Summary
Fans of Disney’sPirates of the Caribbeanreceived a treat recently, in which they could take some of their favorite characters from the franchise and use them inFortniteacross various modes. Whether players duke it out in Battle Royale, rock to some music inFortniteFestival, or even build a plastic life with LEGO, theFortnitexPirates of the Caribbeancollab makes all of these even more enjoyable.
Yet, with an additional 5 skins added to the roster, it begs the question of how these outfits rank up against each other, and which of them claims the title of the pirate king and the bestPirates of the Caribbeanoutfit inFortnite.
5Elizabeth Swann
The Pirate King
Elizabeth Swann seems like a great choice forFortnite. After all, she’s the greatest female character inPirates of the Caribbeanand holds her own against the likes of Will Turner and Jack Sparrow. Nevertheless, her outfit inFortniteseems a tad bland, as she doesn’t resemble Keira Knightley much, and the outfit isn’t adorned with many colors and is simply an overcoat and an optional hat.
Elizabeth Swann has had one of the best character developments in a movie trilogy. Starting out as a noble daughter of a Governor, Elizabeth Swann would find her heart seeking bravery and romance when she found herself in a crusade with and against pirates. Elizabeth has a strong heart and a talent for leadership, and it’s great to see her get recognition inFortnite.
4Captain Barbossa
A Legendary Pirate Who Makes His Own Fate
it’s great to see Captain Barbossa leave his desires for fortune and the Black Pearl behind to seewhat all the fuss is about withFortnite. As a pirate skin, Barbossa has everything players would need. An oversized hat, a detailed garb, but a severe lack of something… This skin would have been rated higher if it came with his pet monkey, Jack.
Captain Barbossa is one of the best pirates to ever live. He’s a man who mainly serves himself and shows thatthe Pirate’s Codeis something that can be rather flexible to suit one’s self. Running aroundFortnitewith Barbossa seems like a blast, but just be careful he doesn’t try and steal loot since he’s always been a crafty one.
3Cursed Jack Sparrow
The Curse Of Stealing Aztec Gold
It’s surprising to see Cursed Jack Sparrow as aFortniteoutfit when the likes of Will Turner are missing from the roster. Nevertheless, it’s a welcome surprise, for the skin looks ghastly in all the right ways. It’s a rare skin for the fact thatFortnitedoesn’t do actual skeleton outfits, probably because of how thin they appear, since Jack’s left arm isliterally a bonewith plenty of area to see through.
The face is perhaps the best part, as although it’s cool to see the tattered outfit, the skull with the human eyes is a really great touch that adds an element ofmystical creepiness. It’s Jack’s own fault he looks like that since he shouldn’t have touched any Aztec gold.
2Davy Jones
The Captain Of The Flying Dutchman
The dreaded horror that rules the Seven Seas, Davy Jones is a force to be reckoned with. Davy Jones may becursed to haunt the oceansfor eternity, but that doesn’t mean he can’t take a quick break and see what’s happening inFortnite. The outfit here is near perfect to his movie counterpart, complete with his crab peg leg and his left arm being a claw.
Whilst these setbacks might make it seem like Davy Jones is a poor choice for a squad mate, players should not judge his ability in a fight. After all, this is the legendary Davy Jones, who still looks as good as he did when he appeared almost 20 years ago, played by Bill Nighy.
1Jack Sparrow
The Best (And Worst) Pirate Who Ever Lived
Whilst Jack Sparrow might be regarded as the worst pirate who ever lived, it’s hard to deny his appeal. His sass and mannerisms make hima respectable drunk, and a pirate that everyone wants on their team. Jack Sparrow rarely has a plan, but somehow always manages to come out on top thanks to a lucky streak that doesn’t seem to end, and that lucky streak sees him take the title of the bestPirates of the Caribbeanskin inFortnite.
The resemblance to Johnny Depp is pretty good, but the poses and emotes that make Jack Sparrow so unique are all here inFortnite, along with his iconic pirate garb. It’s instantly recognizable, so why not jump into Battle Royale with this shifty pirate?
