Ice Spice Takes Over Fortnite: New Skins, Weapons, and Ice Isle Spark Mixed Reactions

Fortnite has welcomed the latest addition to its Icon Series with the arrival of rapper Ice Spice, bringing a slew of new content to the game. As part of the Chapter 2 Remix update, Ice Spice has transformed Shark Island into Ice Isle, a new point of interest (POI) decorated in her style.

The update includes two new skins: the Ice Spice and Rap Princess Ice Spice outfits, each priced at 1,500 V-Bucks. However, players have expressed dissatisfaction with these new cosmetics, citing a trend where recent Icon Series skins are released in pairs rather than as a single skin with alternate edit styles. This has led to complaints that the two Ice Spice skins look too similar, with the same hair, face, and necklace.

In addition to the skins, players can acquire Ice Spice’s Grappler and Rifle Mythics by defeating her on the island. Other cosmetics available include the In Ha Mood and Oh Shhh emotes, the Iced Out Mic microphone, and various back blings. These items are part of the Ice Spice bundle, which costs 2,800 V-Bucks and includes all the mentioned items.

Ice Spice’s inclusion in Fortnite is part of a broader Chapter 2 Remix rollout that also features the debut of Juice WRLD and collaborations with other artists like Eminem and Snoop Dogg. The rapper expressed her excitement about the collaboration, noting that it earned her “big sister cool points” from her younger siblings who play the game.
