Hasbro Unveils Fortnite Branded Nerf Guns for New York Toy Fair

Just ahead of New York Toy Fair, Hasbro has unveiled a new line of Nerf guns based on Epic Games' Fortnite. The line includes two guns based on weapons found in the game, the SP-L blaster and the AR-L rifle.

The NERF SP-L blaster was inspired by the blaster used in Fortnite and replicates the look and colors of the game weapon.

The official item description for the SP-L reads:

The NERF FORTNITE SP-L blaster is inspired by the blaster used in FORTNITE, replicating the look and colors of the one from the popular video game! Play FORTNITE in real life with this NERF ELITE blaster that has a detachable barrel to customise for different ways to play. Attach the barrel for distance targeting; remove the barrel when you need a more compact look for smaller play areas or when you need to move fast and stay mobile. The FORTNITE SP-L blaster has an internal clip with a 3-dart capacity, so you can load 3 darts in a row before it's time to reload. Insert 3 darts, prime, and pull the trigger to fire. It comes with 6 Official NERF darts that are designed for distance, tested and approved for performance and quality, and constructed of foam with flexible, hollow tips. Drop into indoor and outdoor FORTNITE action with this dart-firing NERF ELITE FORTNITE blaster! Includes: blaster, 6 darts, and instructions. Hand-powered, no batteries required.

The NERF AR-L is based on the popular game's basic assault rifle and replicates the look and colors from the gun in the game.

The official item description for the AR-L reads:

Power up the motor with the acceleration button and pull the trigger to shoot 1 dart. It comes with a 10-dart clip and 20 Official NERF ELITE FORTNITE darts, enough to fully load the clip and give you 10 backup darts for reloading. Flip up the 2 sights on the top of the blaster to align your shot. Official NERF darts are designed for distance, tested and approved for performance and quality, and constructed of foam with flexible, hollow tips.

The new NERF line also includes a series of three Fortnite branded Microshot weapons.

The description for the Microshots reads:

NERF MICROSHOTS series blasters capture the iconic look of the original blasters but in a scrunched-down style all their own. Their look and size makes them collectible additions to any NERF collection. These NERF MICROSHOTS FORTNITE blasters are inspired by the blasters used in the popular FORTNITE video game. Blasters in this assortment include the TS, RL, and LLAMA. Each blaster includes 2 Official NERF ELITE darts and fires 1 dart at a time with hand-powered action.
