On the topic of Fortnite, the Cursed Sails Event arrives on July 19th, kickstarting the highly anticipated Fortnite x Pirates of the Caribbean collaboration. The event was available earlier due to a bug, and many could grab the Jack Sparrow skin beforehand. Now, the pass is officially arriving for the others to acquire the skin of the iconic pirate. The Pirates of the Caribbean crew will be sold through the item shop.
