Fortnite is adding another soccer star to its roster. Son Heung-min, the famous South Korean footballer, is getting his own bundle in the game. This comes as Epic Games makes a big push into the Korean market with various new content.
What’s Inside the Son Heung-min Skin Bundle in Fortnite
Based on the leaks posted by Fortnite reliable data miners, Son Heung-min’s skin bundle will come packed with four cool items. You’ll get his official soccer uniform as an outfit, which looks just like what he wears on the field (plus what looks like armor over it). The bundle also includes a special back bling that changes how it looks based on the time of day. Pretty neat if you ask me.
There’s also a wrap with a soccer theme that you can put on your weapons. But the coolest part might be the Snap Ceremony emote. This lets you do Son’s famous selfie celebration dance that he does after scoring goals.
When Is Son Heung-min Skin Bundle Coming to Fortnite?
Mark your calendar for June 21st, 2025, because that’s when the Son Heung-min bundle drops in the Fortnite Item Shop. But don’t wait too long to grab it. The bundle will only be available until June 28th, so you’ve got just one week to get your hands on it.
Epic Games’ Big Push into Korea
Son Heung-min becomes the fifth soccer player to join Fortnite. He is joining some pretty big names like Messi, Neymar, Reus, and Harry Kane. Each of these players brought their own style to the game.
Epic Games is actually making a huge effort to win over Korean players, and Son Heung-min is a key part of that plan. The developer admits that Fortnite hasn’t done really well in Korea before. Now, they’re trying to do things differently. Along with Son’s skin bundle, Epic is also adding K-pop songs to Fortnite Festival, including songs from BTS members Jungkook and Jimin. Popular groups like ENHYPEN and ILLIT are also getting their music added, too. Additionally, the popular Netflix show Squid Game will also have a collaboration soon with Fortnite.
Epic Games is also making it easier for Korean players to download Fortnite through Nexon PC room and the ONE store on Android. If you’re a soccer fan or just love collecting rare Fortnite skins, this bundle looks like a must-have. The reactive back bling and celebration emote make it stand out from other sports collaborations!
