Robocop Added To Fortnite, Ali-A Joins Icon Series This Week

Epic Games announces Robocop now available to purchase in Fortnite Item Shop. Additionally, YouTuber Ali A will be joining the Fortnite Icon Series Thursday, May 29, 8 p.m. ET. 

Robocop has been added to the game this weekend. He even includes the leg that defeated his rival, ED-209. You can also ride on a miniature ED-209 with a Robocop Emote. 

“The Robocop Outfit includes the LEG-209 Back Bling, the leg of ED-209 that’s separately available as a Pickaxe,” an Epic Games blog post reads. “Get them both in the Robocop Bundle and use LEG-209 as a Pickaxe that can be a Back Bling and vice versa. Are you going on patrol? The traversal Lil’ ED-209 Emote is also in the Shop. You can use it to take a mini ED-209 up and down stairs.

YouTuber Ali-A hits the Fortnite Icon Series this Thursday, but before then, you can complete Ali-A’s Quest to unlock a special spray. And if that’s not enough, you can compete in the Ali-A Cup on Wednesday, May 18, for a chance to unlock the Ali-A Outfit early as well as the Ali-A Army Emoticon. 

The Ali-A quest to unlock a new spray isn’t too difficult – eliminate 15 opponents at the Ali-A experience, which is already live in-game – and it will be live in Fortnite until May 29. You’ll receive the Ali-A Was Here Spray, which you can view below, for doing this.

What else can you expect from Ali-A? You can buy the Outfit to obtain the Default (Elevated), Matroix and Ultra-Armor Matroix Styles. The Sapphire Paragon, Sapphire Paragon(Revealed), Titanium Tac (Revealed), and Titanium Tac style options are available too. You can see all the styles in the images below. 

The Matroix, Ultra-Armor Matroix, Sapphire Paragon, Sapphire Paragon (Revealed), Titanium Tac, and Titanium Tac (Revealed) Styles have the Rare Reaper, Uncommon Combat, Epic Insurgent, and Legendarian color options – blue, green, purple, and gold respectively. 

“The Ali-A Outfit won’t be the only thing available,” Epic Games’ blog post reads. “Included with the Outfit is the Ali-Tech Backplate Back Bling, fusion-cooled storage for the battlefield. The Ali-Tech Plasmawings Alt Style will let you show off your wings. [descend] on the island with the Ali-Tech Plasmawings Glider (built into the Outfit). You want to give it a try? By swinging the Ali-Tech Staff Pickaxe – which will also be in the shop – the Ali-A emblem built in will spin. Additionally, a-dorn your gear with The Blue A Wrap and ride prehistorically with the Lil’ Diplodoculus Emote.”
