The Long-Awaited Bao Brothers Skin Finally Appeared in the Fortnite Store

Many players have been keeping a close eye on the Fortnite item shop for months, just to see these fresh characters after they were leaked a few months ago.

Several crossovers have been seen in the free-to-play game as time has passed, seemingly putting Epic Games' plans to add the Bao Brothers on hold for quite some time. However, they have now been released.

How to get the Bao Brothers Fortnite skin

Those who want to run around the Fortnite island looking like a battle dumpling will have to be prepared to shell out for these new cosmetics.

They are not part of any challenge reward list. Instead, they have been added to the Fortnite Item Shop.

The Bao Brothers set itself costs 1500 V-Bucks and is epic in terms of its rarity. After the December 30th release, it's hard to tell how long the pack will be available for purchase.

The Bao Brothers set also comes with a newly minted harvesting tool «superspoon«.

In terms of content, the full set includes four different styles - as seen in the images above - allowing owners to easily switch from one skin to another between matches if they wish.

It is also equipped with a new back decoration "Pelmeni Basket", which means you can carry a fresh dish on your back.

This is what the new Bao Brothers cosmetics "Bao Basket" looks like.

With this new set fresh on the market and definitely a hot topic among the game's online community, it's unlikely that Epic will remove it from the store anytime soon.

However, those who want to make sure makeup is in their locker before the window of opportunity closes may want to act quickly. As we've seen with other packs in the past, once they disappear, it takes a while to see them back in the merchandise store.
