Nintendo of Europe has announced a new Switch bundle featuring a bunch of content for Epic Games' perennially popular battle royale game, Fortnite.

Due out on October 5, the Switch Fortnite bundle adds 1000 V-Bucks to splash out in the shooter, plus a Double Helix item bundle, which features a 'unique character outfit, back bling, glider, and pickaxe.'

Unlike the recent Pokemon Let's Go! and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Switch bundles, the Fortnite version just features a regular console with no special paintjob or anything. So yeah, don't get too excited about it. 

Speaking of Fortnite, the latest update is out now and includes the new Spiky Stadium for Playground mode and the defensive-based port-a-fortress grenade.
