Fortnite brings Captain America and others back for the Fourth of July

Fortnite is celebrating July 4th in a big way this year with the return of Captain America.

It’s the Fourth of July in the United States, the official birthday of the country. It’s a day everyone gets off (mostly everyone), a day where cookouts are the norm and fireworks light up the night sky as if they were the stars themselves.

It’s a time for celebration here in the states, and Fortnite is getting into that spirit and has launched a few items in the store that may make Fortnite fans go and get show their patriotism this holiday.

Among the items back in the store is Captain America, the Marvel hero himself. With his iconic shield and star-spangled design, he’s the perfect character to bring back for the holiday. He’ll not be coming alone, however. Three other outfits are back as well, with Fireworks Team Leader, Star-Spangled Trooper Outfit, the Star-Spangled Ranger Outfit, and the Nitrojerry.

What else is in the store that gets you in the holiday mood?

Ranking the five USA-themed outfits

Tied 5. Star-Spangled Trooper Outfit

The Star-Spangled Trooper is a simple design that is barely any different than the standard costumes you get for free when you start playing Fortnite. Nothing to worth investing your money into unless you’re treating this game as Pokemon; gotta catch them all.

Tied 5. Star-Spangled Ranger Outfi

The Ranger outfit is on par with the Trooper outfit in regards to its basicness.

3. Nitrojerry

A giant firework isn’t exactly my cup of tea, but he’s certainly a unique-looking item. Nitrojerry is certainly one of a kind, and that should make him very unique to Fortnite fans.

2. Fireworks Team Leader

Creepy combat bears are a thing in Fortnite, and the Team Leaders are among the more interesting looks in the game. Fireworks Team Leader takes it to a very patriotic level.

1. Captain America

if you have a shield, you’re instantly number one on any list. Them’s the rules. That’s why Captain America is No. 1.
