There aren't any more details at the moment on the Fortnite X Nike Air Max crossover, but as pointed out by Fortnite leaker HYPEX, the collab will offer an "immersive, and first-of-it's-kind Air Max themed experience". It will reportedly feature skins and cosmetics designed by Nike, as well as rewards for .Swoosh members.

.Swoosh is Nike's web3-enabled platform that released its first NFT sneaker collection in May of this year, with over $1 million in sales. Nike has already announced plans with EA to see "virtual creations" in EA Sports games. EA did clarify to IGN that it has no plans to release Nike NFTs and is just looking to bring .Swoosh digital items into EA Sports games.
