ORLANDO, Fla. — Halloween Horror Nights is putting a twisted spin on the global video game phenomenon, Fortnite, with an immersive and thrilling scare zone inspired by Fortnitemares, the game’s signature Halloween event.
It will debut this fall at Universal Orlando Resort, beginning Aug. 28, and at Universal Studios Hollywood on Sept. 3.
“Fortnite is a global ecosystem where players create, compete, and hang out with friends in an always-evolving world,” Universal Orlando said in a news release. “It’s highly-anticipated fall in-game event, Fortnitemares, brings new characters and horror-themed gameplay together every year.”
Halloween Horror Nights fans will have the chance to “drop in” to the world of Fortnitemares with an all-new scare zone, featuring ever-evolving and high-stakes environments.
Guests will enter Freaky Fields, a Halloween-inspired living battleground overcome with a threatening force. Throughout the scare zone, fans will encounter the Battle Bus along with familiar Fortnitemares characters – plus a few new additions exclusive to Halloween Horror Nights – as they work to escape and claim victory.
New merchandise inspired by the Fortnitemares scare zone — including a graphic tee, decal set, and acrylic collectible piece — is available now at Universal Orlando Resort and Universal Studios Hollywood, and on ShopUniversal.com starting Thursday at noon.
Halloween Horror Nights runs select nights at Universal Orlando Resort beginning Friday, Aug. 28 through Sunday, Nov. 1, and at Universal Studios Hollywood from Thursday, Sept. 3 through Sunday, Nov. 1.
