As the 2019 World Cup Champion, Kyle "Bugha" Giersdorf has now been immortalised in Fortnite with his own Icon Series skin.

The American teenager is best known for his $3,000,000 coup at the World Cup Championships in 2019, and has since been one of the most influential streamers on the game. Currently signed under the Sentinels banner, Bugha remains as a top-tier competitor, as well as one of the most-viewed streamers on the game.

Now, Fortnite has commended his value to the title, and awarded him his own in-game skin, depicting his look and personality.

Bugha's Fortnite Icon Series Skin

The skin comes with three variants. The first is a relaxed streamer vibe, showing Bugha in his typical joggers t-shirt and trainers.

Secondly is the World Cup variant, which showcases off the iconic jacket Bugha wore when taking home the first ever Fortnite World Cup.

Finally, the look can be topped off with a cap, highlighting the reactive electric blue and imprinted with "world champion".

The streamer also has a back bling and melee weapon dedicated to his successes and his dog, Zoe. The World Cup holds Zoe the pug, and her name is calved into the handles of his duel-wield scythe's. 

How To Get The Bugha Bundle In Fortnite

The bundle is live in the store, which will include the three skin variants, back bling, and an emote of the same victory dance as Bugha pulled out n 2019.

Bugha showcased the skin alongside two further Icons' in Tyler "Ninja" Blevins and David "Grefg" Cánovas Martínez.

The skin also lands with a Limited time Gamemode, which will highlight the competitive approach on trios.
