Epic Games and the Brazilian soccer player Neymar are causing a probable appearance of the star of the Fifteen days on March 16, with tips through some tweets. Eurogamer first reported the news, including a tweeted video from Epic Games’ account showing Neymar’s shirt 10. Neymar retweeted the video with the “eyes” emoji – not exactly a confirmation, but another clue that something is forming.
So details about exactly how Neymar can appear in Fortnite are still scarce, but how Engadget points out, it is arriving at the same time that the single-player mission Zero Crisis Finale – which is the focus of the video teaser – is launched. Neymar himself has not played football (or football, you name it) since he suffered an injury several months ago.
Live events in Fifteen days proved to be extremely popular, with a 2019 Marshmello show attracting 10 million people, which was a record event for the game at the time, and a performance last year by Travis Scott, which also took place within Fifteen days, attracted more than 12 million people. In January, developer Epic Games pledged $ 20 million for e-sports in Fifteen days in 2021.
