Epic Games wants to increase Fortnite's roster of celebrities, though that seems to have been true for years now. Typically, we'd expect Ariana Grande or Keanu Reeves, but occasionally the Item Shop ships with a popular Fortnite personality.
Ninja has had his own skin for quite some time, yet streamers are still joining the action-packed lineup. Clix is hopping into Fortnite soon, so here's how you can play as the talented content creator.

Clix gained notoriety by qualifying for the action-packed Fortnite World Cup in 2019. He was only 14 years old at the time, so many fans were immediately impressed with his skills. In the recent press release, Clix is quoted saying, "Joining the Icon Series is literally a dream come true."
The exciting new costume comes equipped with two styles. One is the default version of Cody 'Clix' Conrad, while the other is titled Gamer Clix. Not all skins have secondary styles, so it's special that his outfit has a few options.
