Dunder Mifflin Meets Battle Royale

In one of the most unexpected yet highly requested collaborations in gaming history, Epic Games has officially released The Office crossover in Fortnite. As of late January 2026, players can now drop into Tilted Towers as the staff of the Scranton Business Park.

This collaboration brings the chaotic energy of the beloved sitcom directly into the game, complete with deep-cut references that die-hard fans will appreciate. From legendary dance moves to iconic props, The Office set is arguably one of the most detailed sitcom adaptations Fortnite has ever seen.

The Skins: Michael Scott and Dwight Schrute

The collaboration centers around two main outfits: Michael Scott and Dwight Schrute. Epic Games has utilized the likenesses of Steve Carell and Rainn Wilson to bring these characters to life with surprising accuracy.

Michael Scott Variants

The Regional Manager himself is ready to lead his squad to a Victory Royale.

  • Default Style: Michael in his classic navy blue suit.
  • “Date Mike” Style: A hilarious edit style featuring the backwards Kangol hat and unbuttoned collar from the “Happy Hour” episode. Nice to meet me.

Dwight Schrute Variants

The Assistant (to the) Regional Manager comes prepared for survival scenarios.

  • Default Style: Dwight in his signature mustard yellow shirt and tie.
  • “CPR Dummy” Style: A terrifying nod to the “Stress Relief” episode, featuring Dwight wearing the face of the CPR dummy as a mask.

Emotes and Cosmetics: The Scarn and Dundies

It wouldn’t be The Office without some ridiculous accessories. The bundle is packed with “Easter eggs” from the show’s nine-season run.

  • Pickaxes:
    • The Dundie Award: Swing the coveted trophy at your opponents.
    • Broom-Stake: A reference to Dwight’s makeshift weapon.
  • Back Blings:
    • World’s Best Boss Mug: Michael’s prized possession sits on your back.
    • CPR Dummy: The faceless dummy torso for Dwight.
  • Glider:
    • Megadesk: Deploy a glider made of three desks combined—because why have one desk when you can have three?
  • Emotes:
    • The Scarn: You can finally do Michael’s movie dance in-game. Jump to the right and you shake a hand…
    • Dwight’s Lil’ Lead Car: A traversal emote referencing Dwight’s antics.
  • Kicks:
    • Kevin’s Dress Shoes: Actually just tissue boxes worn as shoes, a nod to Kevin Malone’s wedding attire disaster.

Release Date and Bundle Cost

The collaboration officially launched in the Item Shop on Friday, January 23, 2026.

Players can purchase items individually or as a complete set.

  • The Office Bundle: Approximately 3,000 V-Bucks (Discounted from the total value of 6,500 V-Bucks).
  • Individual Skins: 1,500 V-Bucks each (Includes Back Bling).
  • Gear Bundle: 1,500 – 1,800 V-Bucks for the Glider, Pickaxes, and Emotes.

Conclusion

Whether you are cranking 90s as “Date Mike” or hitting “The Scarn” after a squad wipe, The Office collaboration offers a perfect blend of nostalgia and gameplay. It is a limited-time event, so if you want to bring the spirit of Scranton to the island, make sure to grab the bundle before it rotates out of the shop.
