Fortnite previously announced a collaboration with seven-time F1 champion Lewis Hamilton. The 'Hamilton Set' was released on 17 November 2023 and includes a Lewis Hamilton Outfit with the Rocket-Ready Roscoe and Pole Positioner Back Blings and Pickaxe.

“I got the opportunity to be in Fortnite. It’s a game that I played for a long time, but I said only if Roscoe could be in it," Hamilton told GQ. “They were like, ‘No problem.’ So Roscoe is in my jet pack hovering behind me as he’s my sidekick.”
