EL SEGUNDO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mattel, Inc. (NASDAQ: MAT), a leading global toy and family entertainment company and owner of one of the most iconic brand portfolios in the world, today announced the early access launch of Masters of the Universe™: He-Man Heroes, its first official island in Fortnite. Players can jump in now by searching “He-Man Heroes” or entering Island Code “2416-8649-3961” to explore a new world that brings the legendary characters of Eternia into a dynamic collectible role-playing game (RPG) designed for today’s audiences. Masters of the Universe: He-Man Heroes marks Mattel’s first entry into the Fortnite creator platform, introducing one of its flagship properties to a massive global audience in an all-new format.

Ron Friedman, Vice President of Mattel Future Lab, said: “He-Man has always stood for power, heroism, and imaginative adventure. Masters of the Universe: He-Man Heroes brings Eternia to Fortnite in a fresh way that is easy to jump into, but has plenty of strategy for those who want to dig deeper, creating an experience that’s fun, fast, and unmistakably He-Man. This launch expands Mattel’s presence to one of today’s most dynamic and influential gaming platforms, using interactive storytelling to build community and enjoy Masters of the Universe as never before.”

Masters of the Universe: He-Man Heroes invites players to begin their journey with a single hero and fight their way through increasingly difficult zones filled with opponents. Key features include collecting Shards of Eternia to summon new heroes, building powerful teams of up to four iconic characters, engaging in combat, and boosting hero power to take on greater challenges across Eternia.

Masters of the Universe: He-Man Heroes is now available in Early Access and free for all Fortnite players, with ongoing support, gameplay updates, and additional content planned post-launch based on community feedback.

The experience was developed by Mattel in partnership with Loot Foundry using Unreal Editor for Fortnite (UEFN).
