WD teams up with Epic Games and Nintendo for officially licensed SanDisk Fortnite microSD cards

We've seen a number of officially licensed SD cards for the Nintendo Switch over the years, and now the roster is expanding with new Fortnite designs from WD's SanDisk. 

This week, Western Digital announced a new partnership with Epic Games and Nintendo to deliver the first officially licensed Fortnite SanDisk microSDXC card for the Nintendo Switch. These will be available in both 128GB and 256GB sizes, giving you plenty of extra room to store digital games on the Switch.

The designs are inspired by the Skull Trooper and Cuddle Team Leader outfits from Fortnite. Those who pick up one of these SD cards will get a code with it, which will grant you a rare Angular Flow Wrap in Fortnite.

As a licensed SD Card, it has been fully tested and approved for the Nintendo Switch, and you get a lifetime warranty too for peace of mind. In terms of speed, you'll get read speeds up to 100MB/s and write speeds up to 90MB/s.

The Fortnite SanDisk microSDXC card for Nintendo Switch retails for £24.99 (128GB) and £42.99 (256GB) and is available now at select Western Digital retailers, e-tailers and on the Western Digital online store.

KitGuru Says: The Nintendo Switch's internal storage doesn't give much space, so a microSD card is almost a necessity. Are you currently looking to pick up a microSD card for your Switch?
