The skin includes three outfits: one of James as a king, another of him wearing a shirt with a taco on it (think Taco Tuesday) and a final one featuring him with the Tune Squad. The release of the skin coincides with upcoming debut of his Space Jam: A New Legacy film, which is set to hit theaters and HBOMax on Friday.

LeBron is the first NBA star to receive a Fortnite skin in his likeness. Athletes in other sports, like Neymar and Harry Kane, have their own skins.
