Revision 7

Overview

As part of a promotional collaboration between Pearl Abyss and Epic Games, a Fortnite cosmetic based on Crimson Desert protagonist Kliff was made available to players who purchased the game through the Epic Games Store. The Kliff Outfit is a free bonus for anyone who buys Crimson Desert on EGS, and it became redeemable starting March 19, 2026, the same day the game officially launched.

Epic Games first revealed the Kliff Outfit on March 12, 2026. The promotion is not time-limited: it remains active as long as Crimson Desert is listed for sale on the Epic Games Store. Players who prefer not to purchase Crimson Desert can expect the Kliff Outfit to appear in the Fortnite Item Shop at a later date, where it will be available for V-Bucks.

The Kliff Outfit

The Kliff Outfit is an Epic-rarity Fortnite skin modeled after Kliff Macduff's default appearance from Crimson Desert's promotional materials. It features his signature rugged black armor, jet black hair, and the distinctive blue war paint streaks across his face. The skin reflects the look players see throughout the main story and marketing trailers.

Despite being a crossover cosmetic tied to a video game, the Kliff Outfit is not classified under Fortnite's Gaming Legends series. It instead falls under Epic Games' broader program of bundling Fortnite cosmetics with purchases of games sold on the Epic Games Store.

How to Get the Skin for Free

The Kliff Outfit is automatically granted at no additional cost to any player who purchases Crimson Desert on the Epic Games Store. This applies to both pre-launch purchases and post-launch purchases. There is no separate redemption step needed beyond owning the game on EGS.

Requirements

• Epic Games Store purchase required: Only purchases made through the Epic Games Store qualify. Buying Crimson Desert on Steam or another storefront does not include the Fortnite promotion.

• Same account: The Epic Games account used to purchase Crimson Desert must be the same account used to play Fortnite. If your accounts are linked across platforms, the outfit will appear in your Fortnite locker automatically.

• No expiration: The offer does not have a deadline. It will remain available for as long as Crimson Desert is sold on the Epic Games Store.

Key Dates

Item Shop Availability

Epic Games has indicated that the Kliff Outfit will eventually be sold in the Fortnite Item Shop, allowing players to purchase it with V-Bucks without needing to own Crimson Desert. A specific date for the Item Shop listing has not been announced. Most Fortnite collaboration outfits in the Epic rarity tier are priced between 1,500 and 1,800 V-Bucks, though the final price for the Kliff Outfit has not been confirmed.

Relation to Edition Content

The Fortnite Kliff Outfit is separate from the in-game Pre-Order and Edition Content bonuses that come with Crimson Desert itself. Pre-order bonuses (such as in-game items, mounts, or cosmetics within Crimson Desert) apply regardless of which storefront is used, while the Fortnite Outfit is exclusively tied to the Epic Games Store version.

Players who purchased Crimson Desert on Steam receive the standard pre-order bonuses within Crimson Desert but do not receive the Fortnite Kliff Outfit. Conversely, players who buy on the Epic Games Store receive both the in-game pre-order content and the Fortnite cosmetic.

Tips

• If you already own Crimson Desert on the Epic Games Store, check your Fortnite locker. The Kliff Outfit should appear there automatically.

• Make sure your Epic Games account is properly linked if you play Fortnite on console. The outfit is granted to the Epic account that owns Crimson Desert, and it carries over to all linked platforms.

• If the outfit does not appear after purchasing Crimson Desert, try restarting Fortnite. If the issue persists, contact Epic Games support.

• If you are on the fence about which storefront to buy Crimson Desert on, the free Fortnite skin is one factor that may tip the decision toward the Epic Games Store.
