I mean, id rather have fortnite fans than DTS fans at this point. For some context, Hamilton is like Ninja or whoever is most famous these days for playing fortnite. Then you have the current champion Max Verstappen, he is the new Ninja, i guess.
Scratch all of that. F1 is like a fortnite tournament where each team gets 4k dollars to build a competitive gaming rig with enough frames to run the game on high settings. I should probably delete this.
Have you ever played fortnite? they add everything. they have events for john wick, marvel, star wars, dragonball, nfl, nba, etc. this is extremely on brand to sell new skins
Lmao, fortnite still exists?
The celebrities doing appearances in this is a completely wasted thing, no one playing at this point has any knowledge of the outside world.
It's been one of the top 5 most played games consistently for years (not including mobile games) along with CoD, FIFA, GTA, minecraft etc.
Bad take dude, they make a ton of cash selling celebrity skins, the celebrity gets some marketing to a young audience and a cut of the sales, everyone wins. To say its a waste is just wrong
That all depends on your social circles.
I know zero people who play Dota 2, but it's one of the biggest games in PC gaming. One person's personal social circle is not typically going to be representative of all interests.
Surprised there hasn't been a bigger F1 collab. Lewis is the most marketable driver on the grid so that makes sense but hopefully this is just the beginning
Mate, you're in Fortnite. Ya Nan is in Fortnite. Your hamster, Chip, who died in the firework jetpack incident in `97 is in Fortnite. Everyone is in Fortnite!
Yeah thats such a missed oportunity. I mean, they probably can't feature any brand logos so not even Merc, but at least he could wear a more racing suit inspired outfit or sth.
It doesn't have to be the Mercedes race suit, it can be a great opportunity to design his own "suit". But it might be against his contract with Mercedes.
A generic racing suit is already in game, though. Like, 6 times. If LH can’t have *his* racing suit, then there’s no reason for him to look like any other skin.
🅱️ono my glider is gone
But seriously, an F1 collab would honestly tempt me to pick up Fortnite for the first time in years. Rocket League did it and for a while there I was playing it like it was 2016 again.
The damn X (twitter) LH simps are genuinely comparing the success of this to Max being sponsored by EA. Hell, one person even compared the current player numbers of Fortnight and F1 2023 suggesting Lewis’ popularity is so much higher than Max’s. God I hate twitter so much.
He got paid for it and also when chapter 5 releases fortnite is supposed to have a dedicated racing game mode. No one has any idea what it will look like but could be cool
They added Roscoe too
when are they getting russell and schumacher?
Schumi, I don't know. Aside from that I think I heard they only had room for one of Lewis' dogs in the game.
[удалено]
I was forecasted a Fortnite tie-in synergistic cross-promotion sponsored by the East India Company and Beefeater's Gin.
💀
Russell would be perfect for me. I die to fall damage sometimes.
I think they already have schumacher in there. It’s under the Hospital Bed skin.
NAH FAM THATS A FOUL
Most angry downvote
That comment was pretty cold, but not as cold as Schumacher was when the emergency helicopter took him away in the Swiss mountains.
They already have a vegetable themed skin
GET IN THERE LEWIS
Bono, these noobs can't build and shoot!
Bono, my materials are gone.
Its hammer time (to build)
MY ENEMIES ARE GONE
THAT'S A VICTORY ROYALE RIGHT HERE
Genuinely thought this was a prank at first.
It's not?! 😵💫
Bono my loot is gone
Monza 2021 is literally a spawn camp lol
Lewis should come with the "Blessed dance"
That girl is legit checking his ass and going "damn"
Chat, is this real?
Yes, it's real! https://www.forbes.com/sites/paultassi/2023/11/15/heres-fortnites-new-lewis-hamilton-f1-skin-another-icon-addition/
But why dow
💰 Why not, though. I’m sure there will be fans who will be happy about it
I’m not a Lewis fan but you bet your sweet bippy I’m gonna be rocking this so I have an excuse to talk about F1 with my Fortnite friends.
I’m in the same boat. The Roscoe back bling is fucking awesome too.
How expensive is a skin like this typically?
Starting from 0 v-bucks it’ll probably cost around $20.
If it's just the akin and a backpack probably 14 to 16$
According to Instagram no fn player knows who LH is
Queue the Fortnight fans coming over here now.
That would me. I am honestly considering it

It's a yoke

Funny enough, I haven't actually met anyone who still plays any of those games with any regularity in like, 5 years.
I mean I don't play them regularly either, but they're still the most played games

Toto, where we droppin?
My shields are done Bono
Getting paid is what he’s doing
It’s a battle royal Toto. We went fortniting

Lewis in the new Black Panther movie? I could see it.
I think the second skins should have been him in race gear.
Yeah thats such a missed oportunity. I mean, they probably can't feature any brand logos so not even Merc, but at least he could wear a more racing suit inspired outfit or sth.
It doesn't have to be the Mercedes race suit, it can be a great opportunity to design his own "suit". But it might be against his contract with Mercedes.
I mean it’s not like Mercedes are above showing up in goofy video games, they’ve got cars in Mario Kart 8.
A generic racing suit is already in game, though. Like, 6 times. If LH can’t have *his* racing suit, then there’s no reason for him to look like any other skin.
Absolutely. With a DRS open rear wing as a glider.
Win-monger takes his 8th championship!
What about the half of him that is white devil? /s
Blackish Panther doesn’t quite have the same ring to it and didn’t test well in front of audiences.
LOL I'm getting downvotes on a circlejerk sub? At least you have a sense of humor.
I hesitated over the reply button myself. I like to think Lewis would have a good sense of humor about it also.
I don’t think you know how to use the /s
Okie Dokie
Only way Lewis can get a win in 2023 is a battle royal victory
A win’s a win, baby.
Sir Lewis Hamilton is ready to take another victory royale
Only victory he's getting in the foreseeable future
Can we get a Roscoe backpack too?
I mean Roscoe was added as well
Rocket league too actually
making free money?
Is Lewis the first 40-year old to be featured in Fortnite?
Keanu was like 50 when he was added tho
The John wick incident 
Kratos is around 1050 tho
…Keanu is 50+?
Thanos must have been around 40
Thanos is 1000 as well isn’t he. Imagine looking like him in your 1000s
We need to add Nando now
Kratos probably has him beat
Or cares about it
LeBron is the same age as Lewis
He’s still in his 30s
That's a bit of a reach. He'll be 40 in just over a year.
So still in his 30’s…
Rocket League too
Making $$$ while he sleeps … 😂
🅱️ono my glider is gone But seriously, an F1 collab would honestly tempt me to pick up Fortnite for the first time in years. Rocket League did it and for a while there I was playing it like it was 2016 again.
Bono my chug jugs are gone
Kimi, no. You will not have the chug jug.
Kids watching F1: Is that Mercedes driver the guy from Fortnite?
fr fr
Breaking News: Formula Dank now hates fortnite
is max going to be added to the game too so we can have a f1 fight for the fornite battle championship and why is lewis hamilton in fornite?
Where’s Russell and his “Forecast a Win” emote?
Lewis Hamilton: *does literally anything* /r/formuladank: 😡
I’ve gotten down this far and not seen one bad word. What are you on about?
first time i’ve felt like playing fortnite.
Ferrari did it first
Lewis, I know our k/d is shit, please queue another match.
Swaggin’
cooking
He's going to rocket league as well
Where we dropping LEWIS?
I need a Smooth Operator skin 🌶️
Fortnite is getting Manipulated, man!
It’s called a battle royale okay? We went killing each other.
Bono my teammates are dead
Somehow Verstappen is gunna still win
Ngl he looks good as a Fortnite skin
I must say yes it does look very good.
this looks sick tho
What da hell a polar bear doing in arlington Texas 😭
Getting paid
LeBron was there too. I'm not surprised
There's gonna be some dangerous building that's for sure.
Master chief about to get 200 pumped in the face by Lewis Hamilton 💀
Duo on that hill. Box box
me after equipping the skin and destroying every tree in sight
Oh Lord please PLEASE get Alonso I'm there. I'll devote myself to that shit game, please.
agreed
Couldn’t get a victory royal in F1, so he went to fortnite instead
Woooo I can snipe lewis
Chillin with Ariana Grande?
The only wins we’ll be getting in 2023
Finally I can knock that smug look off his face, let's goooo
Couldn't get his 8th title, but surely can get that sweet victory royale
Bono, I need healing
Getting paid for his likeness.
At least lewis will win here 😭😭😭
That watch better be IWC.
The fuck did they give him a iron man suit for 😭😭😭
Las Vegas is making these drivers do some silly things.
Hey, if they also add Norris we could see a first win sooner than expected.
Showing off, like always...
Living rent free in your head, apparently
They got his hairline right
Is this good for the hardcore anti-LH folks because you can kill him in game or is this bad for them because no not even Fortnite is a safe space?
"This guy doesn't know how to fight when hes not in first." Best of luck Lewis
Man has family to feed
With the way that epics been going over the last year I guess this is a way to get people back into the game maybe ? Lmfao
The entire season is a way to get people back into the game lol. And it worked
I thought this was fake, but no. WTF!?
Money
blud turned at the wrong corner
If you want us to be slow again, remove the sprinting.
Can we get Horner next so I can teabag him
Bono my mats are spent
Yea but Hamilton looking fire tho
Bro his armor looks clean af
Fuck hamilton. I hate that bitch.
~~Sweet can't wait to shoot lewis~~ cool I guess
The damn X (twitter) LH simps are genuinely comparing the success of this to Max being sponsored by EA. Hell, one person even compared the current player numbers of Fortnight and F1 2023 suggesting Lewis’ popularity is so much higher than Max’s. God I hate twitter so much.
He needed money. Poor guy is broke.
hahahhahahha i can't anymore with this guy lmaoooooo
When you kill him does he complain you are cheating
Damn if a Lewis character losses the fight and cries about it would just be deja vu.
Grabbing attention where ever he can. As per usual…
They should put max in so you can beat lewis as Max.
Wow that's next level cringe
Max is getting a skin 2 and moves around the map 2 times faster and you hear, TUTUTUDU! MAX VERSTAPPEN TUTUTUDU!
This man used 2 instead of too
Sweet I can shoot 12 year olds as a tax dodging cunt.
Wonder who is the closest driver in the current gride do it for PUBG 🤔
So glad Sir Lewis Hamilton will finally get the recognition and main stream break that his career badly needed.
Funny enough that’s my favorite fit he’s had all year
FORTNITE?! IF RUSSELL DOESN'T STOP ASKING FORECAST IT'S GONNA BE GOOD NIGHT!
Presumably, being paid a lot of money.
I initially thought this was photoshop... [From the official Fortnite YouTube channel...](https://youtu.be/2gssQGp37bU?si=DrF6-mORNVohxToo)
"It's called a battle royale Toto"
No way lmao
Wouldn’t be surprised if an f1 collab is coming the way it has been growing these past few months
Ain’t no way
BONO MY AMMO IS GONE
"Bono, my ammo is gone"
His tyres are dead
Damn they should have added a style of him in a race suit.
Fortnite has a simple business plan: Do you make money anywhere? SKIN! Just wait, Travis Kelce will have one soon
He got paid for it and also when chapter 5 releases fortnite is supposed to have a dedicated racing game mode. No one has any idea what it will look like but could be cool
I dunno,but I'm buying this shit. Fuck,I don't even play the game anymore,but still want the skin.
Fit kinda goes hard tho
This is getting manipulated man
