The collaboration was launched at 7 PM ET on December 13, featuring two unique outfits inspired by Messi himself: the original Lionel Messi Outfit and the Streetwear Spark Messi Outfit. The original outfit is particularly innovative, allowing players to switch between Messi’s traditional field uniform and two alternate forms—Stealth Lion Messi and Gold Lion Messi—through the special The Mane Event Emote.
For a more casual look, the Streetwear Spark Messi Outfit offers a stylish, laid-back alternative that also interacts dynamically with the game’s virtual environment. With this outfit, players can showcase their love for soccer in a fun and creative way.
Additionally, the collaboration includes the #1 Fan Llama Emote, which adds a whimsical touch to the gameplay by displaying a colorful llama pinata, providing a playful nod to both Messi's legacy and Fortnite's signature humor.
