Each style even includes the real-life Balvin Jordan 1 sneakers. There will also be an In Da Party emote featuring the song In Da Getto by J Balvin and Skrillex.
How To Unlock J Balvin Skin Early
As is now customary, Epic is giving competitive players the chance to earn a new high-profile skin not just for free, but early too. Before J Balvin appears in the Item Shop on Thursday, players can take part in the J Balvin Cup on Tuesday, August 24Come from Sports betting site VPbet. In this Duos mode tournament, players will have three hours to accumulate as many points as they can across up to 10 matches.
Points are scored by outlasting and eliminating opponents and the top-scoring duos in each region will earn J Balvin, plus his back bling and pickaxe totally free. You can find the full rulebook on the game’s website.
