Starting on January 23, Fortnite players will be able to represent their favourite football team with officially licensed skins. Not only that, but players will be able to purchase the new Kickoff Set and Pelé’s Air Punch Emote, with the potential to get them earlier by participating in the Pelé Cup on January 20.

You’ll be able to choose from 10 different variants of both male and female Outfits, with the option to swap to any one of the 23 kits available. These include:

Manchester City FC
Juventus
AC Milan
Inter Milan
AS Roma
Seattle Sounders FC
Atlanta United FC
Los Angeles FC
Santos FC
Wolverhampton Wanderers FC
West Ham United FC
Sevilla FC
Sporting CP
Borussia Mönchengladbach
FC Schalke 04
VFL Wolfsburg
Rangers FC
Celtic FC
Cerezo Osaka
Melbourne City FC
Sydney FC
Western Sydney Wanderers
EC Bahia

Epic has partnered with Brazilian football icon Pelé to bring his legendary celebration to the game, and if you become a top scorer in the Pelé Cup, you could win a signed shirt. There’s also a new Creative island where players will be able to use loads of power-ups to outscore their opponents in a 4v4 bracket-type game mode. Each game will feature two rounds, with the winner advancing to the final.
