comes during the tail end of chapter six, season four, in the lead-up to the Fortnite Festival.
