To celebrate the Euro 2020 tournament - which which kicks off on Friday (11.06.21) after being postponed last summer due to the pandemic - Epic Games has confirmed the England captain is coming to the popular title.

Coinciding with the start of the cup, both Kane and Germany star Marco Reus will be part of a new Icon Series squad.

In a blog post, the 'Fortnite' team said: "On June 11 at 8pm ET, both players’ likeness will be available as separate Outfits or together in the Kane & Reus Bundle."

Harry and Marcus come with a HurriKane and Marcinho emote respectively.

Epic Games added: "After some friendly competition to start Chapter 2 Season 7, the real competition heats up with the Fortnite UEFA EURO 2020 Cup starting June 16, 2021.

"Compete for the opportunity to earn prize money as well as in-game cosmetic rewards."

The in-game tournament will "span two days with one round each day", with the first open to all eligible players - and the top performers moving onto the second.

The team confirmed: "Europe, NA East, Na West, Brazil - Top 1,000 players from each region will advance from Round 1 to Round 2.

"Middle East, Asia, Oceania - Top 500 players from each region will advance from Round 1 to Round 2."

From there, the top performing players in the second round will "earn a share of the $50,000 prize pool".
