To go along with the base skin, some new items have also released alongside Grimes to give players a bit more in-game flair. Specifically, a spiked club, a satellite, and a piece of Backblin resembling the duffle bag that Grimes carries with him have all now come to Fortnite. 

As a whole, this Grimes skin isn't the first time that Fortnite has collaborated with The Walking Dead. In the past, two skins based on Michonne and Daryl Dixon from The Walking Dead television series have also been released before. To go along with the launch of this skin based on Grimes, Epic Games opted to also bring back the outfits associated with Michonne and Daryl as well. So if you're a fan of The Walking Dead and want that to be reflected in Fortnite, now is your chance to snag all of these skins before they disappear.
