Manchester City, Puma launch new home kit with Fortnite integration

Manchester City and Puma are sharing early glimpses of the Premier League-leading club’s new home kit in Fortnite. The digital uniforms will be available in five games built by users in Fortnite’s Creator Worlds, including Atlas Hiding Game, 2v2 Realistics, Chess, Ultimate Hide & Seek and Easy Obby. Man City also recently added its first pro esports player for Fortnite, Joshua ‘Cold’ Butler.

Those Puma-designed kits became available today along with the global unveiling of next season’s apparel, which highlight Manchester’s 0161 local calling code. The replica jerseys available to fans are made from Puma’s Re:Fibre recycling technology with at least 95% recycled textile waste.
