Jim Lee, DC's chief creative officer and publisher, told comicbook.com: "It's the 80th anniversary of the Dark Knight and we wanted to do something extra special for fans all around the world for Batman Day.

"I can't imagine anything bigger than letting the legions of Fortnite players take on the cowl and enter the world of Gotham City via Tilted Towers! Epic Games has really outdone themselves in bringing the world of Batman to Battle Royale!"
